If a image is not returned within four weeks of the date for return then Joby Catto Photography may in its sole discretion presume it to be lost.

(b) The Client shall be liable to pay compensation to Joby Catto Photography in respect of each image lost or damaged. Payment of compensation does not give rise to any rights in any image. Compensation levels for the images are available from Joby Catto Photography upon request.
