How and when do we pay you?
Corporate shoots: all corporate clients have the usual 30 days for processing by Accounts.
Private events: a non-refundable deposit of 30% of the agreed quote to secures the date, with the balance due 7 days after the shoot. The full fee must be paid before downloads are made available.
Payment details: almost all my UK clients pay using BACS (Bankers Automated Clearing Services) or PayPal which is the account name, number and sort code printed at the bottom of your invoice. Private clients can call up their bank or go online to make the payment. I only accept cheques from corporate clients.
We are also set up to take card payment in on the day.
How do you photograph events?
Depending on the assignment, our photographers normal arrive around 30-45 minutes before the booked time to say hello, check out the environment and get their cameras ready. In most cases that will be the last time you will need to talk to the photographer unless you require a particular photo.
Defined Imagery event photographers shoot in an documentary style, which simple means candidly and informally. They move around the room discretely capturing the atmosphere and little moments between guest without interaction. Occasional clients request small group poesy shoots which they will be more then happy to do, so feel free to request away.
How can we arrange to discuss my shoot?
Events and cooperate portraits don’t usually call for a meeting in person, but if there are things you’d prefer to go over in person let me know and I’ll include it in your package. We are always happy to arrange a chat on the phone to go over your plans and make sure we’re both on the same page. If you feel an in-person meetings essential let me know and I can include that in your package.
Business photography is all about the collaboration to get the images you need, so let me know and we’ll build it all into your package for you.
