- private clients (portfolio, portrait, maternity, couple, bachelorette, underwater, glamour sessions, etc.);
- professionals and businesses (corporate portraits, events, real estate, product photography, e-commerce, food, image libraries, etc.).
Specific conditions may be stated in the quote corresponding to each service. In the event of conflict, the specific conditions of the quote prevail over these T&Cs.
Article 3 — Quotes and Orders
Each service is subject to a personalized quote, prepared free of charge by the Photographer based on the client’s expressed needs.
The quote specifies the nature of the service, its price, the terms of performance and, where applicable, the scope of the rights assignment.
The order is considered firm and final upon receipt of the quote dated, signed and bearing the words « bon pour accord » (agreed), together with payment of any deposit requested.
The quote is valid for 30 days from its date of issue, unless otherwise stated.
Article 4 — Prices and Payment Terms
Service prices are stated on the quotes and expressed in euros, including all taxes. The applicable VAT is that in force on the invoicing date.
Deposit: Depending on the nature and scale of the service, a deposit may be requested upon booking. The amount of this deposit is specified on the quote. The balance is due upon delivery of the services, unless otherwise agreed.
Payment methods: Payments may be made by bank transfer, credit card or any other method specified on the invoice.
Late payment: In accordance with Article L.441-10 of the French Commercial Code, any late payment automatically incurs late penalties calculated at the statutory interest rate plus a surcharge, as well as a fixed recovery fee of €40 for professional clients.
Article 5 — Performance of the Service
The Photographer undertakes to perform the service with the utmost care, in accordance with professional standards and the instructions agreed with the client.
The Photographer retains artistic freedom in the choice of techniques, shooting angles, staging and image processing, while respecting the client’s expressed expectations.
The client undertakes to provide the Photographer with all information necessary for the smooth running of the service and to facilitate access to the shooting locations where applicable.
Article 6 — Image Selection and Delivery
Unless otherwise stated in the quote, the Photographer selects the best images from the session. The client may be invited to choose their favorite photos from a preview gallery before final retouching.
Delivered photographs undergo standard processing and retouching (color, contrast, cropping, atmosphere). Advanced « beauty » retouching (skin, silhouette, etc.) may be subject to a separately invoiced additional service.
Delivery time: Delivery time varies according to the nature and volume of the service. It is stated for guidance on the quote. Announced timeframes do not constitute a firm commitment, and reasonable delay cannot give rise to cancellation or compensation.
Images are delivered in high-definition digital format via a secure private download link.
Storage: The Photographer stores files for a maximum of 6 months after delivery, with no guarantee beyond that. It is the client’s responsibility to back up their files upon receipt.
Article 7 — Copyright and Usage Rights
In accordance with the French Intellectual Property Code (Articles L.111-1 et seq.), the Photographer remains the holder of copyright over all photographs produced. The sale of a print or delivery of digital files does not entail the assignment of exploitation rights.
7.1 — Private clients Photographs are delivered for strictly private and personal use. The client is authorized to reproduce the images for personal and family use (personal prints, sharing on personal social media on a non-commercial basis). Any commercial, advertising or professional use is excluded without a prior rights assignment subject to a separate written agreement.
7.2 — Professional and business clients The scope of the rights assignment (media, duration, territory, type of use) is precisely defined in the quote. Unless otherwise stated, the assignment is limited to the uses and media expressly provided for. Any use beyond the agreed scope requires an amendment and may be subject to additional invoicing.
7.3 — Photographer credit Unless expressly waived, the Photographer’s name (« aSeed » or « Frédéric Lefeuvre ») must be mentioned in any publication of the images, in accordance with the author’s moral rights (Article L.121-1 of the IP Code).
Article 8 — Image Rights and Use by the Photographer
The Photographer undertakes not to use the client’s photographs for promotional purposes (portfolio, website, social media, advertising, contests) without the client’s prior written consent.
A specific image-rights authorization may be offered separately to the client. This authorization is optional, freely given, and its refusal does not affect the performance or delivery of the service in any way.
The client guarantees to the Photographer that they have obtained authorization from all persons appearing in the images within the scope of an order (in particular for group sessions, events or corporate services).
Article 9 — Cancellation and Postponement
9.1 — Cancellation by the client In the event of cancellation by the client, any deposit paid remains acquired by the Photographer as compensation, without prejudice to any costs already incurred.
9.2 — Postponement The Photographer may grant a postponement of the session, subject to availability and reasonable notice. Postponement conditions are specified on a case-by-case basis.
9.3 — Cancellation by the Photographer In the event of force majeure or the Photographer’s inability to attend (illness, accident, weather conditions making an outdoor session impossible), the session will be postponed to a later date. No compensation may be claimed from the Photographer in this case, and the deposit will be carried over to the new date or refunded if no postponement is possible.
Article 10 — Right of Withdrawal
In accordance with Article L.221-28 of the French Consumer Code, the right of withdrawal cannot be exercised for services fully performed before the end of the withdrawal period, nor for goods made to the consumer’s specifications or clearly personalized — which is the case for bespoke photography services.
Consequently, once the session has taken place, no right of withdrawal applies.
Article 11 — Liability
The Photographer is bound by an obligation of means and not of result. The Photographer’s liability cannot be engaged in the event of force majeure or circumstances beyond their control.
In the event of a technical failure resulting in total or partial loss of images (hardware failure, theft, data loss), the Photographer’s liability is limited to a refund of the service or the rescheduling of a new session, to the exclusion of any other compensation.
Article 12 — Personal Data Protection
Personal data collected as part of the service is processed in accordance with the GDPR and the privacy policy available on the website. It is used solely for managing the business relationship and is never transferred to third parties. The client has the right to access, rectify and delete their data by writing to contact@aseed.fr.
Article 13 — Disputes and Governing Law
These T&Cs are governed by French law. These T&Cs have been translated into English for the convenience of the Photographer’s clients; in the event of any discrepancy or dispute, the French-language version shall prevail.
In the event of a dispute, the parties will endeavor to find an amicable solution. In accordance with Article L.612-1 of the French Consumer Code, private clients may use a consumer mediator free of charge to resolve the dispute amicably.
Failing amicable resolution, the dispute will be brought before the competent courts: for professional clients, the Commercial Court of Nice shall have sole jurisdiction.
