How to use this web site, purchase and payment information, delivery and refund policies:


Account setup:

An account is not required just to browse the site.  

Before purchasing photos, you will be required to set up an account and verify your email to confirm the email address is current and valid.  If you do not receive a confirmation/verification email, please check that it has not gone into a spam/junk folder in your email client/program or on your server.  Verification emails work as dual purpose client/website protection against fraudulent transactions..    

You will need to be logged in to your account before you can order photos.  If you have any problems with your account setup, please email us at [email protected] and we will assist where we can.  If the problem is with your email client/server, you will need to have access to your junk/spam folder in order to retrieve our account verification email.  

Photo reviewing:

All photos from events are stored in sections called Galleries.

You can select a gallery by selecting the menu option "Galleries" in the top main menu of the web site to show all the galleries. Once at the Gallery home page, you may scroll the page down to see the galleries. Simply click on the name, or image under the name to enter the gallery.  If the event was spread over several days, then further sub-galleries may be displayed.  Select a sub-gallery by clicking on its name or image, just like before.
Once a gallery has been selected, the photos in the gallery are displayed as small images called thumbnails.
Hovering over each thumbnail are two icons, add to cart and select as favourite.  Once the thumbnail has been clicked on, there are options to select as favourite or compare.  Once you have individually selected photos for comparison, you will be able to compare them all side by side for easier choosing.  
You can see all your favourites by clicking on the favourites menu option in the client menu after you have selected your favourite images.
Clicking the thumbnail image or the purchase icon will display a preview of the photo and allow you to order a print or download a digital image file.  

If there are any photos of yourself or your dog which you would like removed, please contact us and we will do so asap.

Photo Products:  There are 2 types of products you can order, Standard Prints and Digital Image files.
Standard prints are physical photos that are printed and posted to you.
We have a range of sizes from 5 x 7 size to A2/A2+ (420 x 594 mm/432 x 559 mm).
Click on the print size you would like to order and the preview image will change slightly showing the default cropping that may occur in the printing process. NOTE: Cropping during the printing process may be different to what is shown on the screen, depending on the dimensions of the print paper.
You may also be presented with an option to request additional editing of the image (eg removal of person, etc). You can select this option by clicking on the box below the option.  When checked (ticked), you can select the "Make notes for this image" to enter what changes you would like done.  Major editing will incur an extra charge.
Click the "Add to Cart" button to order the print.
You can now complete the order by clicking the "Check Out" option at the top or bottom of page, or go back and look at other photos by clicking the name of the Gallery at the top of the page.  If you are using a device and are unable to find the "Add to Cart" button, scroll right to the bottom of the gallery page and click on "View Full Website", which will enable full website capability.  
Digital Image files are downloadable files that may be used for websites (eg Facebook), printed using your own printers, using in your own advertisements.
Since the Digital Images files are available as soon as payment has been verified there is no option for additional editing. If additional editing is required please make a note on that photo with your request.  Major editing will incur an extra charge.
You can now complete the order by clicking the "Check Out" option at the top or bottom of page, or go back and look at other photos by clicking the name of the Gallery at the top of the page.


Prints are generally processed and delivered within approx  7 days of ordering, except during long shoots where delivery times may extend to approx 14 days (we are also dependant on Australia Post delivery times).  If you have not received a print within 14 days of purchase, please contact us so that we can trace it or re-send the order if need be.

NB:  Please choose your photos carefully. Once digital images have been downloaded, any photos will be deemed to have been delivered and used and therefore not returnable or refundable.  If you have purchased a photo in error or accidentally purchased a duplicate photo, please contact us prior to download and we will be happy to provide a full refund.

Ingrid Matschke Photography's refund policy complies with Australian Consumer Law in relation to major faults/defects.
