  3. For purposes of these terms “Objective Shooting Criteria” means camera position, product position, number of items per shot, shot distance, product rotation and camera height.

Payment


  1. Ordering 50 Photos Or Less Also Referred To As A Standard Order
  1. Standard Orders: Payment is due in full at the time the Order is placed and must be made through the POW website.
  2. Non-Standard Orders (Orders greater than 50 images): POW will send an estimate of costs and contract for execution to Customer which must be approved prior to the Order being placed. See How to Place A Large Order With POW for more helpful information and guidelines.

    Over Payment For Larger Discounts
  3. Pre-payment constitutes a retainer for services.  You may order more now to get a larger discount and send products later. See refund details below in section C. Refund Policy.

    Order Is Too Small
  4. If POW received more products to photograph than the number of images ordered, POW may, at its option, elect to:
  1. Photograph all provided products, contact Client and inform it of the discrepancy and request additional payment, or
  2. Place the order “On Hold” until such time as Client instructs POW which products should be shot and which should not be shot so that the total images do not exceed the number ordered.
  3. If POW elects to shoot all products, Client will be informed of such decision and POW will provide all images with a watermark until the balance due for the additional images has been paid.

  1.  Refund Policy
  1. For Standard Orders: Client may request a refund on unused images within 90 days of initial payment. 
  2. Non-Standard Orders (Orders greater than 50 images): Client may request a refund on unused images within 180 days of initial payment.
     
  3. All refunds are issued in the original form of payment and are subject to the processing times and/or fees of the applicable third party financial institution.
  4. After 90 days of initial order payment, balances cannot be refunded, but POW will retain all amounts previously paid as a credit to be applied towards any future orders by Client.
  5. Discounts are given based on the volume of Images that is ordered.  In the event of a partial refund on a Standard Order, then the per-photo price will be updated to reflect the standard pricing for the number of Images actually retained by Client.  
  1. For example, if an order is placed for 50 photos at the bulk discounted rate of $44.99 per photo and there is a refund issued for 24 photos, the new price would be 49.99 per photo and the refund would reflect this new volume pricing, not the original volume.
  1. Current pricing can be found on the Pricing Page.
  2. All refunds are final and will only be provided at the end of the order, thus closing the order.
  3. Unused credits on orders initially placed longer than 2 years ago may not be redeemed or refunded, at its discretion.

Image Approval / Disapproval Policy


  1. Approval/Disapproval
  1. Client will be given an opportunity to approve or disapprove Images at the conclusion of the photoshoot and only after all Images are posted for Client download by responding to a POW “Approval Email.  
  2. Failure to respond to the Approval Email for any reason within 30 days of sending will result in the Images being deemed automatically approved and the order closed.
  3. Once an image is approved by the Client (including a deemed approval for failure to respond) no future refunds, reshoots, retouching of other modifications will be permitted.

  1. Once items have left POW’s possession through return shipment or customer pickup, regardless of approval status, the order(s) associated with those products are automatically closed. No future reshoots, retouching, or other modifications will be permitted for the associated order(s). Once products leave POW, any reshoots or photoshop work will be billable at POW’s discretion.
  2. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in these Terms of Service, Client’s use, display or other dissemination of any Image shall constitute Client's Approval and satisfaction of the Image(s) at which time the Client shall be entitled to no further remedy for dissatisfaction with the provided Image(s).
  3. In the event the Client disapproves of an image:
  1. Disapproval must be expressly made to POW in writing specifying the objective reasons for disapproval.  It is advised to use visual mark-ups as described in the following article.  Verbal or otherwise implied disapproval will not be accepted.

    Shoot Direction Policy Was Followed
  2. If (i) Client has complied with the shot direction detailed in Section 5 of these Terms of Service; and (ii) POW has failed to substantially match the Objective Shooting Criteria pursuant to the instruction given by Client and Client provided Materials (which include, but are not limited to “comps,” drawings, illustrations, tear sheets, cell phone images, and reference urls), then:
    POW will reshoot or retouch (at its option) the disapproved images up to two times at no additional cost to Client.
    Two complementary reshoots or retouches shall be Client’s sole and exclusive remedy for Image disapproval.

    Shoot Direction Policy Was Not Followed
  3. If Client has not complied with the POW General Direction Shooting Policy or has otherwise left image composition or lighting up to the discretion of POW, then Client will not be entitled to a refund or reshoot.


Shooting Direction Policy


  1. Shooting Direction
  1. Our policy regarding Shooting direction can be summed by like this:
  1. If you show us how to shoot  your product and we don't do it that way, then we'll redo it at no additional cost to you
  2. If you don't tell us how to photograph your product,waive the right to direction or change your mind from the original direction then reshoots based on positioning are not complementary.
  3. 2 rounds of Level 1 retouching revisions on any order are free.

Simply, if you don’t tell us how to photograph it, then we won’t know how to photograph it.

Best practices on how to provide clear direction can be found in the  
General Shooting Direction Guide.

