May I Tell Your Story With My Photography?
You've put hours of imagination, thought, and collaboration into your project. It didn't quite turn out the way you imaginend--it actually turned out better!! Now the world needs to know about it so they know what you are capable of creating. Hi, I'm Julie and I want to tell your design story with my eye for interior or exterior space. You've got a story to tell and an accomplishment to acknowledge. I want to understand your concepts and ideas so I can communicate your project to your future clients with my photography. My goal is to get you noticed, talked about and hired! So please, give me a call or send me an email and tell me about your project. I would love to hear your story! As an artist, I know the excitement of someone else understanding your unique vision. Let's get together on your next project. Sincerely, Julie Julie Legg Photography

How To Prepare For A Successful Photography Session?1. Be sure to book a photography session early and as far out as possible on the calendar. A booking consists of three things: • A date • A time • A confirmation between all involved. When those three things are on my calendar, no one can take your spot. However, if I have a date but no time and/or confirmation, the session will not be placed on my calendar. I also require any changes to be made 24 hours prior to the session. 2. Ask your client to have the areas to be photographed made "photography ready". • Spaces must be cleared of clutter. We are looking for the minimalist look. • Clean windows/glass/mirrors • Remove items you don't want photographed, like family photos. • Turn off all TVs, clean the screen, keep the screen black or use a still photo of the logo. • Clean floors as foot prints can be seen in photos. • Let employees, workers, etc know the area is going to be photographed. If necessary we can schedule a time when people will not be there. Another option is for that I can set up the camera and the lighting while people are working, then we can have them step away from their desk for 5 or 10 minutes while I take the photo. • Remove banners and signage.

What Are Your Rates?Julie Legg Photography will work with your budget as much as possible. Rates are founded on the time and skill it takes to complete an entire project from the photography session to the post production. It is not unusual for post production work to consume even more time than the photography. The Photography Session Fee also includes a non-exclusive and non-transferable standard licensing rights for all your marketing and social media (photo credit required for social media only). Please call or email for pricing.

What Is Cost-Sharing? Do You Offer Discounts?Cost-sharing is a multi-party arrangement where the total cost of a project is shared by the contributing partners according to an agreed upon formula. For instance you might work with an architect, an engineer, a contractor, a product manufacturer, an interior designer, etc. I charge a licensing fee for each additional partner, then divide the total fee by the number of parties involved, which leads to huge savings for all. I do not offer discounts, but cost-sharing is the path to reduce fees for your project and anyone else who is interested in using the photos to promote their business or product. The more people you can include, the lower the cost for everyone. Your partners will be grateful you included them!

Do You Offer Day Rates?Yes I offer a half day rate which is a photography session lasting of up to 4 hours max. After that I offer a full day rate which last from 4 hours to 8 hours max. Any hour after the max is billed at an hourly rate on top of the half or full day rate. During this time I will photograph any shot you need. I can do wide, medium or vignette types of shots.

Who Owns The Images?All of my images are the intellectual property of Julie Legg Photography LLC. I retain the copyrights to all the images I create per Federal Copyright Law. Images are licensed to all clients for specific use. I require all clients to sign a brief one-page license agreement before a photography session. It is very similiar to ownership of computer software. If you "buy", Microsoft Office, you don't technically own it. You've simply purchased a license for use on your computer. If you want to install the same software on other computers you will need to buy a license from Microsoft for each computer.

Can I Share The Images With Others?Third-party usage is not included in my licensing agreements. Others interested in using the images must obtain permission either through multi-party cost sharing before the photography session or purchase a stock photography license from Julie Legg Photography after the session to avoid infringement.

Can I Post The Images To Social Media?Yes, I want your project to get as much traction as possible and social media usage is included in my licensing agreements. I do ask that you give a photo credit for all social media posts as follows: @jleggphoto
