Q: Do standard packages include a floor plan?

A: Yes, all standard packages automatically include a 2D floor plan, a marketing kit, and a dedicated website.

Q: Can I book services individually instead of choosing a package?

A: Yes. You can use the a la carte section of the menu to choose services individually, though booking a packaged bundle generally saves you money.

Q: What happens if I have additional square footage but don't add it to the booking?

A: If you do not declare additional spaces during the booking process, the photographer will not scan or photograph those extra areas.

Q: Do I need to be present at the property during the shoot?

A: No. You can provide access instructions, such as a door code, in the booking questionnaire so the photographer can access the property independently.

Q: What happens after I submit my order?

A: Once the order is submitted and the deposit is processed, you will receive a confirmation text and email verifying your scheduled appointment.
