Travel fee applies, if the client is further than 30 miles from us. All artists are located in different cities, so the quote is individually calculated

Trial is recommended

We are professionals that know what looks great on photos, it's a lot of experience and there is no "one for all" solution, it's all custom

30 min to 1 hr; we are leaving the party after we are done unless other arrangement is booked
