What are the Photographer's expectations of the customer will be?

• You will respect that the  Photographer or Assistant knows what they are doing.

• You will work with the  Photographer or Assistant to pose accordingly for the light, failure to do so will result in the job being cut

• You will not try to tell the  Photographer or Assistant how to do their Job 

• Disrespecting the Photographer or Assistant in any way will terminate the Job
  (I understand sometimes things are stressful but work with me, be kind and respectful and we can get through this)

• You will not offer the photographer or assistant alcohol and drugs

• The Retainer Fee is to be paid prior to the day of the job

• You will not change the shooting location multiple times in a single day this will null and void the job... I have a tendency of scoping the location out days before a shoot and leaving 2 or 3 hours earlier than the shooting time, I pack accordingly for the job and if you change the location multiple times I won't know what equipment to bring or it might be too late... I don't respect last-minute changes unless they are within reason.
