For your benefit
Real Estate Terms and Conditions.
RIGHTS & USAGE
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 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. Images will not be modified after delivery in any way by any party unless permission by me is granted.
SCHEDULING
I 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 my home preparation guide to ensure the home is cleaned and staged. All properties will be shot "as is".
TRAVEL
I am 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, my interpretation of the property will be deemed acceptable. I 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. It's understood that without your input, I will photograph the property using my experience and judgment.
AFTER THE SHOOT
After the initial shoot, I 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 within two business days of the photo shoot. I will provide one set of images, optimized for MLS and web use. Expedited delivery is available for an additional cost.
CANCELLATION & HOME ACCESS
Please note, a cancellation fee of $50 will be charged for any shoot cancelled within 24 hours of a "booked" appointment. If the client, homeowner, or a representative is not available to provide access to the home during the allotted shooting time, I will consider it a cancellation and the full rate will be billed. Access codes such as lockbox information is also accepted.
PAYMENT
Payment is due within 10 days of the initial photo shoot. A late fee of 2.25% will be automatically applied after 10 days, and every 10 days thereafter until the balance is paid in full. We accept cash, check, or any type of electronic payment. If you wish to pay using your credit card please contact me for processing.
