Booking Terms and Conditions

Last updated: 29 October 2026

These terms apply to boudoir photography sessions, consultations, products, digital photographs and related services supplied by Justyna Ciemierz trading as Cherry & Bow, of Room 8, 48 Loons Road, Dundee, DD3 6AP (“Cherry & Bow”, “we”, “us” or “our”). Please read them before booking. They should be read with our Cancellation Policy, Privacy Statement and Image Disclaimer.

1. Your booking

A request is not confirmed until we accept it and any booking fee or deposit stated in the quotation or booking information has been paid. We will then reserve the agreed date and send confirmation. Please check the details and contact us promptly if anything is incorrect. You are responsible for providing current contact information and checking your inbox, including its spam folder.

All boudoir participants must be at least 18 years old. Each participant must freely agree to take part and must be comfortable with the agreed session. The person making a booking for more than one adult confirms that each participant knows about and agrees to the booking. We may ask for reasonable proof of age where appropriate.

2. Prices and payment

The price, package, booking fee, balance and payment dates are those stated in the booking information, quotation, invoice or confirmation. Unless stated otherwise, a booking fee forms part of the total price. Any balance must be paid by the due date shown on your invoice or confirmation. If payment is overdue, we may pause work or release the session date after giving you a reasonable opportunity to resolve the matter.

Additional photographs, prints, albums, delivery and optional editing are charged only where you request or approve them. Extra images selected through a private gallery must be paid for before final high-resolution files are released. Online payments may be processed by PayPal; Cherry & Bow does not receive or store your complete card number or security code.

3. Consultation and preparation

Please provide accurate information needed to plan and safely deliver your session. This may include accessibility requirements, allergies, mobility concerns, relevant restrictions or other details you choose to share. Please avoid sending unnecessary medical or intimate information. Contact Justyna before the session if you have questions about clothing, styling, poses, props, boundaries or anything else that may affect your comfort.

Preparation guidance, agreed arrival times and the practical details discussed with you form part of the arrangements for your session.

4. Attendance and conduct

Please arrive at the agreed time. A late arrival may mean that the session is shortened so that other commitments are not affected. If you are so late that the session cannot reasonably go ahead, it may be treated under our Cancellation Policy.

We may pause, change or end a session if continuing would be unsafe, unlawful, abusive, seriously disruptive or outside the agreed service. We will aim to handle concerns calmly and proportionately. Smoking, vaping, illegal substances and threatening or abusive conduct are not permitted in the studio. You are responsible for reasonable repair costs for damage caused deliberately or through negligence by you or anyone attending with you.

5. Comfort, consent and safety

Your comfort and consent come first. You may decline a pose, change direction or stop at any time. We will use reasonable care and skill, explain what we are doing and adapt the session where reasonably possible. You must tell Justyna if you feel uncomfortable or unwell, and follow reasonable safety instructions. No photograph or pose is worth continuing when you do not wish to do so.

6. Photographic style and creative decisions

You are booking Cherry & Bow after considering its portfolio and style. We welcome preferences discussed in advance, but each session is individual and an exact recreation of another photograph cannot be promised. Justyna retains professional discretion over lighting, posing, composition, image selection, colour treatment and ordinary retouching, exercised with reasonable care and consistently with the service agreed.

Unless agreed in writing, unedited files, RAW files, test photographs, duplicates and images that do not meet the professional standard are not supplied.

7. Galleries, image selection and delivery

Where we provide a private online gallery, access details are for you and people you authorise. Keep passwords and gallery links secure and tell us promptly if you think they have been disclosed. Watermarked previews are for viewing and selection only. They must not be published, altered, captured to bypass a watermark or treated as final purchased files.

Your package includes only the photographs and products stated in your confirmation. Additional images are optional and charged at the price shown before purchase. Unless your confirmation says otherwise, gallery download access is normally available for 30 days and each included or purchased image may be downloaded up to three times. Download and securely back up your files before access expires; gallery access is not a permanent archive. Please report missing, corrupt or incorrect files promptly. Delivery dates are estimates unless a fixed deadline is agreed in writing.

8. Prints and made-to-order products

Prints, albums and other made-to-order items are produced to the specification you approve. Screen brightness and colour settings vary, so a screen image may not exactly match a printed product. Please inspect items promptly and tell us if anything is damaged, faulty or not as agreed. Your statutory rights are not affected.

9. Copyright and your personal licence

Unless a signed written agreement says otherwise, copyright in photographs created by Cherry & Bow remains with Cherry & Bow or the photographer. Buying photographs does not transfer copyright. Once final digital photographs have been paid for and delivered, you receive a perpetual, non-exclusive licence to download, store, print and share them for personal and domestic use. You may share them on personal social-media accounts, but may not sell them, present them as another person’s work or use them to promote a business without written permission.

Commercial use, resale, publication by a business, licensing to others or removal of a copyright notice requires prior written permission.

10. Privacy and use of your photographs

A booking does not give Cherry & Bow permission to publish private boudoir photographs. Any use in a portfolio, on the website, social media, advertising, competitions, exhibitions or printed samples requires separate, express written permission. You may refuse or withdraw permission without affecting your session or its price. Private photographs are handled as described in the Privacy Statement and Image Disclaimer.

11. Changes and cancellations

If you need to cancel or change a date, contact us as soon as possible. Notice periods, booking fees, refunds, illness and emergencies are explained in our Cancellation Policy, which forms part of these terms. If we need to make a significant change, we will explain it and offer a reasonable alternative. If we cannot provide the agreed service, you may choose another date or a refund for services or products not supplied.

12. Events outside reasonable control

Neither party is responsible for delay or failure caused by events that could not reasonably have been prevented, including serious illness, bereavement, dangerous weather, travel disruption, utility failure, government restrictions or venue closure. We will communicate promptly and try to rearrange the affected service. Any charge or refund will reflect services supplied, costs that cannot reasonably be recovered and each party’s legal rights.

13. Problems and liability

We provide services with reasonable care and skill. If you believe something is wrong, give us a reasonable opportunity to investigate and, where appropriate, correct or repeat the affected part. We are responsible for foreseeable loss resulting from breach of contract or failure to use reasonable care and skill. Nothing in these terms excludes liability where that would be unlawful, including liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud or your statutory consumer rights.

14. Complaints

Please raise concerns with Justyna by emailing hello@cherryandbow.co.uk. Include your booking reference, what happened and the outcome you are seeking. We aim to acknowledge your complaint and provide a substantive response within 14 days.

15. General terms and governing law

If a court finds any part of these terms unenforceable, the remaining terms continue to apply. A delay in exercising a right does not waive it. These terms are governed by Scots law. Scottish courts have jurisdiction, while consumers elsewhere in the United Kingdom retain any mandatory right to bring a claim in the courts available to them. Nothing here limits rights under the Consumer Rights Act 2015 or other applicable consumer law.
