FAQ

Booking, pricing and delivery

How far in advance should I book?

Four to eight weeks for Saturday dates in peak season, which in New York means May, June, September, October and December. Two weeks is usually fine for weeknights and off-season. Inside a week, call (347) 419-3170 rather than filling in a form.

How much does it cost?

General photography starts at $200 per hour. Corporate event photography starts at $275 per hour with a two-hour minimum. Wedding photography starts at $1,200 for four hours, and six-hour wedding photography and videography starts at $2,350. Everything is quoted flat before booking.

How fast do we get photos?

A first-look gallery of edited selects within 48 hours on events, and the full edited gallery within 14 days. Individual headshots are delivered within three business days. Team headshot days within five business days. Same-night and same-day rush options are available.

Do you shoot with one photographer or two?

Two is standard on events with 75 or more guests, and on any event with a ceremony plus a party. Smaller events and shorter blocks run with one. We will tell you which your event needs rather than upselling by default.

What happens if it rains, or the venue changes?

We reschedule or adapt at no charge as long as we know before the day. For outdoor portrait sessions we build a weather call into the booking and pick an alternate date up front.

Do you have insurance and can you provide a COI?

Yes. Most Manhattan venues require a certificate of insurance naming them as additional insured. Send us the venue's contact and we handle it directly with them.

Can you sign an NDA?

Yes. Corporate and private clients regularly need one, and we will also waive our portfolio rights in writing if your event is confidential.

Who owns the photos?

You do, for personal and internal use, from delivery. Corporate bookings include full commercial usage for marketing, press, recruiting and social. We retain portfolio rights unless you ask us not to.

Do you shoot real estate and commercial interiors?

Yes. Commercial real estate, restaurant and hospitality interiors, offices, retail and residential listings are a full service line, with next-business-day delivery on listings. What we do not shoot is styled food and product photography, which our sister studio Foreign Kollective handles.

Do you travel outside New York City?

Yes. No travel fee inside 40 miles of Downtown Brooklyn, covering the five boroughs, most of Long Island, lower Westchester and North Jersey. Further out, including Philadelphia and Connecticut, travel is quoted flat before you book.

Can we add video?

Yes. Highlight videos and short-form vertical clips can be added to any event or branding booking, quoted per project.

How do we book?

Send your date through the contact form or call (347) 419-3170. We confirm availability and send a flat quote, usually the same day. A 50% retainer and a signed agreement hold the date.
