01

Overview

This Delivery Policy outlines the timelines, formats, and conditions under which Esha Clicks delivers photography, videography, and album products to clients. By booking our services, you agree to the delivery terms described on this page.

We take delivery seriously โ€” your memories deserve to reach you in the best quality and within the promised time. This page tells you exactly what to expect, when to expect it, and what you need to do on your end to ensure nothing goes wrong.

Delivery at a Glance

Raw / Unedited Photos
Delivered within 3โ€“5 working days of event date
Professionally Edited Photos
7โ€“21 working days from event date (varies by package and edit volume)
Edited Video Teaser (1โ€“4 min)
15โ€“30 working days from event date
Physical Album
3โ€“5 weeks after final photo selection approval from client

Working days = Monday to Saturday, excluding public holidays. Timelines may be longer during peak festive and wedding seasons.

02

Payment Prerequisite for Delivery

All deliverables will be released only after the full balance payment is received. This applies to:

  • Edited photographs and raw files
  • Video teasers and edited reels
  • Digital download links and cloud gallery access
  • Physical albums and printed products

As per our standard payment terms, the 80% balance is due on event day after shoot completion. Deliverables will be dispatched once this balance is cleared. Outstanding payments โ€” regardless of reason โ€” will result in the withholding of all deliverables until full payment is received.

Album orders: Physical album production begins only after the balance is paid and the client has approved the final photo selection. Production cannot start without both.

03

Photography Deliverables & Timeline

Edited Photographs

Edited photos are delivered digitally via a Google Drive or WeTransfer link, shared on WhatsApp and email.

Essential 40 edited photos 10โ€“16 working days
Premium โญ 80 edited photos 14โ€“21 working days
Ultimate 120 edited photos 18โ€“21 working days
  • All images undergo professional editing, colour correction, and enhancement
  • Delivered in high-resolution JPEG format โ€” suitable for printing and digital sharing
  • Organised into clearly labelled folders for easy navigation
  • Images are not watermarked in the final delivered set

Raw / Unedited Photos

All packages include access to raw (unedited) photos. These are delivered within 3โ€“5 working days of the event date, ahead of the edited set.

  • Delivered in JPEG format as originally captured (no edits applied)
  • May include multiple shots of the same moment, test shots, and varying exposures
  • File sizes are significantly larger โ€” please ensure you have adequate storage space
  • No editing or colour correction is applied to raw files

Note: Raw files are shared as-captured JPEGs, not in proprietary camera RAW format (CR2/NEF). If you specifically need camera RAW format files, please discuss this at the time of booking.

Rush / Express Editing

If you need edited photos urgently โ€” for a birthday post, family WhatsApp group, or social media โ€” rush editing is available at an additional charge, subject to workload availability. Please request this before or on the day of the event. Rush requests made after 48 hours may not be accommodated.

04

Videography Deliverables & Timeline

Edited Video Teaser

Video teasers are included in the Essential, Premium, and Ultimate packages. Delivery timelines are as follows:

PackageVideo DurationDelivery Timeline

Premium โญ 2โ€“4 minutes 20โ€“30 working days
Ultimate 2โ€“4 minutes (Cinematic) 20โ€“30 working days

Raw Video Footage

Raw, unedited video footage is not provided as part of any standard package. Raw video files contain hours of uncompressed footage, require professional editing software to view, and are not suitable for casual client use.

If you specifically need raw video footage, please discuss this at the time of booking. It may be available as a separate add-on at additional cost.

05

Delivery Methods

Digital Delivery โ€” Primary Method

All photo and video deliverables are primarily delivered digitally via secure cloud storage links:

  • Google Drive โ€” organised folders, accessible from any device
  • WeTransfer โ€” used for large file sets when Google Drive is not suitable
  • Links are shared via WhatsApp (primary) and email (backup)
  • Files are accessible and downloadable from any device with an internet connection
  • You may share the link with family and friends to let them download too โ€” this is your responsibility

Physical Album Delivery

Physical albums (included in Premium and Ultimate packages) are either:

  • Couriered โ€” dispatched via a trusted courier partner with tracking details shared on WhatsApp
  • Picked up โ€” available for collection at our Noida Extension location (by prior arrangement)

Album specifications: 12ร—36 inch panoramic format. Premium and Ultimate packages include 10 and 15 sheets respectively, featuring 60โ€“80 and 90โ€“120 photos.

Courier charges for album delivery outside Delhi NCR will be communicated separately. Delivery timelines for physical albums depend on the courier partner and destination.

Optional Physical Media

If you prefer your photos and videos on a physical device (USB drive, hard disk), this is available as an add-on at additional cost. Please request this at the time of booking. Physical media is dispatched or collected once digital delivery is completed.

06

Download Link Validity Period

โš ๏ธ Critical โ€” Please Read: All download and viewing links will remain active for 30 days from the date of delivery notification. After this period, links may be deactivated and files archived or deleted. Please download all content within this window.

