Booking & Service Guidelines

  1. Mandatory Consultation Before Booking
    A consultation is required before booking any session. Clients must complete a consultation with Eye Of Avella prior to submitting a booking or payment. This consultation ensures that the requested service, date, location, package, creative direction, and expectations are properly discussed and confirmed.

Failure to complete the required consultation prior to booking may result in forfeiture of the booking and/or deposit. Submitting a booking without completing the consultation does not guarantee that the requested service, date, or location will be accepted.

  1. Booking & Deposit
    A mandatory 50% deposit is required to secure your session date and time. Deposits are non-refundable but are applied toward your total session cost. Sessions are not confirmed until the required deposit is received and the booking has been approved.

  2. Payment
    Full payment is due prior to your session or upon delivery of final images. Accepted payment methods include Cash, Credit Card, PayPal, Square, and more.

  3. Cancellation & Rescheduling
    Deposits are non-refundable and secure your date, time, and service. Rescheduling is allowed with at least 7 days notice and is subject to availability. Cancellations or refund requests made within 72 hours of the scheduled session will not be eligible for refunds due to prior planning, preparation, and time reserved for your project.

  4. Session Time & Punctuality
    Sessions begin at the scheduled time. Late arrivals may shorten your session time. Extended session time may be available at an additional rate. Please plan accordingly to avoid delays.

  5. Image Delivery & Turnaround
    Turnaround times are strictly enforced and vary depending on your selected package or service. Specialty or high-volume sessions may require longer turnaround times, as specified during consultation or within the selected package.

  6. Image Usage & Copyright
    All images are copyrighted by the photographer. Clients may use delivered images for personal or agreed-upon commercial purposes. Additional commercial licensing must be requested and may incur additional fees.

  7. Model Release
    By booking, clients grant Eye Of Avella permission to use images from their session for marketing, social media, portfolio, website, promotional materials, and other business-related purposes, unless otherwise agreed upon in writing before the session.

  8. Liability & Safety
    The photographer is not responsible for injuries, accidents, or personal/property damage that may occur during a session. Clients agree to follow all safety guidelines and instructions, especially during outdoor or on-location sessions.

  9. Property Damage
    Clients are fully responsible for any damage or breakage to property, photography equipment, studio items, rented spaces, or other property caused by the client or members of their party during the session. Any repair or replacement costs will be the responsibility of the client.

  10. Same-Day Fee
    Same-day shooting may be available upon request and is subject to an additional fee. Availability is not guaranteed and must be confirmed in advance. Same-day requests do not bypass the mandatory consultation requirement.

  11. Travel Policy
    Eye Of Avella is based in Atlanta, Georgia, with travel services available. Locations more than one hour from Atlanta may incur a travel fee. Travel fees will be assessed and discussed during the required consultation prior to booking.

  12. Booking Acknowledgment
    By submitting a booking request or payment, the client acknowledges that they have read, understood, and agreed to these Booking & Service Guidelines. A consultation must be completed and approved before booking is considered valid.

  13. Additional Edits & Images
    1–2 business day turnaround is $100. 3–5 business day turnaround is $50. Additional edits requested after the final images have been delivered are subject to an additional fee. Additional images not included in the selected package are $20 per image.
