FACE BASED DATA
​
In order to run a wedding photography business, photographs from real weddings are used in social media and on our website to showcase the product we produce and sell. Most clients are happy to have their images displayed, although some clients ask for their pictures to be kept private. There is an option to opt out within our contract and at any time in the future. I avoid posting photographs of children, where written consent has not been given.
