    Upon delivery of the digital images, client understand that they are responsible for the originals and all copies of their files, documents, digital images, photographs, albums or other products and Elise Welker Photography may not be able to reproduce or replace any such files, documents, digital images, photographs, or other products that are lost, stolen or destroyed. Creating a second back-up copy of digital files is highly recommended. Client must have a computer that is capable of downloading and storing large image files. In the event that client does not have file storage space, a flash drive of images is available for purchase.
