Licensing for Photos and Media

Welcome to Austin 360 Photography, where we offer professional photography and media services to showcase your property. Our licensing terms are as follows:

1. License to Use Photos and Media: Purchasing photos, video footage, or any other media content from us grants you a license to use these materials for marketing and promoting your property or business. The content itself remains the property of Austin 360 Photography.
2. Non-Transferability of License: The license is exclusive to you and cannot be transferred. If you sell a property, you cannot transfer the photos, videos, or any media content to the new owner. They will need to obtain their own license from us.
3. Prohibited Use of Media Content: Selling, redistributing, or using our media content for profit beyond direct marketing of your property is not allowed. This includes uploading to image or video selling platforms.
4. Separate License for Stakeholders: Other stakeholders requiring use of the media content must purchase their own license. Pricing will be determined on a case-by-case basis.
5. No Sales Tax on Licenses: In Texas, licenses are not subject to sales tax, as the charge is for the right to use the media content.

Appointment and Service Policies

To ensure smooth and efficient service delivery, please note the following policies:

1. Same-Day Cancellation Fee: Confirmed appointments canceled on the same day as the scheduled shoot will incur a minimum cancellation fee of $125.
2. Additional Edit Requests: Requests for additional edits are subject to a fee. Edit requests have a 24-hour turnaround time.
3. Property Access: We require unassisted access to the property. This can be arranged via an unlocked door, Supra, combination lock, key under mat, etc. We recommend that no one be present during the photoshoot for efficiency and safety.
4. Photographing Property As Is: Upon arrival, the property will be photographed in its current state. Please ensure all lights are on, blinds are open, fans are off, and cars are removed from the driveway. The property should be prepped and ready as we will not move or stage items.
