Photographic pocket

Now more and more parents like to record their children's growth process through photos. With the liberalization of the comprehensive "two-child" policy, children's photography industry is also booming. Due to the great market potential, relatively low threshold and considerable profits, children's photography institutions have blossomed everywhere in recent years. Photographic agencies "get together" to launch various preferential packages for children's photo, and even some businesses play "free" gimmicks to attract customers, but this behavior has also caused some controversy.

Someone once received a "free shooting" invitation card from a merchant, and the other party repeatedly promised that the whole shooting would be free. Who knows that after shooting for more than an hour, the merchant finally paid more than 300 yuan in the form of "free shooting and printing". The so-called "free shooting" is only free first and then paid, which is just a promotional gimmick of the merchants.

In the face of the mixed children's photography market, we remind consumers to pay attention to:

First, when choosing a photography shop, don't blindly believe the advertisements of the merchants. On-the-spot investigation, it is best to choose a shop with complete procedures, large scale and certain popularity.

Second, after choosing a photography shop, you must carefully read the promised service content. When signing a contract, you should read every clause of the contract carefully. It is best to write down the number of dresses, photos, ownership of negatives, material and size of photo albums. Don't blindly listen to the verbal promises of the merchants, you can request to modify or supplement the specifications, models and prices listed in the format contract.

The third is to treat promotional activities rationally. Some photography agencies often attract customers in the name of "free photography" and "special package" under the banner of authoritative departments, but afterwards they ask consumers to pay other expenses, such as printing fees, production fees, photo frame materials and so on. Consumers should look at the "gimmicks" of business promotion rationally, do not covet cheap, and avoid falling into the promotion trap of illegal businesses.

Fourth, when choosing payment methods, we should pay attention to the difference between "down payment" and "down payment". Regarding the "down payment", the contract law stipulates that if one party breaches the contract, it shall be implemented in accordance with the agreement; If there is no agreement, the operator will double the "deposit" when it breaches the contract; When the consumer defaults, the "deposit" will not be refunded. As for the "deposit", there is no clear provision in the law at present, which can be regarded as "advance payment". When one party breaches the contract, both parties have agreed to implement it as agreed; If there is no agreement, the operator shall refund unconditionally when it breaches the contract; When consumers breach the contract, they can ask the operators for a refund.
