Steps to take for approving your album layout so that it can be sent off for binding.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR ALBUM LAYOUT APPROVAL

YAY! The album design is ready for approval and to be sent off for binding!
Please read all information below carefully and follow instructions to approve your layout.

Please print out this page and mail to KristinStudio with your payment (if one is due). Bride and Groom must both sign the printed approval. Your signatures indicate that you agree to all the terms below and have confirmed all of your album options (sent to you via email).

TOUCH-UPS / EDITS:
List any photoshop editing to do as per past conversations and agreed upon items. (This is simply a reminder for the photoshop stage of exporting and color correcting. All emails back and forth are saved, but it's a lot to go through, a quick summary here is greatly appreciated and will get your album out for binding much more efficiently). You only need to list the page spread number and which image it is (example: Page Spread 5: pic of us at altar, fix crocked aisle runner). Anything beyond simple skin touch-ups or quick fly away hair fixes (or similar items) are billed at $75.00 per hour. There is a one hour minimum, so it is best to put all your edits into one list. Please inquire if you are curious about a possible edit you would like to see done but are unsure if it can be done, or if it is part of the complimentary edits.

CONFIRM YOUR ALBUM MATERIAL SELECTIONS:
Your album selections (cover material, cover color, cover photo/names, mat colors, etc.) have been sent to you via email. Please print out that email and include it with your signed approval. However, if you do not send it back or do not reply to that email about the selections it will be assumed that the selections are correct and the album will be ordered that way. If you did NOT receive your email confirming your album selections please inform the Studio as soon as possible.

SCHEDULE FOR DELIVERY:
Once your album is approved it can take TWO to FOUR months for delivery. That is the standard, there are no rushes no matter what time of year it is! Four months is obviously the absolute max, but I do state it just in case. After your album is approved the Studio still has work to do before your album is ready for binding by the manufacturer. Depending on the time of year and number of albums approved at the same time this process post-approval stage can take a week to three weeks (this is included in the two to four month estimate above). Steps taken at this stage are color corrections, enhancements, prepping, paper work, and mailing off to the manufacturer. Your album is absolutely a top priority to KristinStudio, but please also be realistic about delivery times. Thank you.

YOU ARE AGREEING TO THESE TERMS:
OUR ALBUM LAYOUT IS APPROVED, THERE ARE NO CHANGES. ANY CHANGES DESIRED AFTER APPROVAL AND DELIVERY OF THE FINISHED PRODUCT ARE AT THE EXPENSE OF WE THE CLIENT (unless faulty by the manufacturer, however, I the Photographer inspect the albums before releasing to you the Client). IF WE THE CLIENT HAVE A BALANCE DUE IT WILL BE PAID WITH THIS APPROVAL SO THAT THE ORDER FOR BINDING CAN BE MADE WITH THE ALBUM SUPPLIER. WE THE CLIENT REALIZE THAT COLOR WILL NOT BE THE SAME AS OUR PROOFS, THEY WILL BE BRIGHTER, MORE VIVID, AND COLOR CORRECTED TO THE PHOTOGRAPHER'S PROFESSIONAL EYE AND STYLE. PLEASE ALSO REALIZE THAT COLOR ON YOUR MONITOR IS NOT HOW THE PHOTOS WILL LOOK AS YOUR MONITOR IS MOST LIKELY NOT PROPERLY CALIBRATED. WE THE CLIENT APPROVE THE LAYOUT AND ACCEPT THE ALBUM AS SHOWN AND HAVE 100% CONFIDENCE IN THE PHOTOGRAPHER'S COLOR CORRECTION SKILLS.


Thank you.