  1. Direction of how the purchased Images are to be photographed must be expressly specified in writing. Written directions may be provided in a separate email following the prompts contained in the confirmation email after purchasing the Services.
  2. Since photography is visual, written shooting direction is often not completely clear.  Therefore, it is advised that match images also be taken for product position, angle & lighting be provided and added to the spreadsheet provided in the General Shooting Direction Guide.
  3. While POW will consider verbal direction it is not sufficient shooting direction without additional written instruction and sample imagery.  
  4. You may waive the right to provide shooting direction in writing and allow the POW photographers to  decide how to photograph the items in their sole discretion.  If you elect to waive the right to provide shooting direction, then complementary redos or reshoots will not be provided.
  5. If you are not waiving the right to provide shooting direction, then you are required to submit Materials sufficient to provide POW with clear direction and instruction on how images should be shot. Such Materials include, but are not limited to “comps,” drawings, illustrations, tear sheets, cell phone images, and reference urls.
  6. If sufficient shooting direction is not provided, then an order will be placed on hold, as more fully detailed in the section “Turn-Around Times & Delays”.
  7. If a lighting match image is not provided by you, then POW will photograph the Images using default Even Lighting as outlined in the Providing Direction For Lighting Guide.
  8.  Policies regarding disapproval because of lighting are covered in Section 4. “Image Approval/Disapproval Policy”. You can also find helpful tips in our After You Order link.
  1.  Elements Of Chance & The Spirit Of The Match Image
  1. Elements of chance are items where exact direction cannot be followed because they are unpredictable and can never be reproduced the same way.  

    For example: The customer provides a match image of a blue powder spread out on a surface in a certain manner.  We will try to match the general look of the powder when we shoot it on our set, however matching the powder grain for grain would be impossible.  This is considered an “element of chance” because powder is unpredictable and the exact position can never be matched exactly.
  2. Elements of chance do not qualify for reshoots if POW has made a good faith effort to reproduce the general spirit of the match image.
  3. Elements of chance apply to but are not limited to the following situations:
  1. Hand photos
  2. Cosmetic smears
  3. Large complex groups
  4. Oils and spills

Product Quality and Resulting Image


  1. Product Quality
  1. To ensure POW is able to produce the highest possible quality image, Client agrees that all products provided for shooting will be in substantially similar condition as those appearing in the Client-provided Materials. This includes, but is not limited to color, size, label position and content, packaging, etc.
  2. POW is not responsible for any damage or loss to products provided by Client to POW for photographing unless such damage or loss is due to POW’s gross negligence or intentional misconduct while the product(s) is in actual physical possession of POW.
  3. Client agrees that POW will photograph the item in the condition in which it arrives at the POW studio. In the event the product arrives at the POW studio in a condition which does not materially match that which is evidenced in the Client provided Materials, POW will use reasonable efforts to contact Client and request a new sample product more closely matching that appearing in the Materials. Any Customer disapproval will be subject to the POW Refund, Revision, Image Approval/Disapproval Policy.
  4. In the event a product provided to POW contains minor flaws (i.e. minor discoloration, dings, dents, scuffs, etc.) POW may, at its option, retouch the images at no additional cost to the Client, however it is under no obligation to do so.  
  5. Props are defined as items other than the product to enhance the photo.  With the exception of props that are listed on the Do You Photograph With Props page. 
  6. Client shall provide all props necessary for POW to deliver the Services. Clear direction is required as described in the “POW General Direction Shooting Policy”.

 

Pre-Approval Images & Art Direction


  1. Prohibited Services
  1. On-set Art Direction is prohibited.
    Art Direction is defined as the Client or representative, either on set or virtually, approving or disapproving each photograph as it is photographed and giving live real-time direction of the shoot and any Client interaction, which will otherwise hinder POW’s ability to effectively perform the Services.
  2. POW will not photograph different versions and let the Client pick which ones they want.  The number of Images and shooting direction must be specific at the time of ordering.
  1. Pre-Approval Images
  1. Pre-Approval Images are Images that are taken of the product following the direction provided by the Client and provided in advance of photographing the rest of the order.
  2. Pre-Approval Images are not typically created because of the time it takes to create them and once created the set must be held in stasis while awaiting a response from the Client to approve of the image.  This prevents other orders from being photographed on that set while waiting and lowering the productivity and is prohibited.
  3. In the event that a Pre-Approval Image is provided, it supersedes the shooting direction provided by the Client  Subjective aspects of the Pre-Approval Image, including, but not limited to overall lighting quality and highlight position will determine how other similar products will be photographed.
  4. If Client requests a reshoot or re-retouching of an aspect of an image that was created using the Pre-Approval Image as a guide then the client will not qualify for free revisions of the photo or reshoots of the product and no refunds will be allowed on the order referencing the pre-approval photo..

