Ordering Photographic Services

The client can place an order using the registration form on psifotografka.cz, email, phone number, or on social networks. The photographer confirms the acceptance of the client's order and confirms the date, time, and place of the photo shoot.
This confirmation constitutes the conclusion of the contract between the photographer and the client.
The photographer requires a prepayment of a deposit in a specified amount for the order to be valid.
The deposit serves as a guarantee of the client's commitment to the ordered services and secures the reservation of the photographer for the specified date and time.
The client is required to provide confirmation of the deposit payment to the photographer.
The payment should be made according to the photographer's instructions and the confirmation should include information about the amount, date, and method of payment.
The client has the option to request a change of date, time, or place of the photo shoot no later than 48 hours in advance.
