Additional Fees

1. Travel Cost: A standard mileage charge of .75/mile will be added to shoots outside 25 miles from Hudsonville, MI. Milage charges will be invoice after photo shoot.
2. Commercial rates will be determined on a case by case basis. Please Contact Us to discuss the property and to receive a quote.
3. Any EDDM order will be billed as 2 part billing. 1st billing for design and secondly for printing and mailing. Postage cost in never marked up and is determined based on pieces per route.

Cancellation / Weather Policy

1. Cancellations and reschedules are no charge provided they are done 48 hours prior to the shoot date/time.
2. Cancellations made after deadline will be charged a $50 cancellation fee.
3. If we show up to a property and can't get in, the property is in no shape for photos or the shoot is cancelled by the agent/seller on the day of the shoot, the fee is 75% of the quoted amount. (ie: If the cost of your appointment was $200, the fee would be $150).
4. Photo shoots will continue as scheduled as long as it is not physically raining. If rain is present, we can shoot the interior as the seller has probably put a lot of hard work into getting it ready for the scheduled shoot. We will then return for exterior photos at the earliest day possible where the weather cooperates. (No reschedule fees will be assessed for inclement weather.)
5. If weather conditions are too severe for sensitive camera equipment (heavy rain, high winds, extreme cold etc), we may, at our sole discretion, reschedule your shoot for the next available appointment time. (No reschedule fees will be assessed for inclement weather.)
