Cancellation and Rescheduling Policy: 

Any cancellation or rescheduling within 3 hours of the photoshoot time or once the photographer has arrived will be subject to a $75 service/trip fee.


Property Condition and Photo Readiness:

By scheduling the photoshoot, you affirm that the property will be ready at the time of the photoshoot. You also understand that there will be a $75 service/trip fee charged when we must return to a property in which it is not our fault. This includes, but is not limited to: the property not being ready, staging incomplete, construction, no key in lockbox, etc. If a partial shoot is requested due to select spaces being incomplete, the photoshoot fee may remain the same and an additional fee will be charged when the photographer is required to return. Fees will vary based on the square footage of the property.


You may download the "Property Checklist" to help prepare for your photoshoot.

There will not be a fee to reschedule the photoshoot due to weather within 3 hours of the photoshoot time. Exterior photos cannot be guaranteed if rain is present.

In the event of severe weather conditions, Abode Photo Co. retains the right to reschedule the photoshoot for the next available appointment time.
