How it Works

Getting great photos with a group means having ample time on your shoot to do so. In order to do that, we have required package lengths based on number of participants. Our group maximums are as follows:

• 30 mins: max 6
• 60 mins: max 10
• 90 mins: max 15

*If more people show up to your shoot than you originally indicated on your booking form and the total number of people then exceeds the package requirement, extra people above the limit will be charged at $75 per person. The package length and photo quantities will remain as originally booked.

Yes, we are able to shoot commercial projects and events. Note that we do not provide any special lighting, props, or styling; all extra equipment and peripherals will be the customer's responsibility. For questions about commercial shoots, please contact us here with the details of your project. We will then send you more information about commercial pricing & licensing options.

We will send you an email with link to your online gallery within five business days. There will also be a link in that email to leave feedback and tell about your experience, so please be sure to let us know!

The Flytographer packages include only the 'best of the best' from your shoot – as industry practice, your photographer removes any photos with funny faces, closed eyes, and improper lighting. Due to the nature of candid photography, not all shots that are taken will turn out as planned, but if you have any 'must have' shots, we would be more than happy to prioritize those shots so that they end up in your final gallery.

If you need to cancel for any reason, please email or call us and we will refund 90% of your booking fee as long as you provide us no less than 15 days' notice prior to your scheduled shoot date.

Within 15 days, once the shoot date and time are confirmed (ie. the “Shoot Scoop” is delivered), you may cancel up to seven (7) days in advance of the date and time of the reservation for a 50% refund; we will retain the 50% balance for processing and handling fees. If the Shoot Scoop has NOT been confirmed within this time frame, you may cancel for a 90% refund.

Within seven (7) days of the shoot date and time, all sales are final and there is no refund for cancelled shoots. Please visit our Terms of Service for complete details regarding our cancellation policy.

Please text or email your photographer if you are delayed. If you arrive late, keep in mind your photographer may have another shoot booked right after, and it's unlikely your shoot can be extended (although it's always possible, so please ask!). We suggest arriving early and even having a drink nearby so you don't begin your experience in a 'rushed' state of mind. Remember: traffic in big cities can be unpredictable.

Should you wish to extend beyond the time of your scheduled session and the photographer is available, add-on time is charged at a rate of $165 USD per 30 mins.

If you arrive late for your session, any time that has passed from your original start time will be forfeited, and you may shoot for the remainder of the time you have booked. The number of photos delivered may be adjusted to reflect the actual time spent together. You may add additional time if the photographer is free; add-on time is charged at a rate of $165 USD per 30 mins.

Should you wish your photographer to wait for you to arrive beyond the time your session was set to end, the extra waiting time will be charged at a rate of $50 USD per 15 minutes, on top of any fee for an extension of the shoot (add-on shoot time is charged at $165 USD per 30 minutes).

Usually, yes, but sometimes photographers have booked the rest of their day around the location you've already chosen so it may not be possible. This is especially true for last-minute changes. We will always try our best to accommodate you, but please note that due to other circumstances, once a route is chosen, we may not be able to change it.

A travel fee is an additional charge that photographers may apply to cover expenses associated with traveling to or shooting at your chosen location. This fee varies based on factors such as distance, travel time, special permits, ticket prices, and tolls.

Since our photographers are located in different areas and travel distances can vary, each photographer sets their own travel fee. Not all photographers charge travel fees, and the amounts can differ depending on their location.

To avoid surprises, please ensure that you review and accept the travel fee before confirming your booking. If a photographer has a travel fee, you will see this information displayed on a photographer's profile page. It will also be included in their response to your booking request. By confirming your booking and making payment, you are accepting any travel fees, so please ensure you review carefully your photographer's response. The fee you accepted will also be displayed on your final Shoot Scoop confirmation for easy reference.

Travel fees must be paid in cash in local currency directly to your photographer on the day of the shoot. If you prefer to use a payment app or another method, please arrange this directly with your photographer when you are connected 3 days before the shoot. If you have any questions about travel fees, message us in your Concierge Inbox or email us at concierge@flytographer.com.

We suggest you book at least a week in advance, although we will attempt to accommodate last minute requests (but no promises). The ideal time frame to ensure you get YOUR preferred time/date is at least 4 weeks in advance.

Flytographer is not set up to service weddings, unfortunately. We will make referrals to photographers on special request! We do have the option of a portrait session before or after your ceremony, to capture your newlywed memories (this applies for destination shoots only).
