Travel Expenses

Airline Travel Policy:

For shoots requiring airline travel, first-class accommodations will be provided for all crew members. Additional charges for luggage and equipment fees assessed by the airline will be added to the total cost. A 15% surcharge will be applied to cover any additional expenses not specifically itemized by the airline.

Travel Time (Automobile)

  • For remote photo shoots, travel time is calculated from the closer of downtown Nampa, Idaho or the crew’s hotel location to the photo shoot destination.
  • This policy applies to all crew members and accounts for the additional labor involved.

Additional Travel Fee

If travel time exceeds 30 minutes one-way, a fee of $20.00 per crew member is charged for every 15-minute increment beyond the initial 30 minutes. This fee is calculated for both directions (to and from the location).

Meal Expense Policy:

For every 4-hour period of travel away from the studio, a $25.00 meal expense will be added to the total fee to cover meal costs during the extended travel.

Overnight Stay Policy:

For photo shoots requiring travel to a location 6 hours or more away from the studio, hotel accommodations will be added at a minimum rate of $300.00 a night, or more, depending on market rate. The accommodations must meet the following criteria:

  • Located in a safe area with a minimum 3-star rating or higher.
  • Includes two or more separate beds for members of the same sex. Additional room rentals will be required to accommodate crew members of different sexes.
  • Within a 30-mile radius (if possible) of the shoot location.

This ensures comfort and convenience for our team while providing high-quality service during your shoot.
