Creation Fee and Scheduling

This creation fee pays for us to plan your photo shoot, photograph you, edit, and prepare your preview images. The fee is not applied towards the purchase of any products. A 50% deposit is due when we commit to your photo shoot date on our schedule. The remaining balance is due 14 days before the shoot date. For photo shoots 4 hours or longer, we may also ask for an advance payment towards an album or other product where the variety of images we create will go to good use.

​

Placing Your Order

A week or two after your photo shoot we meet with you again to show you your pictures, help you pick your favorites, and place your order. We present you with your pictures, along with our suggestions, and help you to quickly edit down to a manageable number for the products you are interested in. We provide a high-touch, consultative approach to help you select the best products, sizes, and options to suit your needs and get the best value for your money. Payment for your order is due in full at the time it is placed. Short-term payment plans are also available. Ordering appointments are typically conducted at your home or an agreed-upon location.

​

Proofing

Most clients preview their images and place their order during their ordering appointment without the need for proofing. If you wish to preview your images ahead of your appointment, we are glad to publish them to our preview website a few days before we meet. 

​

Pickup and Delivery

Print orders are usually completed in 2-3 weeks. Orders including albums or sports composites can take 4-5 weeks. 

​

Rescheduling

Your photoshoot date can be rescheduled at no cost with at least 72 hours notice. While this is very rare, creation fees may be forfeited for missed photo shoots or photo shoots rescheduled with less than 72 hours notice. Often our clients avoid forfeiting their creation fees if we can fill their forfeited photo shoot with another client and/or the client can fill another opening on short notice.

​

Availability and Waiting List

We typically schedule only four photo shoots per day and are usually booked 2-4 weeks in advance. Clients who prefer to have a photo shoot earlier than they were able to schedule can request to be added to our waiting list for an earlier appointment.

​

Prints, Products, Packages and Pricing

We are a full-service studio offering photographic prints, wall decor, coffee table books, announcements and invitations, custom framing, and one-of-a-kind art prints. Most clients purchase a wall-sized print, several gift-sized prints, wallets, and storyboard or coffee table books with their favorite images. Prints are sold a la carte and in Collections. Rather than offer fixed packages, we offer discounted pricing for bundling print collections and signature products like Coffee Table Books, Storyboards, and Sports Composites.

​

Pricing for our prints, products, collections, and packages are available upon request.
