Terms of Use

1. Acceptance of These Terms

These Terms of Use ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the website, content, and services offered by E Drake Enterprise LLC ("E Drake Enterprise," "we," "us," or "our"). By browsing this website, submitting a booking request, or engaging us for a session, you agree to be bound by these Terms.

If you do not agree with any part of these Terms, please do not use this website or our services. If you are entering into these Terms on behalf of a company or organization, you represent that you have authority to bind that entity.

2. Who We Are and What We Do

E Drake Enterprise LLC is a media and business branding agency based in Tampa, Florida. We provide photography, cinematic film production, creative direction, brand strategy, headshots, editorial and lifestyle sessions, and related media services for individuals, businesses, and public-sector clients.

All services are subject to availability, scheduling, and a written or electronic confirmation from us. Nothing on this website constitutes a binding offer to perform services until we confirm your booking.

3. Bookings, Quotes, and Deposits

Submitting the booking form on this website is a request, not a confirmed reservation. A session is confirmed only when we accept the request and any required retainer or deposit is received.

Quotes are based on the scope, duration, location, and deliverables described at the time of booking. Changes to scope, additional locations, extended shoot time, or added deliverables may result in additional fees, which we will communicate before the work is performed.

A non-refundable retainer may be required to hold your date. The retainer is applied toward the total project cost.

4. Pricing and Payment

Pricing displayed on this website is provided for general information and may change. Final pricing is confirmed in your booking agreement or invoice.

Unless otherwise agreed in writing, the remaining balance is due on or before the session date. Deliverables may be withheld until payment is received in full. Returned payments, chargebacks, or declined transactions may result in cancellation of the session and additional administrative fees where permitted by law.

Applicable sales tax, travel costs, permits, studio rental, and third-party vendor fees are the responsibility of the client unless expressly included in your quote.

5. Rescheduling, Cancellations, and Refunds

We understand that schedules change. Please notify us as early as possible if you need to reschedule. Rescheduling requests made at least 48 hours before the session are accommodated once at no additional charge, subject to availability.

Cancellations made within 48 hours of the session, or failure to appear for a confirmed session, may forfeit the retainer. Cancellations by E Drake Enterprise will be rescheduled or refunded at our discretion.

Because creative work is custom, payments for completed sessions, delivered images, edited media, or brand strategy work are non-refundable except where required by law.

6. Client Responsibilities and Releases

You agree to arrive on time, prepared, and with any wardrobe, props, or materials agreed in advance. You are responsible for the conduct of your guests and for ensuring that all participants consent to being photographed or recorded.

Where a session includes minors, a parent or legal guardian must be present and must provide written consent. For commercial, advertising, or publication use of images featuring identifiable individuals, the client is responsible for obtaining any required model or property releases unless we agree in writing to arrange them.

You confirm that any materials, logos, artwork, or locations you provide do not infringe the rights of any third party.

7. Creative Direction and Revisions

We bring professional judgment and creative direction to every project. While we welcome your ideas and references, final artistic choices regarding framing, lighting, styling, posing, editing, and color grading remain with E Drake Enterprise.

The number of edits, retouches, and revision rounds included in your project is stated in your quote. Additional revision rounds or retouching beyond the included scope are billed at our standard hourly rate.

Raw, unedited files and outtakes are not delivered and remain the property of E Drake Enterprise unless expressly agreed in writing.

8. Deliverables, Delivery, and Storage

Delivery timelines are estimates and typically range from five to fourteen business days depending on the scope of the project. Rush delivery is available for an additional fee when our schedule allows.

Final deliverables are provided digitally through a private gallery or file transfer link. Please download and back up your files promptly. We maintain project archives for a limited period, after which files may be permanently deleted without notice, and we are not liable for loss of archived material.

9. Intellectual Property and Usage Rights

E Drake Enterprise LLC retains copyright and all other intellectual property rights in every photograph, film, and creative work we produce, as protected by United States copyright law.

Upon full payment, we grant the client a license to use the delivered images and media for the purposes described in the project agreement. Personal clients receive a personal, non-commercial usage license. Commercial and brand clients receive a license scoped to the agreed campaign, territory, and term.

Unless a buyout or exclusive rights transfer is purchased in writing, our work may not be resold, sublicensed, or used to train artificial intelligence models without our prior written consent. The E Drake Enterprise name, logo, and brand marks may not be used without written permission.

10. Portfolio and Promotional Use

We are proud of the work we create and may display select images, films, and case studies in our portfolio, on our website, and on our social media channels. If you prefer that your project remain private, please tell us in writing before or at the time of your session and we will honor that request.

11. Acceptable Use of This Website

You agree not to misuse this website. Prohibited activity includes attempting to gain unauthorized access to our systems, scraping or copying site content for commercial use, submitting false or fraudulent booking requests, transmitting malware, or interfering with the site's normal operation.

All website content, including text, layout, graphics, and code, is owned by or licensed to E Drake Enterprise LLC and is protected by applicable intellectual property laws.

12. Third-Party Services and Links

This website may link to third-party platforms such as social media networks, payment processors, scheduling tools, and file-sharing services. We do not control those services and are not responsible for their content, availability, or privacy practices. Your use of a third-party service is governed by that provider's own terms and policies.

13. Disclaimer of Warranties

This website and its content are provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the website will be uninterrupted, secure, or error-free.

14. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, E Drake Enterprise LLC shall not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including lost profits, lost business opportunities, or loss of data, arising out of or relating to your use of this website or our services.

Our total aggregate liability for any claim arising from a project shall not exceed the total amount paid by the client to E Drake Enterprise LLC for that project. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations, so portions of this section may not apply to you.

15. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless E Drake Enterprise LLC, its owners, employees, and contractors from any claims, damages, liabilities, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from your breach of these Terms, your misuse of the website, or materials, instructions, or locations you supplied that infringe or violate the rights of a third party.

16. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Florida, without regard to its conflict-of-law principles. Any dispute that cannot be resolved informally shall be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Hillsborough County, Florida, and both parties consent to their jurisdiction.

Before filing any formal action, both parties agree to attempt to resolve the dispute in good faith through direct written communication.

17. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time to reflect changes in our services, technology, or legal requirements. The revised version takes effect when it is posted on this page, and the "Last updated" date above will reflect the change. Your continued use of the website after an update constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
