Photo Tours: Terms and Conditions
General
You must be 18 years or older to join a tour unless accompanied by a guardian. Payment of the tour fee confirms that you have read, understood, and agree to these terms and conditions.
Bookings and Payment
Your place is not confirmed until the required deposit has been received. Bookings are subject to a non-refundable deposit, with the balance due in full one month ahead of the tour start date as confirmed at the time of booking.
Cancellation by You
Initial deposits are non-refundable, though in some circumstances may be transferred to a future tour - please enquire. Cancellations made well ahead of the tour date may be eligible for a partial refund if your place can be filled; cancellations closer to the tour date carry reduced or no refund. You are strongly encouraged to take out travel insurance to cover any amounts that cannot be refunded under this policy.
Force Majeure
I am not liable for delay, cancellation, or changes to a tour resulting from events beyond reasonable control, including but not limited to severe weather, natural disasters, government restrictions, transport disruption, or public health emergencies. Where such an event affects a tour, I reserve the right to modify the itinerary, postpone the tour, or take any other reasonable steps necessary for participant safety. In these circumstances, the following options apply, in order of preference: transfer to a rescheduled date at no extra cost; credit toward a future tour, valid for 24 months; or a refund less any non-recoverable costs already committed (such as accommodation or transport bookings).
Cancellation by Kevin Prince Photography
If a tour is cancelled due to personal circumstances or insufficient numbers, you will be offered a full refund or a transfer to a future date. If a tour is terminated partway through due to unforeseen personal circumstances, any refund will depend on how much of the tour has been completed.
Weather and Alternative Locations
New Zealand's weather is unpredictable, and while every effort will be made to visit all planned locations, the itinerary may be adjusted to make the most of conditions on the day. A tour will not be cancelled for ordinary rain forecasts, which can often produce excellent photographic conditions. A decision on any tour affected by a severe weather system will be made in the days beforehand wherever possible.
Insurance
You are responsible for arranging your own travel, medical, and equipment insurance. Comprehensive travel insurance is strongly recommended to cover cancellations, delays, or disruption caused by weather, natural disasters, or other unforeseen events.
Health and Safety
Tours are designed to be accessible to photographers of all fitness levels, with locations chosen specifically to avoid long treks or difficult terrain. You are responsible for informing me of any health conditions that may affect your participation, and for bringing and managing any personal medication required. Appropriate wet-weather gear, warm layers, and comfortable footwear should be brought to every session, as conditions can change during the day. You are responsible for your own safety throughout the tour; Kevin Prince Photography is not liable for accidents or damage to person, equipment, or the natural environment arising from your own actions.
Dietary Requirements
Where a tour includes meals, please advise any dietary requirements in advance.
Camera Preparation
To get the most from your tour, please arrive with a working understanding of your camera's manual mode and RAW capture settings, along with sufficient memory cards and spare batteries for a full day of shooting.
Appropriate Behaviour
By booking a tour, you agree to behave appropriately throughout. Behaviour that disrupts the tour or affects other participants will not be tolerated, and no refund will be given if a participant is asked to leave as a result.
Social Media
By joining a tour, you agree that you may be photographed or filmed for future promotional use across Kevin Prince Photography's website and social media channels.
Liability Waiver
You will be asked to acknowledge the inherent risks of outdoor photography and to release Kevin Prince Photography from liability for unforeseen circumstances, personal injury or illness, and damage to your equipment.
Privacy
Personal information collected for booking purposes is used only to manage your participation in the tour and will not be shared with any third party or used for any other purpose.
