Booking, cancellation & rescheduling

Applies to weddings and events

Booking your date

• A 25% retainer holds your date. Until it arrives, the date is still open to other bookings.
• The remaining balance is due 14 days before the shoot.
• I take card, cash or check. A check counts as paid once it has fully cleared my bank, not when it's deposited.

If you cancel

More than 30 days before the shoot	Full refund
Less than 30 days before	Retainer kept, the rest refunded

If you need to reschedule

• One move is free if you tell me at least 14 days ahead and the new date is within 12 months. Your retainer carries over.
• If I'm already booked on the new date, it's treated as a cancellation under the table above.
• If you have to move with less than 14 days' notice, I'll do my best to make it work, but the cancellation table applies.
• If event hours run longer than booked, extra time is billed at $250 an hour.

If I have to cancel

If illness or an emergency keeps me from shooting, you get everything you've paid back, retainer included.

Film

Film is film: a few frames on every roll won't turn out, and that's part of the medium. But if a lab or camera fault ruins a whole roll, I refund that roll's share of the fee.

Printed editorial

You can cancel the magazine any time before it goes to the printer, for a full refund of the editorial fee. Once it has been sent to print, the printing cost can't be refunded.
