2. Direction of how the images are to be photographed must be specified in the notes section in writing done during the ordering process or in a separate email. Drawings, illustrations, tear sheets, cell phone images, or likeness from other websites, are very helpful to guide the photographer as to your idea of how your product should look.
3. If the product was photographed like the example image provided by the client in style and position and The Client changes their mind and wants a different “look” or object position, than what was specified before shooting than the photographer has the option to cancel the job and refund the money or The Client may pay for any extra photography.
4. If no example or guide images are provided, we reserve the right to use our own professional descression as to how the product should look. There will be only 2 revisions (reshoots) done. Any photography after that The Client has the option to cancel the job or The Client may pay for any extra photography.

1. The client will be given the chance to approve or disapprove an image within the framework of the guide images at the conclusion of the photoshoot via webste page online.

2. If the item arrives unacceptably damaged as determined by the photographer, you will be contacted and given a chance to send a new item to be photographed.
3. We may retouch certain minor flaws inherent in the product but we are not required too.
4. We sometimes do additional propping, which can be described as placing items that are not the product next to the main product to enhance the image. Example: Products such as kitchenware pots and pans may look more attractive with food items displayed within, or alongside them. This may be done in addition to the single item being photographed.
