Updated Policies 06/2023

Payment Policies

We accept debit or credit through our website. 

Payment for marketing is upfront.

For photography, payment is due immediately after the photoshoot.

Permit Requirement Policy

Before we agree on the location of the photoshoot, we make sure to look if a permit is required. If it is required, the client must obtain one.

Refund Policies

For marketing, refunds will be given only in case that we do not meet our guaranteed offer.

For photography, it’s non-refundable unless there’s an emergency and Optimum AdVantage cannot make it. 

If you’re not satisfied with our work, we will either re-edit the photos or give you credit to redo the photoshoot.

Cancelation Policies

If the client needs to reschedule a meeting, it should be 1 day before the appointment. Closest amount of time to cancel or reschedule needs to be at least 3-4 hours in advance.

If the client cancel this service for which all agreements have been executed, the client agrees to pay Optimum AdVantage a cancellation fee representing 20% of the total for the service contract.

Late Policies

If the client appears to an appointment 20 minutes late, the appointment will be cancelled and non-refundable.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.

You can email us at [email protected] or reach us by phone at 669-946-7073.