Image Ownership And Usage & Copyright


  1. Copyright Licensing Agreement
  1. Copyright can be a rather confusing and touchy subject. Here’s how we handle it at POW: 
  1. We retain all ownership rights and copyright of all Images that we create of your product, as is common in the photography industry.
  2. Included in the purchase price of your Order is a comprehensive license (subject to section 13.iv of these Terms of Service) to your Images. Specifically, we grant you a worldwide, royalty free, perpetual license to use and display your Images, in an unlimited number of mediums, with unlimited alterations for any promotional and advertising usage you see fit.
  3. You agree that you may not re-license or sell ownership of the Images to anyone else without our prior written approval in our sole and absolute discretion.  This includes reselling the Images or placing them in stock for profit and it is a violation of the copyright agreement.  You may, however, allow other retailers such as Amazon or selling sites to use the Images to promote the sale of their products, subject to the licensing terms set forth in these Terms of Service. If you are a wholesaler, then you may allow your retailers to use the Images, subject to the same restrictions set forth in these Terms of Service.
  4. POW expressly retains all copyright and other intellectual property rights to all disapproved and refunded Images, and any use, display, or other dissemination of disapproved or refunded Images by Clientis strictly prohibited.
  1. Copyright Transfer
  1. In the event the above described license is insufficient for your purposes (for example, if you intend to sell the copyright) and you feel that you still need complete copyright ownership of your Images, then you may purchase the copyright from us for an additional $20.00 per Image. In the event you purchase the copyright from us, we retain a perpetual, royalty-free worldwide license to use, display or disseminate the Images. However, if you are concerned about us sharing the Images without your consent, we are more than happy to agree to not share them on our website or with anyone else without your approval.
  2. Copyright transfer agreements will be created by POW at the end of the order as they require a contact sheet of the Images being transferred.
  3. POW is not responsible for pursuing copyright violations of the Images of your products. You agree that, if you determine a third party is using, displaying or disseminating your images without your consent that you are responsible for enforcing your rights and pursuing action for any copyright violations.
  4. POW understands that your business is unique, however your products may not be. To that end, you understand that POW may photograph similar products for your competitors if they order Images from us. We will never reuse your Images for these purposes and will reshoot the products as instructed by those parties, regardless of whether the direction results in Images substantially similar to yours.
  5. You agree that POW may use all Images for its own promotional and marketing purposes including all social media posts unless you have expressly prohibited us from doing so in writing.  

Image Sizing & Resolution


  1. Image File Type Delivery
  1. Client selects the image delivery type on the Order page. For additional information on image types POW offers, please visit: File Types We Deliver
  2. POW shall not be responsible for resizing or reformatting Images to fit your specific uses, so it is important to select the appropriate image type when placing an order. Generally, Images are delivered in large format to enable you to use them for most standard purposes (for example, on a website, in a catalog, printed in a magazine, etc.)  
  3. Please note that POW does not deliver layered PSD files.  The tif format carries all the same properties of a PSD file but at a smaller file size.  POW uses advanced retouching techniques and those layers will not be delivered as they are flattened in the retouching process and are mostly unusable except during processing.

  1. POW also will not deliver raw files. Raw images are the first step of a multi-step creation process and remain the sole property of POW.  POW uses advanced retouching methods far beyond a single capture image, often blending multiple raw files with many layered photoshop elements to achieve the final image which will be delivered to you.  

Image Retouching


  1. Image Retouching
  1. Basic Retouching Included In Base Price:
  1. Remove background so it is white around the outside of the product.
  2. Removing dust and basic scratches on the products.

  4. Fixing a small dent in a box.
  1. Advanced Retouching (Not Included In The Base Price)

  5. Re-creating a box that has been crushed in shipment.
  6. Copying one element from one photo into another.  Like photographing one lid and copying into a different product without a lid.
  7. Creating or manufacturing parts of a product that does not exist.
  1. Advanced Retouching is billed at $80 per hour calculated in 15 minute increments.

Image Storage


  1. Image Storage

  2. POW makes no claim and accepts no responsibility regarding the quality, nature or reliability of the Zenfolio. You are responsible for viewing and abiding by the Zenfolio privacy statements and terms of use.
  3. Currently, Zenfolio maintains Images indefinitely free of charge.  However, if Zenfolio changes its terms or either POW or Zenfolio goes out of business, then the Images may not be available.  POW  will make Images available for at least 60 days after Image completion, after which the Images may be removed or deleted in POW’s discretion. .Client agrees that it is solely responsible for the storage and management of all Images after 60 days and agrees to hold POW harmless from all claims related thereto.

    Chicago, IL 60640
  2. Do not send us or drop off a product before an order is placed.  POW sends and receives many packages daily and if a shipment arrives without an order number on it then we have no way of tracking it in our inventory system.  POW is not responsible for lost products or delays due to a Client’s failure to comply with this policy.
  3. All costs associated with shipping products to POW are the sole responsibility of the Client. Client bears the risk of damage or loss until the products are delivered to POW’s address set forth above and accepted by POW.

Lost, Damaged Or Stolen Products
