MODEL RELEASE

RATES

Contact me with your project information and I would be happy to provide you with my booking info and rates.
I’m a full time model, it’s my profession and livelihood. I would be happy to provide you with an invoice.
I might ask you a 50 % deposit.

CANCELLATION POLICY

Belgium: I keep the 50% deposit or charge 50 % of the total rate if cancelled 7 days before the shoot. 100% if cancelled 48h or less before the shoot.
Abroad: When travelling, I have non-refundable travel expenses. In case of cancellation 3 weeks before the shoot, I keep the 50 % deposit or charge 50 % of the total amount. 100% if cancelled 7 days or less before the shoot.

In case I have to cancel our shoot, which is very unlikely, the deposit will be transferred back to your account.

Booking a shoot with me equals agreeing with the cancellation policy and to my terms in general.

Payment terms

1. Payment must be made without suspension or set-off within a maximum of 14 days from the invoice date by transferring the due amount to the specified IBAN in the name of BEdressed in Ghent.

2. Upon the expiration of the payment term, the counterparty is in default by operation of law, without the need for a notice of default. As soon as the counterparty is in default, all (future) claims of BEdressed against the counterparty become immediately due and payable, and default also applies to these claims without notice of default or any other prior declaration within the meaning of Article 6:80 et seq. of the Dutch Civil Code. In that case, BEdressed is entitled to suspend its obligations under any agreement with the counterparty until full payment of all due claims has been received.

3. If the counterparty fails to meet any (payment) obligation in a timely manner, all costs incurred to obtain payment out of court shall be borne by the counterparty, in addition to the principal sum. The extrajudicial collection costs amount to at least 15% of the principal sum due, with a minimum of €40.00 excluding VAT, unless the counterparty is a consumer, in which case the collection costs are determined in accordance with the Decree on Compensation for Extrajudicial Collection Costs.

For Business Customers (B2B), the following applies:
Any invoice that remains unpaid on the due date will automatically and without prior notice be increased by 12% annual interest and a fixed compensation equal to 15% of the invoice amount, with a minimum of 75 euros.

If the invoice is not paid within the stipulated payment term, a reminder procedure will be initiated.
If the reminder is sent by a bailiff, the rate for civil and commercial matters as per the Royal Decree of 30.11.1976 will apply.
This rate will be used for both the amicable phase (including but not limited to: reminder – inquiry – file fee – discharge and collection fee) and any legal proceedings.
All costs incurred as a result will be borne by the debtor.

For Private Customers:
The claim will be increased with late payment interest, equal to the interest referred to in Article 5, second paragraph, of the Law of August 2, 2002, concerning the fight against late payments in commercial transactions.
The late payment interest will start accruing from the calendar day following the day on which the first reminder was sent to the customer.

Additionally, the customer will be liable for a fixed compensation as follows:

For invoices up to 150 euros: 20 euros.
For invoices between 151 and 500 euros: 30 euros plus 10% of the outstanding amount calculated on the portion between 150.01 and 500 euros.
For invoices exceeding 500 euros: 65 euros plus 5% of the outstanding amount calculated on the portion from 500.01 euros.

The compensation for private customers will never exceed 2,000 euros.

4. In the event of liquidation, bankruptcy, (temporary) suspension of payment, or if the debt restructuring scheme is declared applicable to the counterparty, or if an attachment is levied against the counterparty, as well as in cases of force majeure, all obligations of the counterparty under any agreement become immediately due and payable. In such cases, BEdressed is entitled to suspend the performance of any agreement with the counterparty or to terminate that agreement.

5. The court in Ghent has exclusive jurisdiction to hear any disputes that may arise between the counterparty and BEdressed. However, BEdressed retains the right to bring the dispute before the competent court of the counterparty’s place of residence.
