Our policies reflect industry standards and we go into every project with a be kind, work hard mindset.


Hours
If a project starts earlier than 7 AM or is expected to go beyond 6 PM please inform us upon confirmation. Typically early or late hours are subject to OT rates. Full days for print are based
on 8 consecutive hours unless otherwise negotiated. Half day rates are based on 4 consecutive hours unless otherwise negotiated and billed at 60% of full day rate. Motion shoots are based on 10 consecutive hours unless otherwise negotiated. Lunch is billed as on the clock.


Unconfirmed options
When a client holding a first option on an artist is challenged by a second option we will do our best to contact the client to request a confirmation or release. If we do not hear back from the client holding the first option within 4 hours we reserve the right to confirm the challenging option.


Cancellations
Confirmed bookings cancelled more than 24 business hours in advance are billed at 50% of artist’s rate. Confirmed bookings cancelled within 24 business hours are billed at 100% of artist’s rate. If a confirmed booking is cancelled and other job opportunities have been lost, rate is billed at 100% regardless of rescheduling. If a project is cancelled or postponed, client is responsible for all expenses incurred up to that time, this includes talent’s day rate and out of pocket ex- penses. Client will be responsible for payment of all expenses for any reshoot.


Editorial Bookings
Editorials are billed at half rate when credit lines are published.


Agency Fee
An agency fee of 20% is billed in addition to all artist fees. However the agency fee is not added to expenses.


Billing
Invoices will be sent on completion of booking. If billing is done on a time card please advise us prior to the shoot. Invoice terms are net 30 days from invoice date.


Travel
When confirming a project, please advise us if the location is beyond city limits. Travel is billed at half rate each way, plus agency fee.
