Identity
In Oculis is a self-employed company registered at the Dutch Chamber of Commerce under number 80335578. VAT is not applicable to it in compliance with the Dutch small-business scheme (KOR).
I do portrait/group photography, and classical recording. Do not confuse me for a live sound reinforcing engineer, or pop music producer !
When hiring me for a project you accept the following guidelines without reserve.
Rights & credits
All content I create (photos, videos, recordings) belong to me, and you pay for the right to use it. Therefore I can freely share my work in my portfolios and socials to advertise my services – unless explicitly agreed prior to the project and by writing, in special cases such as boudoir photos etc. Your photos will never be used in commercial advertisement or sold to a third party without your explicit, written permission. Photos will always bear a discreet watermark, and videos will always mention me as sound engineer/videographer.
I reserve the right to refuse service to anyone, for any reason, at any time including cancellation (see below).
In case you share any of my work, always credit me for it using my company’s name or my full name. I will appreciate it if you tag me on social medias. When sharing photos I made for you, PLEASE do not alter them with filters, as they would no longer reflect my vision nor the hard work I put in it. If a photo does not meet your expectations, ask me to change it for you instead. Respect the artist’s work !
Quotations & Deadlines
On request, I can provide you with an estimation of the costs for a project. Quotations are not contracts, meaning the final invoice may be different. Any work added on top of what was agreed will be charged additionally. Quotations are valid for a month after they have been sent.
Any deadline for delivering work must have been discussed and agreed upon beforehand. I will disregard any complaint if you have not communicated these to me in advance. Make sure to avoid unpleasant surprises. Without any mention of a deadline, the editing of your recording/photoshoot will be queued with other projects (if relevant).
Payments & Cancellations
You are required by Dutch law to pay invoices within 30 days after you received them. If there is an issue with the work I deliver, or the payment, contact me and I will gladly discuss a solution with you.
Cancellations on the day of a recording or a photoshoot may lead to charges, including travel costs. Full refund for a work that has already been done is not possible.
If I must cancel my participation to a project due to force majeure, I will do my best to find a replacement so that your project can move on.
Damages
In case you are responsible for equipment damage during a project, you will be held accountable for any repair/replacement costs. Please do not help me pack or unpack my gear, do not move microphones or cameras for me. I understand that you would like to help and I appreciate your kindness, but it is best to not touch anything !
Confidentiality
Your personal data will only be used for transaction and communication purposes and will not be shared with third parties. Your email will only be used to keep you informed about your project and send you an invoice, there will be no spamming with newsletters or else, during or after your order.
