Licensing, Payments & Legal Details.
By ordering services from JBuff Productions you agree to the following Service Agreement for Digital Imagery. We hope these policies are helpful and instructional as we work together to create beautiful photographs for your marketing.
Cancellation Policy: **There are no fees for appointments that are cancelled 24 hours in advance. If cancelled on the day of 50% will be due. However, once a photographer is on the way/has arrived onsite to the property the full amount is due. This does not cover a re-shoot that will require a full invoice upon the actual service. This is due to prioritizing your appointment to make sure the time/day that is set for your initial appointment is locked in, often resulting in other clients taking a different time slot.

1 year licensing or until listing is sold if less than 1 year.
