General

• Who do you work with?
  I am dedicated to working with those who have a project relating to sustainable architecture, development, and design, climate change solutions, biodiversity and conservation, or are women, minority or diversity-owned companies.

• How far in advance do you schedule shoot days?
  As early as possible especially if you’d like a specific date.

• Do you travel for shoots?
  Yes, let’s discuss!

Pricing

• What do you charge?
  My pricing reflects three categories of value; creativity, post production, and photo usage. Creativity includes all pre-production and day-of activities. Post production is extensive for my work, and usually takes at least as long as the shoot does, but often requires a 2x or 3x multiple of that time. Photo usage is basically considering the questions of how many people will see this, and how many parties stand to make money because of these images. See “license & usage” below for more information.

• Do you offer discounts?
  The best way to see savings is to take advantage of cost-sharing with other parties. The more parties that share the costs, the cheaper it gets for everyone. For more on cost-sharing, see “what is cost-sharing”.

• What is cost-sharing?
  It is very beneficial to consider other parties who might benefit from photographs of your project: owners, interior designers, landscape architects, contractors, consultants, tenants, product manufacturers, engineers, etc. I charge a licensing fee for each additional party, then divide the total fee by the number of parties involved, which can lead to huge savings for each client.

• Do you offer payment plans?
  Ye, over certain dollar amounts I do offer payment plans. Ask about it!

License & Usage

• Who owns the images after a shoot?
  All of my images are intellectual property and registered with the copyright office. I retain the copyrights to all the images I create. Images are licensed to clients for specific use and duration.

• Is licensing included in your pricing?
  All of my commissioned shoots include 10 years of licensing for the following usages: Website, Social Media Pages (photo credit required), Emails, Corporate Collateral, Trade Show Displays, Competition Entries, Portfolios, or Wall Displays, and whose audience is employees, customers, shareholders, or the general public. Additional usage may require additional licensing.

• Is it okay to share the images with other parties or entities?
  Only the parties who have licensed the photos are allowed to use them. Others interested in using the images may obtain the appropriate license from me in order to avoid copyright infringement.

• Is it okay to share photos on social media?
  Definitely! Please include photo credit.
