1. About Allen Warren Photography
Allen Warren Photography LLC is a photography business located in Jackson, Michigan.
The website provides information about photography services, client experiences, products, artwork, pricing, availability, and ways to contact or inquire with the business.
2. Purpose of the Website
This website is provided for general informational and business purposes.
Visitors may use the website to:
- Learn about photography services
- View portfolio images
- Review general pricing and investment information
- Request a consultation
- Submit an inquiry
- Access contact information
- Follow links to booking, gallery, payment, or client-management services
Information presented on the website does not constitute a binding photography agreement, guarantee of availability, or reservation of a date.
3. Inquiries and Availability
Submitting an inquiry, consultation request, contact form, questionnaire, email, or text message does not create a booking or reserve a session or event date.
Photography services and dates remain subject to availability.
Allen Warren Photography may accept or decline an inquiry based on availability, service area, scheduling, project requirements, safety concerns, business fit, or other reasonable considerations.
4. Bookings and Client Agreements
A photography service is considered booked only after all required booking steps have been completed.
These steps may include:
- Acceptance of a proposal
- Signing the applicable photography agreement
- Payment of the required session fee, retainer, or other initial payment
- Completion of any other specifically stated booking requirement
Photography services are governed by the separate contract, proposal, invoice, questionnaire, and policies provided for that service.
If there is a conflict between these website Terms and a signed client agreement, the signed client agreement will control matters concerning the booked photography service.
5. Pricing and Service Information
We make reasonable efforts to keep pricing, service descriptions, availability, and product information accurate.
However:

6. Payments, Cancellations, Refunds, and Rescheduling
Payment schedules, session fees, retainers, cancellations, refunds, credits, transfers, and rescheduling terms vary by photography service.
The applicable terms will be stated in one or more of the following:
- Photography agreement
- Proposal
- Invoice
- Payment page
- Refund or cancellation policy
- Written communication from Allen Warren Photography
Unless otherwise stated in writing, submitting an inquiry alone does not create a payment obligation.
Custom artwork, albums, prints, digital-image orders, and other personalized products may be subject to special ordering, cancellation, return, or refund restrictions because they are prepared specifically for the client.

Website information is not legal, financial, medical, tax, or other professional advice.

Nothing in these Terms is intended to exclude or limit responsibility that cannot legally be excluded or limited.
Liability associated with a booked photography service will be governed by the applicable signed photography agreement and applicable law.
16. Governing Law
These website Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Michigan, without regard to conflict-of-law principles, except where another law is required to apply.
Any dispute concerning a booked photography service may also be subject to the dispute, venue, or governing-law provisions in the applicable signed client agreement.
17. Severability
If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be limited or removed only to the extent necessary.
The remaining provisions will continue in effect.
18. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms when our website, services, business practices, technology, or legal obligations change.
Updated Terms will be posted on this page with a revised effective date.
