Cancellation Policy: HL understands that homes may not be ready for shooting as expected when the package was scheduled. It is the responsibility of the listing agent/scheduling person to let us know as soon as possible if the home will not be ready so that the shoot can be rescheduled. There is a $50 charge for any cancellation/reschedule within 4 hours of the scheduled time.
Weather Policy: There are bound to be times when services are ordered but cannot be completed due to weather. In those circumstances, the decision about shooting is up to the listing agent/scheduling person, at the photographer’s discretion. If no notice is given, we will assume the scheduled shoot will proceed. During inclement weather, if the scheduling person chooses to shoot only interior, outdoor photos can be taken on a better weather day. The 2nd trip fee is $60.
