MY PORTFOLIO

FP205 - AVIATION AND AERIAL W/S

The minimum number of students required for this course is 4 (7, or 8). Kondor Photographic reserves the right to cancel a course if the minimum number of students has not enrolled. Should Kondor Photographic need to cancel the workshop for whatever reason, all fees (including retainer fee) will be refunded to those students that have already paid.

Your safety is important to us. In the event that the weather does not permit flying, the helicopter flip will be postponed to another Saturday that does allow it to take-off.
Each student agrees to freely give a full set of all the photo's taken during the workshop/course to Kondor Photographic and the model(s) for their own portfolio / marketing / promotional use as Kondor Photographic and the model(s) see fit. The model(s) and Kondor Photographic undertake to list the photographer's name (CREDIT/BY-LINE) with each photograph used. Full details can be found on the registration form and in the Terms and Conditions page of this website.
