FAQ
Photos are delivered within 24-48hrs.
I am happy to assist you whatever your connection is to the property. Our clients range from home owners, real estate agents and brokers, developers, and even AirBnB hosts. We aim to serve any and all clients who could use our photography expertise.
I usually spend between 30-60 minutes on site, with larger properties and special services taking somewhat longer. In order to assure prompt and timely service, the property must be open house ready by the time the photographer is scheduled to arrive.
Services should be ordered as early as possible in order to accommodate your scheduling needs. However, clients should still contact us even with tighter schedules as we strive to work out a solution to any problem.
We encourage all clients to book online for the fastest service at LINK. If a time is not available that doesn’t meet your needs we encourage you to reach out to Ivan at 973-392-4806 for possible accommodations. When ordering, please have the address, size of the property, and any additional requests on hand so we can accurately assess the services and timeframe that would best serve your needs. You may also reach us at 973-392-4806 or email me at ivan@vbiphotography.com

It is up to the client to decide whether the weather poses a sufficient obstacle to a successful shoot. Please contact us promptly with your decision so we make scheduling adjustments. We encourage clients to consider a rescheduling when: Heavy rain is forecasted. If light rain is expected for a drone shoot. Fog is expected owing to the difficulty of altering images to reflect nicer conditions. If snow is forecasted owing to the chance that the snow may negatively affect the property’s visual appeal. Cloudy days are not at all a problem provided no rain/snow is expected. Often, lighting is best on days moderate cloud cover. If for any reason the weather poses a risk to our photographers (such as severe storms, blizzards, hurricanes, etc.) we will reschedule the shoot on our own accord and with no charge to you.
You may reschedule by calling 973-392-4806 or cancel by emailing your request to ivan@vbiphotography.com. But please cancel at least 24 hours in advance to avoid a cancellation fee.
Typically, the entire property and all rooms are photographed. If for some reason you want to ignore or downplay some portions of the property please let your photographer know.
Cancellations owing to inclement weather do not incur a cancellation fee, with all other cancellations requiring 24 hours of notice. Any cancellations made within 24 hours will incur a fee equal to 50% of the total booking fee, including the following instances:
1.An unprepared site for shooting that would require more than 30 minutes of preparation to be readied or the client decides to reschedule. However, no charge will be incurred if another unit on the property is ready to be photographed during the time the photographer is on-site.
2. Transport delays on the part of our client in excess of 30 minutes.
3. Tenants that refuse entry to the photography team.
4. The photographer cannot access the property owing to a mistake on the part of the client to adequately arrange for access.
5. The client is not present for the appointment.
Large features, and/or off-premise amenities are subject to an additional charge. Unless stated otherwise, lifestyle and city photos are not inclusive and should be booked as an add-on.
