Bookings made within 7 days of the shoot/service date: payment in full is required to officially secure the date/time.

Late Payments

Unpaid invoices may incur a 1.5% monthly service charge (or the maximum allowed by law). We may pause work, withhold deliverables, or cancel services for nonpayment. You are responsible for reasonable collection costs, including attorney fees, where permitted.

We generally allow a full, penalty-free refund if all of the following are true:

The booking/service date is at least 7 days in the future at the time of purchase.

If those conditions are not met, the cancellation/rescheduling terms below apply.

Standard Notice

You may reschedule or cancel with at least 24 hours’ notice without an additional penalty (beyond any non-refundable deposit terms stated in writing).

Within 24 Hours

Reschedules/cancellations made with less than 24 hours’ notice may result in the loss of the deposit and may incur additional fees (typically $100 or more, depending on the service and staffing impact).

No-Call / No-Show

Failure to appear for a scheduled service without proper notice may result in being charged up to the full service amount, plus any applicable fees.

Weather / Safety / Force Majeure

If severe weather, venue restrictions, emergencies, or events outside our control prevent services from being performed safely or legally, we will work with you to reschedule. Refunds are not guaranteed unless required by law or stated in writing.

11) Refunds & Returns

Except for the 24-hour purchase cancellation window described above (when applicable), all sales are final and refunds are not offered. Where appropriate and feasible, we may allow rescheduling under the policy above.
