By enrolling in photography workshops via Atmos’ website, you agree to the Terms of Service, which define rights, responsibilities, and policies. Please read the Terms of Service carefully before booking photography workshops via Atmos’ website.

• If the weather forecast for the date/time/location of a photography workshop shows heavy rain (or other variations of severe inclement weather) right through the start-to-finish window, Atmos may reschedule the photography workshop for another date.
  

• If a photography workshop is already in-progress and it starts raining, we will shoot for as long as it is practical — often it is just a passing shower — but if it sets in for a prolonged spell, Atmos may need to 'call it' and end the photography workshop earlier than the advertised time. Atmos’ practical method: if at least half of a photography workshop is completed, there is no reshoot or reschedule and participants will not receive a credit to put towards another photography workshop; if less than half of a photography workshop is completed, participants will receive a credit to put towards another photography workshop.

• Photography workshop dates are subject to a minimum number of three (3) participants and a maximum number of five (5) participants.

• In the rare event that a group photography workshop or 1:1 private session cannot go ahead due to unforeseen circumstances — whether due to a lack of demand or severe weather that makes photography unsafe or impractical — you will be offered the choice of alternative dates (where available) or a photography workshop credit (equivalent to the fee paid for the original photography workshop booking). Refunds will be considered on a case-by-case basis.

Each photography workshop has a fitness rating (easy access, easy, moderate, or hard) — this is shown in the 'Summary / Description' section found on each photography workshop booking page.

• Neutral density filter(s) / graduated neutral density filter(s) — this can be useful for slowing down your shutter speed (e.g. long exposure photography) and creating shallow depth of field photographs in brightly lit environments.

• Effect filter(s) — this can be useful for adding creative effects (such as blur, lens flare, and kaleidoscopic reflections) to your photographs.

• Camera rain cover (or a large sandwich bag and an elastic band) to wrap around your camera(s) and lens / lenses — in case of rain, snow, etc.
