Rates

Due to the subjective nature of my work and likewise of your demands, my rates may vary depending on the project.

If you are interested in hiring me please use the contact form on this site and include as much information as possible. This makes it easier to tailor my work to your needs and requirements but also it allows for pricing guidance. The more information I receive, the more accurate a quote I can provide you with.

MMU STUDENTS: I work closely with other departments in Art & Design, and approach costing to each job INDIVIDUALLY - although I am studying, this is my full time job and I DO NOT WORK FOR FREE.

DEPOSIT/CONFIRMATION OF DATES/PAYMENT

All payments must be made via paypal/cash/cheque and the full amount must be paid within 30 days of the date of the invoice.

If a shoot is cancelled or postponed by anyone other than myself then I may charge you the quoted price (in the order form) at my own discretion. This is in compliance with the terms and conditions indicated at:
