REAL ESTATE PHOTOGRAPHY TERMS & CONDITIONS
SCHEDULING
We require a minimum of 48 hours notice for all photography services- last minute requests will be addressed individually. When scheduling an appointment please include the desired date, the listing address and any other important information about the property. After both parties have agreed on a date and time, the appointment will be considered “booked”. Please use our home preparation guide to ensure the home is cleaned and staged! All properties will be shot “as is”.
TRAVEL
We are happy to provide photography services for properties located outside of our normal service area. A travel fee may be charged for properties located outside of the city limits.
AT THE SHOOT
The client, homeowner, or authorized representative should be present during the shoot. If the client or representative are not available, our interpretation of the property will be deemed acceptable. We will make a reasonable effort to exclude unwanted or unsightly objects before shooting each room-this does not include things like making beds, de-cluttering or moving furniture. Your input is important when choosing which rooms will be photographed and the best angles for each one. It’s understood that without your input, we will photograph the property using our experience and judgment.
AFTER THE SHOOT
After the initial shoot we will digitally process the images. This can include compositing, basic color correction, retouching and preparing master files for final delivery-advanced retouching is available for an additional cost.
DELIVERY
Photos will be delivered electronically to your email address within 48 hours of the photo shoot. Expidited delivery is available for an additional cost.
CANCELLATION & HOME ACCESS
Please note, a cancellation fee of $50 will be charged for any shoot canceled within 24 hours of a “booked” appointment. If the client, homeowner or representative are not available to provide access to the home during the allotted shooting time it will be considered a cancellation and the full rate will be billed.

All images remain the sole property of the photographer and carry a two year limited license-they may be used for all marketing associated with the current sale of the property in accordance with the local MLS rules, Any usage of the images by a third party, including but not limited to architects, builders, stagers, designers, sellers or buyers is strictly prohibited unless approved in writing by the photographer.
