WEDDINGS - STORYBOOK STYLE

 

WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY......................... WITHOUT PACKAGES

                        Wedding photography done in the Storybook fashion allows you complete freedom to customize your wedding album by making your selections after viewing your previews instead of selecting a pre-determined package months before the wedding. 

                        You simply choose one of our Storybook Plans that has sufficient time included to cover your wedding comfortably.  Each Storybook has a non-refundable retainer fee for the photography  service plus a minimum order requirement.   Your pre-paid order minimum is simply a dollar amount set aside for your total orders placed after the wedding.  After you receive the preview album, you make your album selections and gather orders from friends and relatives.

                        All prints,  albums, folios, etc. are individually priced and the total of all orders from parents, relatives and friends may be used to reach your minimum order requirement.  No additional payments are required unless your order exceeds your minimum.

                        All  arrangements in the Storybook Series (except where noted) include a complimentary engagement portrait session in our studio and one wall portrait from any pose taken in the wedding coverage.  Wall portraits range from 11x14 to 20x24 depending upon your chosen Storybook.  Pre-Bridal sessions can also be arranged for a small additional fee. 

 

 

 

FINANCIAL ARRANGEMENTS ............................

                        A non-refundable retainer is required to reserve our services for your wedding photography along with a signed contract.  The required retainer  varies according to the Storybook chosen and must be paid to reserve the photography service for your wedding day. The remaining minimum order fee plus any applicable sales tax is required by the wedding day in installments as follows:  one-third of the remaining balance four months before the wedding day; one-third two months before the wedding day; and, the final one-third is due the week of the wedding.  Usually the last one-third is paid at the time of your final conference with us during the week before your wedding.  Other payment schedules can be arranged with the studio, if necessary. 

                        When the final wedding orders are placed after the wedding, a deposit of at least 50% of any balance in excess of your minimum requirement is required before any orders will be processed.  The remaining balance is due when the orders are delivered.  All wedding orders should be handled and delivered through one source, usually the bride and groom, unless they specify another party to handle the orders.
