Quick FAQs -
​
*What is the turn-around time for delivery? This is booking dependent. At minimum 3 weeks for most bookings, 4-5 for large events or detailed shoots with multiple inclusions. Some products are ordered externally i.e. Photo-books and will have a longer turnaround. If there is a time-sensitive requirement, such as a business launch, please discuss this with us up front to ensure expectations can be met.
​
*Can I have the 'RAW' or unedited photo file? With respect, no. Pixels and Spice Photography includes expert re-touching services for all bookings, aligned to your type of photo-shoot. Clients are provided with jpeg (or TIFF for media/brand if discussed) files in final versions.
​
*What does 'all quality photos supplied' mean? This means the photographer has used their creative eye to filter through all images and only supply you with the highest quality photos. Any images below their level of quality are removed.
​
*Can I re-edit your photo after I've paid for and received them? Commercial and media works come with full print releases, allowing for use in advertising and promotions. It is expected that reasonable care will be taken not to reduce the quality of the images during additional design works. I respectfully ask that personal clients not apply filters on supplied photos as this is not a true representation of our work. If you are hoping for a particular style of edit, ask, though I do request you consider our editing style and align your decision to book with Pixels and Spice based on your trust in what will be delivered as per current samples of work.
​
*Can I hire you for longer than the stated time frame? Yes. An hourly add-on rate is available. It is preferred that this is arranged in advance, but we are happy to take requests at events if the party is still going strong.
​
*What are your hours of operation? Pixels and Spice operate on weekends and some weeknights and late afternoons. Please refer to the Contact Us page for general hours.
​
*Can you design products like photo-books, save-the-date cards & magnets for me? Yes. Let us know what you're looking for, and we'll happily quote and confirm design options.
​
*When is deposit/payment due? A booking deposit equal to 30% of your chosen service is required to secure service and dates. All deposits for weddings are are non-refundable within 75 days of the event. All other services, deposits are non-refundable within 45 days of event. Total balance payable in full within 14 days of service/event, in order to release the gallery.
​
*What other services can I request? What do you desire is the question? Additional hours for events are $150 p/hr. General opt-in services at additional fee (sub-contracted professionals) include Hair & Make-up Artists, a Second Photographer, a Videographer, Florists, Stylists.
​
*What is the best time of day for an outdoor shoot? Late afternoon is my favourite! Season dependent. Otherwise, early morning. Mid-morning to mid-afternoon sunlight can be quite harsh. We suggest avoiding outdoor shoots from 10am-3pm in warmer months, but there are always options, such as open-shade locations.
​
*Can I download images from my client gallery to my mobile/tablet? Whilst we highly recommend all images are downloaded to a PC/Mac/Desktop device, we understand not everyone has one these days. Galleries are delivered digitally with the ability to download both high-resolution files (very large) and social-media-sized photos. You can download a full gallery in one easy step to a Desktop device, but can only use the single-photo download (at a time) if saving to your mobile/tablet. The social-media size is recommended if you are saving to a mobile/tablet for online sharing only. Pixels and Spice Photography is not held liable for any issue arising from the use of technology on personal devices in an attempt to download, we will, however, assist in trouble-shooting if you are following recommended device download steps.
​
*How long do I have access to my online client gallery, hosted by Pixels and Spice? The delivered gallery is hosted for 3 months. You can download your gallery an unlimited amount of times at all file sizes during this window at no extra cost. A re-hosting fee will be charged if you request an extension beyond 3 months or a re-load if the gallery is already taken down (charge for 1 month of hosting at a time.)
