Terms and conditions

These terms apply when you use www.la-lente.com.au and when you book or buy from La Lente. By using the website you agree to them.

La Lente Photography is run by Paul D'Ambra (ABN 77 240 813 694), a photographer based in Epping, Sydney, NSW. In these terms, "La Lente", "I", "we" and "us" mean La Lente Photography.

Using this website

You're welcome to read, browse and share links to anything on this website. Please don't use it in a way that's unlawful, that could damage the site, or that interferes with anyone else using it. That includes copying content in bulk, scraping it, or trying to get into areas you're not meant to access.

Information and prices

I work hard to keep the information on this site accurate and up to date, including prices, packages and turnaround times. Things do change, so the price and details you're quoted when you book are the ones that apply. Stories and guides, such as travel tips or venue information, reflect my own experience at the time. Please check details like opening hours and prices before you rely on them.

Photographs and copyright

All photographs, text and other content on this website belong to La Lente Photography unless stated otherwise, and are protected by Australian copyright law. You can't copy, download, edit, reproduce or use them, including for commercial purposes or for AI training, without my written permission.

When you book a shoot:
• Ownership: I keep the copyright in the photographs.
• Private sessions (for example dog, family, event and car-owner shoots): you get a licence to use your photos for personal use. That means printing them, sharing them on your personal social media and keeping them for yourself. Personal use doesn't include selling the photos or using them to promote a business.
• Selling your car: car owners may also use their photos in online classified ads to sell that vehicle, for example on Carsales, Facebook Marketplace, Gumtree, AutoTrader or Trading Post.
• Business shoots: your package includes a licence to use the photos commercially, for example on your website, on social media, in advertising and in marketing material. The service page and your quote set out the details.
• Credit: when you share your photos online, a credit to La Lente is appreciated but not required.

How I use photos from your shoot

I may use a selection of photos from your shoot on my website, social media and other online profiles to show my work. If you'd prefer I didn't, just tell me, before or after the shoot, and I won't use them. Saying no won't affect your booking or your photos in any way. If something is already published and you'd like it taken down, email me and I'll remove it.

Delivery and keeping your photos

Turnaround times are on each service page. Please download your photos and keep your own copies once they're delivered. I may keep backups, but I can't guarantee I'll be able to supply copies later.

Bookings, cancellations and refunds

These are covered in Bookings, cancellations and refunds.

Reviews

The reviews on this website are from real clients. They're shown word for word, as written on Google, Facebook or the platform where they were posted, or as sent to me directly.

Links to other websites

This site links to other websites, such as Google, YouTube, social media and venues mentioned in stories. I'm not responsible for their content or how they handle your information.

Our responsibility to you

Nothing in these terms excludes, restricts or changes any right or remedy you have under the Australian Consumer Law or any other law that can't be excluded.

Apart from those rights, and to the extent the law allows:
• the website is provided "as is", and I can't promise it will always be available or error-free;
• I'm not liable for any indirect or consequential loss arising from your use of the website.

Where the law allows me to limit my liability for a service that isn't of a kind ordinarily acquired for personal, domestic or household use, my liability is limited to supplying the service again or paying the cost of having it supplied again.

Privacy

How I collect and handle your personal information is explained in the Privacy policy.

Changes to these terms

I may update these terms from time to time. The latest version is always on this page, with the date it was last updated. Any booking you've already made is covered by the terms in place when you booked.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of New South Wales, Australia.
