ALL SERVICES:

PLEASE NOTE:
When you purchase a photo package from GreenTree Digital Photography, you are actually purchasing a block of time for our photographer to shoot your home. It is imperative that your home be photo-ready and our photographer is allowed to begin working immediately once they arrive at your property.

Because we shoot multiple homes each day, it is important that your property be photo-ready. In order to service all of our clients in a professional manner, your appointment includes a specific amount of time for your photo session and an estimated number of images. Your home will be shot AS-IS. The property must be photo-ready when we arrive. We do not provide any cleaning, moving, or home staging services. Failure to have your home photo-ready may impact the number of photographs taken. Your appointment includes a specific amount of time for the photo session and an estimated number of images.

SCHEDULING A TEAM MEMBER:
Team member photo shoots are subject to availability. It is highly recommended that the agent be present for the shoot to communicate any special shot requests to the team member.

After your photo session, our photographer will prepare and send an electronic invoice.
