This Booking & Cancellation Policy
applies to services provided by
Visionary Moments UK,
a specialist photography, videography
and content creation brand of
Visionary Media UK.
We understand that plans can change.
Our aim is to provide clear booking
arrangements while remaining as
flexible and understanding as
reasonably possible.
This policy should be read alongside
our
Terms & Conditions and your
individual booking confirmation.
Nothing in this policy excludes
or restricts your statutory
consumer rights.

Date change, subject to availability
All bookings are subject to availability
and must be confirmed by Visionary
Moments UK.
Customers may enquire through our
website, email, telephone, WhatsApp
or social-media channels.
Submitting an enquiry does not
automatically reserve a date.
A booking is officially confirmed
once:
- The customer has accepted the agreed quotation or package.
- The required 25% booking deposit has been received.
- Visionary Moments UK has issued written booking confirmation.
Until these steps have been completed,
the requested date remains subject
to availability.
A booking deposit of
25% of the agreed package price
is required to secure your booking.
This deposit is credited towards
the total cost of your selected
package and is not an additional fee.
Once a booking is confirmed, we reserve
the agreed date and may decline
alternative enquiries for the same
coverage period.
Our Deposit Policy
The booking deposit is normally
non-refundable where a customer
chooses to cancel. However, any
amount retained will be assessed
fairly and proportionately, taking
account of work undertaken,
reasonable losses, any costs
avoided and applicable
consumer rights.
We recognise that unexpected
circumstances can arise and will
consider exceptional situations,
including hospitalisation or serious
medical emergencies, individually.
Wherever reasonably possible,
we would prefer to help you
reschedule rather than lose
your booking altogether.
03
Remaining Balance & Payments
The remaining
75% of the agreed package price
is due no later than
7 calendar days before
your scheduled event or session.
We currently accept:
- Bank transfer.
- Stripe payments.
- In-person card payments, where arranged.
For bookings made fewer than
7 days before the event or session,
full payment may be required
when the booking is confirmed.
If payment is overdue, we will
contact the customer and provide
a reasonable opportunity to
resolve the outstanding balance.
Any decision to suspend or cancel
a booking because of non-payment
will be made reasonably and
in accordance with applicable law.
04
Customer Cancellations
If you need to cancel your booking,
please notify us in writing as
soon as reasonably possible.
Cancellation requests should be
emailed to:
hello@visionarymoments.co.uk
.
Our 25% booking deposit is normally
retained following a customer
cancellation, subject to applicable
statutory rights and the requirement
that cancellation charges are fair
and proportionate.
We will consider the circumstances
of each cancellation, including:
- The amount of notice provided.
- Work already completed.
- Reasonable costs already incurred.
- Whether the reserved date can reasonably be rebooked.
- Any expenses we are able to avoid or recover.
- Any applicable statutory cancellation rights.
We will not automatically retain
the entire package price simply
because a customer cancels.
Where a refund is due, we will
explain the calculation and arrange
repayment using an appropriate method.
05
Exceptional Circumstances
We understand that some cancellations
happen for reasons entirely outside
a customer's control.
Examples may include:
- Hospitalisation.
- Serious illness or medical emergencies.
- Bereavement.
- Other significant unforeseen circumstances.
Where appropriate, we may request
reasonable supporting information
to help us assess the circumstances.
We will avoid requesting unnecessary
sensitive medical details.
We will consider whether a free
reschedule, partial refund, full
refund or another reasonable
arrangement is appropriate.
Any discretionary goodwill arrangement
is separate from, and does not reduce,
the customer's statutory rights.
06
Rescheduling Your Booking
We appreciate that plans sometimes
need to change and are happy to
accommodate date changes wherever
reasonably possible.
Each confirmed booking includes
one free date change,
subject to availability.
Customers should ideally provide
at least 7 calendar days'
notice when requesting
a new date.
The following conditions apply:
- The new date must be available.
- The original package and agreed coverage remain unchanged unless otherwise agreed.
- Any unavoidable additional expenses will be explained before being agreed.
- Further date changes may be considered individually.
Requests made with fewer than
7 days' notice will still be
considered, particularly where
exceptional circumstances apply.
Where a requested alternative
date is unavailable, we will
discuss other suitable options.
07
Late Arrivals & Missed Sessions
We ask customers to arrive at
the agreed location and time
to ensure they receive the
full benefit of their session.
