Thanks,

Policies for payment of photographic services:

Photography of Palm Beach photo studio has a new policy concerning checks for payment.

We want you to enjoy your wedding photos that we take in Ft. Lauderdale and West Palm Beach and Boca Raton. We do a great deal of work to make the pictures and digital images look the best. But due to all of the fraud associated with the photography business and with photographers, we do ask the following from our customers.

We only accept checks drawn on a US bank in US funds or US Dollars.

If you want to get your pictures in a timely manner, then we suggest that you pay us in a money order or cashiers check. Local checks take up to three
(3) weeks to clear and your pictures and images will not be released until the local check clears.

Out of state checks will or may not clear for up to four or five weeks. Your out of state check must clear before we will release your pictures. International checks? forget it!

I suggest that you pay us in funds that are not subject to collection, such as a money order or cashiers check. I say that cash always works. We am happy and can always give you a receipt for cash payments.

Refunds are only given after 60 business days for overages not due to our mistakes.
60 days after the event is under cancellation or check was deposited
Wedding pictures and family portraits and events will be held until the checks clear for payment.

Digital images and pictures of your wedding or family event are important to you and we want you to get them in a timely manner.

Please do not waste our time by writing us and asking us to deposit funds from out of the country and then asking for a refund in the method of a money
transfer like Western Union. It will not happen…!!!
We do not participate in money transfer schemes with fraudulent checks.

Refunds Policy:

I will gladly give a refund if I Am unable to deliver your pictures for whatever reason
(i.e. camera or equipment failure, theft, fire or disaster)
Unable to show up at your wedding or event
(car breakdown, accident or sickness)

I generally hold all monies paid to Photography of Palm Beach and apply them as a credit for future services. I will be happy to hold all overpayments and apply the money for extra prints or photoediting and retouching of portraits.

Under NO CIRUMSTANCES will I issue a refund before an event is scheduled and all monies must clear the appropriate banking procedures first.

I will verify that your event is scheduled with the venue, like the hotel or county club, to insure that your photography request for me is legitimate and is not a check scam or fraud.

In other words, if you tell me you are getting married at the Breakers Hotel - I will call them and ask about your wedding. I know most of the Hotels and Country Clubs in the area, after all I work here all the time.

I will also be happy to refund any overages or overpayments 60 business days after an event is finished, providing that the funds have cleared from the appropriate source.

If you are thinking of sending me a fake check or money order and you want me to wire you a cash refund - well forget it and move on - DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME...!!!
