FAQ
Frequently asked questions
How much deposit do photographers ask for?
For weddings and events, a booking deposit of 25 to 50 percent is common to secure the date. The rest is invoiced before or shortly after the shoot.
Should photographers include usage rights on the invoice?
Yes. Mention how the client may use the photos, for example personal or commercial use, in the terms. It avoids confusion and is especially important for business clients.
How do photographers invoice prints and albums?
As separate lines with the size and quantity, apart from the session fee, so the client sees what they're paying for beyond the shoot.