Where possible, we allow up to
15 minutes of flexibility
for late arrivals.
However, this flexibility depends
on our availability and any
subsequent bookings.
If a customer arrives late,
the session may still need to
finish at its originally
scheduled time.
If you expect to be delayed,
please contact us as soon
as reasonably possible.
Where a customer does not attend
and has not contacted us, we
will assess any refund or
cancellation entitlement fairly
in accordance with the booking
agreement and applicable law.
08
Additional Coverage & Overtime
Where an event or session runs
longer than originally planned,
customers may request additional
photography or filming time.
Additional coverage is subject
to team availability and must
be agreed before it begins.
Overtime will be charged at
an agreed hourly rate, which
will be communicated to the
customer in advance.
We are not obliged to extend
coverage beyond the original
booking where doing so would
conflict with other commitments
or operational requirements.
09
Travel & Additional Expenses
Standard travel within
Monmouthshire
is included in our advertised
package prices.
Bookings outside Monmouthshire
are welcome. Any additional
travel costs will be quoted
individually before the
booking is confirmed.
Where applicable, additional
expenses such as parking,
accommodation or venue access
charges will be discussed
and agreed in advance.
We will not introduce undisclosed
travel charges after a booking
has been confirmed.
10
Weather & Outdoor Sessions
Outdoor photography and
videography may be affected
by weather conditions.
Where conditions make a session
unsuitable or unsafe, we will
offer a
free reschedule,
subject to availability.
This weather-related reschedule
will not use up the customer's
standard complimentary date change.
We will communicate with the
customer as early as reasonably
possible to discuss alternative
arrangements.
Drone coverage is additionally
subject to applicable aviation
regulations, permissions and
safe operating conditions.
Where a suitable alternative
cannot be agreed, any applicable
refund or other remedy will be
considered in accordance with
the booking agreement and law.
11
Cancellation by Visionary Moments UK
In the unlikely event that
Visionary Moments UK must cancel
a confirmed booking, we will
notify the customer as soon
as reasonably possible.
This may occur due to illness,
an emergency or other circumstances
that prevent us from providing
the agreed service.
Where we cannot fulfil the booking,
we will offer the customer a choice of:
- A suitable alternative date, subject to availability.
- A full refund of payments received for the cancelled service.
The customer is not required
to accept an alternative date.
Nothing in this section limits
any additional remedy to which
a customer may be entitled
under applicable law.
12
Delivery of Your Content
We aim to deliver completed
photography and videography
content within
7 calendar days
following the event or session.
Content will ordinarily be
delivered through an online
client gallery, downloadable
link or another agreed
digital method.
If an unexpected delay occurs,
we will contact the customer
and provide an updated
delivery estimate.
Customers are responsible
for downloading and securely
backing up their delivered
files.
File Retention
Our standard retention
period for completed
content and raw files
is 30 days after delivery.
Please ensure your
memories are downloaded
and backed up promptly.
Further information is
available in our
Privacy Policy
.
13
Your Statutory Cancellation Rights
Depending on the nature of
your booking and how the
contract was entered into,
statutory cancellation rights
may apply.
Certain distance and off-premises
contracts may provide consumers
with a 14-day cancellation period
under the Consumer Contracts
Regulations 2013.
However, statutory exceptions
may apply, including to certain
services related to leisure
activities where the contract
provides for a specific date
or period of performance.
Whether an exception applies
depends on the particular
booking and its circumstances.
We will not assume that every
booking is automatically
exempt.
Where a statutory cancellation
right applies, we will provide
the relevant information and
honour that right.
If a customer expressly requests
that services begin during an
applicable cancellation period,
any payment for work carried
out before cancellation will
be handled in accordance
with the relevant legal
requirements.
Nothing in this policy overrides
the Consumer Rights Act 2015
or other mandatory consumer
protections.
Where a refund is agreed or
legally required, we will
confirm the amount and
applicable arrangements
in writing.
Refunds will be processed
without undue delay and
within any timescale
required by law.
Where appropriate, refunds
will be returned using
the original payment method,
unless another lawful
arrangement is agreed.
15
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Booking
& Cancellation Policy
periodically to reflect
changes to our services,
operations or legal
requirements.
Existing bookings will
ordinarily remain subject
to the policy provided
or made available when
they were confirmed,
unless a subsequent
variation is agreed
or required by law.
If you need to discuss
a booking, request a
date change or ask
about a cancellation,
please contact us.
