Most Commonly Asked Questions Engagement/Signature Portraits Philip Kent offers various options for engagement portraits in our studio or your favorite location. Color or black & white, for newspapers or for matting and/or display at the reception (a “signature board”), a nice engagement portrait will be treasured by all. Portraits in the Washington Post with a “by-line” are no charge. Mileage We do not charge for mileage to events within a reasonable distance of Northern Virginia and the DC metro area. What is a reasonable distance? Anywhere less than an hour’s drive from Tysons Corner. Examples would be Leesburg, Warrenton, or anywhere in Montgomery or PG counties. Events an hour or more away would be charged $30 for mileage. Examples are Baltimore, Annapolis, Fredericksburg. Events 2 hours away are $60 for mileage, such as Richmond, Charlottesville or Maryland’s Eastern Shore. Turnaround Times Fast! Usually a week or less after your wedding, the photographs are printed or ready for posting online. Philip Kent will show you layout options for your album, provide order forms and set up a date at your convenience to place the order, about a month or so later. Our ordering procedures are very efficient. If you have a special need or situation, we’ll do our best to accommodate you. Four weeks is the normal turnaround time for matted albums, 8 weeks for digitally designed. Final payment is not due until order is completed. Price Guarantee All prices in this pamphlet are guaranteed through completion of your order. Photographs may be reordered years after the wedding.
Week before Wedding We will give you a final confirmation call the Monday or Tuesday before the wedding to confirm times, itinerary, and requests for your wedding day. Feel free to call us anytime before that with updates or questions. Cancellations We are often reserved months in advance and frequently turn down weddings for various dates. In the rare event a wedding is cancelled, we will refund 50% of any deposit with 6 months notice or 25% with 3 months notice. We cannot give a refund with less than 3 months notice. If your wedding date is changed and rescheduled with us, we will give every consideration to your particular situation, assuming availability. We give special consideration to members of the military when at all possible. Video We have offered a very attractive Wedding Video Package for many years. Our video coverage is very professional and unobtrusive. Information is on a separate flyer in your presentation folder. See a sample! Need other Wedding Professionals?