After the 30-day validity period:

  • Links may be deactivated or expired
  • Files may be archived or permanently deleted from cloud storage
  • Esha Clicks bears no responsibility for data loss after this period
  • Re-upload or link reactivation requests may not be possible, or may attract additional charges

The 30-day clock starts from the delivery notification date โ€” not from when you first open the link. Please act promptly once you receive the delivery message.

Why We Have a Validity Period

We are a photography service, not a long-term cloud storage provider. Storing large photo and video files indefinitely is not feasible. The 30-day window gives you ample time to download, back up, and share your memories โ€” please use it.

07

Your Backup Responsibility

Once deliverables are provided, it is entirely your responsibility to download and safeguard your files. We strongly recommend:

  • Downloading all files immediately upon receiving the delivery link
  • Saving copies to at least two separate locations โ€” e.g., your phone, laptop, and Google Photos or iCloud
  • Verifying that all files have downloaded correctly and are viewable
  • Ensuring you have adequate storage space before initiating the download
  • Sharing the link with family members so they can create their own copies

Please don't wait. We've seen clients delay downloading and then find the link expired. Your photos are once-in-a-lifetime โ€” treat the download as urgently as you would treat the event itself.

Data loss after the 30-day validity period โ€” whether due to expired links, deleted files, or the client's own storage issues โ€” is not the responsibility of Esha Clicks.

08

Re-Delivery & Re-Upload Policy

Within the 30-Day Validity Period

If you experience genuine technical issues downloading files within the 30-day window โ€” such as a broken link, upload error, or missing files โ€” contact us immediately via WhatsApp. We will resolve the issue at no additional charge during this period.

After the 30-Day Validity Period

Re-upload or re-delivery requests made after the validity period:

  • May not be possible if files have already been archived or deleted
  • Will attract re-upload charges if files can be recovered
  • May require 7โ€“14 working days for processing
  • There is no guarantee that all original files can be recovered after archival

Lost or Damaged Files on Client's End

If files are lost, deleted, or damaged on the client's end after a successful delivery โ€” due to a device crash, accidental deletion, or storage failure โ€” Esha Clicks is not responsible for providing replacements or backups beyond the initial 30-day period. This is why maintaining at least two personal backups is strongly advised.

09

Quality & Format Standards

All deliverables from Esha Clicks meet professional standards:

DeliverableFormatQuality Standard
Edited Photos High-resolution JPEG Minimum 3000px on longest side; print-ready
Raw / Unedited Photos JPEG (as captured) Original camera quality, no processing
Video Teasers MP4 1080p HD (4K for Ultimate); colour graded
Physical Album 12ร—36 in panoramic print Premium glossy / matte finish; archival quality
  • Colour space: sRGB for maximum compatibility across screens and print
  • Files are organised in clearly named folders with sequential numbering
  • One round of revision is included for editing โ€” additional revisions are chargeable

No technical support is provided for issues viewing files on outdated devices, incompatible software, or devices with insufficient storage. If you have difficulty opening files, please ensure your device and software are up to date.

10

Delivery Notifications

When your deliverables are ready, you will be notified via:

  • WhatsApp โ€” primary notification with the download link
  • Email โ€” backup notification to your registered email address

Important: The 30-day download validity period starts from the date and time of the delivery notification โ€” regardless of whether you have opened or accessed the link. Please monitor your WhatsApp and email after the expected delivery date.

If you do not receive a delivery notification within the estimated timeline, please contact us proactively. Do not assume files are on their way โ€” reach out and we'll give you an update.

11

Delayed Deliveries & Force Majeure

While we strive to meet every delivery timeline, delays may occasionally occur due to:

  • High volume of events during peak festive or wedding season
  • Complex editing requirements involving a large number of photos or longer videos
  • Technical issues such as software updates, hardware maintenance, or power disruptions
  • Force majeure events โ€” natural disasters, government restrictions, health emergencies
  • Client-requested additional editing rounds that extend the production timeline

In the event of a delay beyond the stated timeline, we will notify you proactively with a revised estimated delivery date. Delivery delays do not constitute grounds for cancellation or refund under our Refund & Cancellation Policy.

If we're running late, we'll tell you. We won't leave you wondering. You'll always hear from us before a deadline passes.

12

Acceptance of Deliverables

Clients have 7 days from the delivery notification date to review all deliverables and report any legitimate technical issues, such as:

  • Missing files โ€” significantly fewer photos or videos than agreed in the package
  • Corrupted files โ€” files that cannot be opened or are clearly damaged
  • Wrong event content โ€” deliverables that clearly belong to a different event

After the 7-day acceptance window, all deliverables are considered reviewed and accepted. Claims regarding subjective matters โ€” editing style, colour tone, personal preference in photo selection, number of "good" photos โ€” will not be entertained after this period.

Note on editing style: Our editing approach โ€” colour tone, brightness, contrast โ€” is consistent with our portfolio. If you have a specific editing preference or reference, please communicate it before the shoot. Post-delivery editing style changes are chargeable.
