FAQ

Rather than offering a flat hourly rate, I provide structured pricing based on the type of event, scope of coverage, and how the images will be used. Events vary widely in complexity, so a short phone call allows me to understand your needs and provide accurate, transparent pricing that fits your event.

Yes. Event coverage begins at $725, regardless of the total time on-site. This minimum ensures proper preparation, coverage, and delivery standards for every event.

Yes. Headshot activations can be built into a custom event photography package and scheduled to run either simultaneously with event coverage or during a dedicated time block within the event. Headshot sessions can also be booked as stand-alone services. Because setup, timing, and staffing vary, this is typically planned during a consultation.

Yes. Larger or multi-day events such as conferences, summits, expos, and retreats are always quoted custom. These bookings may include a percentage-based discount depending on the overall scope and schedule, which is best discussed during a consultation

Absolutely — this is one of the most valuable parts of the process. Many clients aren’t sure how much coverage makes sense until they talk through the event flow, priorities, and intended use of the images. A short phone call allows me to make thoughtful recommendations so coverage aligns with both your goals and your budget.

For conferences, brand activations, and larger events, booking as early as possible is recommended. Availability can be limited during peak seasons. If your event date is approaching, the fastest way to confirm availability is to schedule a brief call.

We begin with a consultation call to assess the needs of your event. After the call, I’ll follow up with a formal quote and contract, typically within 48 hours. Once the contract is signed and the deposit is paid, your date is confirmed and we’re ready to move forward.

Yes. A 25% deposit is required to reserve your event date. The remaining balance is due within 48 hours after the event. Once the contract is signed and the deposit is received, your date is officially secured.

You’ll receive 8–12 highlight images within 24 hours of your event, followed by a full gallery delivery within 7–10 days. Delivery timelines may vary slightly depending on the scope of coverage or any expedited options discussed during your consultation.

Base packages include standard licensing, which allows you to use the images indefinitely for internal use, websites, and social media. If you need broader usage — such as paid advertising, large-scale campaigns, or extended commercial licensing — those options can be discussed during your inquiry call.

Yes. Budget considerations are part of the consultation process. By understanding your vision, priorities, and intended use of the images, I can recommend coverage options that offer the best value for your specific needs.

Yes. I carry professional liability insurance and can provide a Certificate of Insurance (COI) upon request.

Only in the case of an emergency would I be unable to photograph your event. In that rare situation, I have a trusted network of experienced professional photographers — each with their own established businesses — who can step in to ensure your event is fully covered.
