Dear Client, I want to thank you for considering Love Me Kiss Me Photography for your photographic needs. My name is Chasity Hodge, and although I have touched almost all genres of photography, I specialize in beauty and boudoir. I love making women look and feel beautiful. My style is a bit of Coach, some Victoria’s Secret, and of course, CLASS. So many women avoid being photographed; giving the popular excuse “I have to lose some weight.” Usually it’s a low number like 5 or 10 pounds. I’m like “REALLY!” I can pose you in a way that will make you look 5-10 pounds lighter. The clothing that we wear can also make us appear thinner. We can be so hard on ourselves, but we shouldn’t be. I was guilty of this to. No more! I’m a strong and gorgeous woman. I’m not being conceited, I just know that I am FABULOUS just the way I am. I have discovered my SUPERpowers, and you should too! My SUPERpowers are making women of all ages feel beautiful the way they are! I am empowering women!!! I don’t want you to have a model experience. I want you to have a life changing experience. An experience that boost your confidence and opens your eyes for you to see the Real you – A BEAUTIFUL YOU! Once again, thanks for trusting me with your photographic experience and I’m looking forward to meeting you and capturing your memories, rather it be your event, engagement session, family session, high school senior session, beauty/glamor, or boudoir session. In this packet I have included my current session fees and a contract. Please look over it and if you do not see a package that fits your needs, contact me and we will customize a session just for you.

A Boudoir Portrait Party is an event hosted in your home or at a hotel where Love Me Kiss Me Photography will take professional portraits for you and your friends in 20 minute mini-sessions. How do they work? Portrait Parties are hosted by one person, who provides the location, coordinates the guest list, schedules the sessions in 20 minute intervals and collects the fees. A minimum of 6 guests and the hostess is required with a maximum of 10. Please contact me if you have more guests attending. Everyone is not required to stay until the end. Parties can be schedule like private one on one sessions or everyone can be there at the same time and just take turns with their shoot. Homes that have a bedroom that can be used as a boudoir set or nice hotel suites work best for parties. The bedroom area is used as the backdrop, however, if room is available, a backdrop can be set up to provide a different look, but this is not always possible. Each person will receive the following (hostess receives this free) o o

Tips for a Successful Host Have snacks (it keeps the little ones busy who are waiting for their turn). Schedule your guests’ sessions 20 or 30 min apart. Schedule them consecutively so there aren’t any gaps (i.e. 10, 10:20, 10:40, etc). Let your guests know they aren’t required to stay the whole time, but they are required to arrive ahead of time if they need to change clothes or do their make-up. Follow up with your guests with reminders A deposit is required to reserve the date. The balance is due 48 hours before the party. The only monies you are responsible for collecting is the initial fee ($_____/guest). Please let guests know they may pay in cash or check (make payable to Chasity Hodge).

General Terms and Agreement– Revised 06/21/2012 If you want to book a wedding or event, please request a wedding and event contract. As a Photographer I value my clients’ time as well as my own. To better serve everyone please take note of the following policies: Deposit: A deposit is due at time of booking in order to reserve your desired date/time. No session is considered booked without a deposit. Your initial phone or email consultation is complimentary and you are given consultations prior to the shoot if you have paid a deposit. Late Fee / Cancellation Policy: The agreed hourly photographic rate starts at the notated time we have agreed upon. Literally the clock starts running at the time indicated. Allowances are made for unusual or catastrophic weather, personal injury, or acts of God. Tardiness is not considered an act of God. It is usually an act of man. In most horrific events God has been right on time. I understand that certain situations arise. Should you be running late, I will hold your appointment for 15mins provided I hear from you. If you are more than 15mins late your appointment may have to be rescheduled dependent upon my schedule, your session is forfeited and your session fee/deposit is used to cover liquidated damage. Cancellation Policy: I require a minimum of 24 hours’ notice to reschedule or cancel appointments. If you fail to call or show your next visit will incur a minimum of 25% of your missed appointment service. As our hours are “by appointment only” and we have to schedule our own lives and families around each appointment, we must keep a very strict policy on cancellations and rescheduling. Once you have submitted your deposit or the session amount in full, there are no refunds. Session fees are transferable with a 24 hour notice. If you cancel your scheduled session, liquidated damages in the amount of your deposit or session fee will be charged. Session Fee: Your session fee covers the time and talent of the photographer. Unless it is indicated in your package that products are included, then nothing is included except for the sitting and products will have to be purchased separately. Prices & Terms a. All prices shown within the Photographer’s price list are subject to change without prior notice. b. The Photographer reserves the right to amend these Terms and Conditions without prior notice. For shoots, you will be charged the posted pricing at the time of booking. For product, you will be charged the posted pricing at the time we receive your order and payment in full. Accepted Form of Payment: We accept cash, checks, and major credit cards via paypal. Please make checks payable to Chasity Hodge. A $40 fee is required for any returned checks and checks will not be accepted from the client again.
Boudoir Policy: Anyone participating in a boudoir session, marathon, or party must be 18 years of age or older. Photographs with more than one person whether same sex or opposite sex, are limited to glamour style photography only and regular clothing must be worn. Sorry, but we do not do boudoir, glamour or pinup photography for men. Male nudity is NOT permitted. We reserve the right to take revealing or sensual photographs for traditionally married couples only. We keep our photography very classic, so please do not bring sex toys with you – we will not use them in your photographs. Also, implied sex and erotic poses are not allowable at any time. For couples shoots, images are shot female-centric. If we feel uncomfortable due the conduct of the male, we will end the session and all session fees will be forfeited. Alcoholic Beverages: There is a ban of champagne limit at my studio or on location sessions to one glass, you are welcomed to another glass or two after the shoot. Trust me on this one. Women get nervous and over drink very quickly. Eyes become slow and expressions lazy. It’s horrible. This is a one on one very controlled environment and I need to be able to direct, control and connect. Use of Photographs for Promotional Purposes: Images may be used to build Love Me Kiss Me Photography portfolio or to promote Love Me Kiss Me Photography. If you DO NOT want your photographs used for promotional purposes including portfolio (see Copyright and Ownership section), please opt out by submitting notice to us via email at OptOut@lmkmphoto.com before your session, and we will be happy to honor your request! Please understand that if we receive your request after your session, we will still honor your request; however, your photographs may have already been used for promotional purposes, and there could be significant delays in removing photographs from our website, etc., and your assistance may be required in this process. No nude or boudoir images are ever posted without clients’ permission first. Boudoir sessions will be given the option to fill out a model release form. Proofing: Proofs will be delivered in approximately (2) two to (3) three weeks from your session date. You will receive an email with a link and password to your private online portfolio. Due to online storage limitations, your portfolio is live on our proofing site for 30 days. Your portfolio’s expiration date is based on the date the proofing email was sent. It is your responsibility to schedule time to accommodate proofing from your session. We work hard to deliver on time and expect our clients to order in a timely fashion. We try to store images for as long as possible, but we cannot guarantee indefinite archival of images. Therefore we guarantee 6 months of storage. Images not ordered within 6 months of your session may be destroyed if we have not heard anything from you. Should you choose to order at a later date or place another order, your portfolio will be re-activated for a period of (7) seven days, for a small fee of $25. This fee will be used towards your purchase made within that 7 day period. Prices are subject to $7.50 shipping charges and 10% sales tax in the state of Alabama. Arrange to meet with the photographer to pick up orders if you are in the Birmingham area. Orders can now be placed directly through the online gallery, or you may contact the photographer and an invoice will be sent to you to pay online.
