• You are investing in my work of art. I work hard to ensure you are always pleased with the results of your images. My editing includes black and white, color, facial blemishes, hair, and anything else that would distract you from the final product. I do not wash out colors, I keep them vivid and bold. Additional editing services are available, 50$/hour.

• The amount of photos you receive are the ones I feel are the best, typically about half of the amount I take. If two are very similar, typically one will be in black and white.

• My turn around time for a photography session is a month to two months, weddings are three to four months during peak season (June-October). I am just as excited to get them back to you as you are to see them! This time frame could be shortened season depending. 

• Payment of any photo session is due upon the date of the session and any products upon placing the order (example: album). A non-refundable deposit of 100$ is due to reserve your session date.

• I currently accept checks ( made payable to "Ashley Rand"), PayPal, Venmo, Apple cash, or cash. The balance of any photo session package is due upon the end of photographing the session. The chosen package is non refundable once the session is photographed. Rebooking is an option (for sessions only) if weather is not acceptable beyond our control. Resolution upgrades available within a year of the session.

• Travel fee over one hour of driving 40$/hour added to all packages.

• a model release is required for every session, upon booking a session.

• A wedding contract is signed upon a package agreement. The wedding deposit is due at the time of signing a contract (half of the agreed total of the package) to reserve your date. The remainder is due when the images are ready. The payment must be paid in full within 30 days of the photos being ready, or a fee of 20%/month interest will be added to the total.

• booking a session means you give consent to a model release (I need a signed note from a parent if you are under 18 years of age). I would never sell your images. I would never share your images without your (or parental if applicable) consent.

• The album company I use is fantastic and everyone loves the result. The pages are lay flat and stain resistant. I do not recommend swimming with it, but they are still nice none the less. 

• I photograph with a Canon 5D Mark IV and use multiple lenses. I have professional props (newborn), backdrops and lighting in my studio or on location. 

• I ask that if you have any in-depth questions after the shoot to please schedule a phone chat with me to go over them so that I have time to be ready for my next session.

• Why an engagement session? Not everyone is incredibly comfortable in front of the camera. This gives you the chance to get a feel for how I work, how I pose, and how it all works. That way, for your special day you are comfortable and confident! 

• See my style guide for what to wear!

• Images are kept for one year from the date of the session. After this time period the Clients are responsible for their images. Through The Pines Photography is not responsible for lost, stolen, or damaged photos in any medium. Please back up your files.
