Return & Refund Policy

Last updated: 13 June 2026

Because Armitt Aperture provides photography services rather than physical products, this Return & Refund Policy explains how cancellations, refunds, and service issues are handled.

1. No Returns on Services

As we do not sell physical goods, there are no returns in the traditional sense. All purchases relate to photography services, session fees, or digital image packages.

2. Deposits / Booking Fees

  • All deposits or booking fees are non‑refundable.

  • A booking is only secured once the deposit is paid.

  • Deposits may be transferable to a new date at our discretion, depending on availability.

3. Cancellations by the Client

If you need to cancel your session:

  • Deposits are non‑refundable

  • Any additional payments may be refundable depending on how close to the session the cancellation occurs (as outlined in your photography agreement)

If you wish to reschedule, we will do our best to accommodate a new date.

4. Cancellations by Armitt Aperture

If we must cancel due to illness, emergency, or circumstances beyond our control:

  • You will receive a full refund of any payments made

  • We may offer to reschedule where possible

We are not responsible for cancellations caused by events outside our control (weather, venue issues, travel delays, etc.).

5. Digital Images & Editing

Because digital images cannot be “returned”:

  • All delivered digital files are non‑refundable

  • Editing style is part of our artistic service and is not subject to refunds

  • Requests for re‑editing may incur an additional fee

Raw/unedited files are not provided unless agreed in writing.

6. Service Issues

If you believe there is an issue with the service provided:

  • Contact us within 7 days of receiving your images

  • We will review your concerns and work with you to resolve them

  • Refunds are only issued in rare cases where no usable images were delivered due to our fault

7. Late Arrivals & No‑Shows

If the client arrives late or does not attend the session:

  • The session time may be reduced

  • No refunds will be issued

  • A new session may require a new booking fee
