Do you offer traineeships, mentorships or apprenticeships?
No. We're not financially in a position to be able to take on trainees or apprentices and if or when we do, we want to be able to make it worthwhile and financially beneficial for the participant.
Do you do video?
We do offer videography services, usually via contractors and through collaborations. Rates for videography start at $1500 and has the option of including stills.
How many photos do you take?
It depends. On average, a few hundred in total for events lasting a couple of hours. The final number of photos handed over to a client is likely to be less than this.
OK, so how many photos do I get?
All images taken during our time in attendance at your event or during your shoot.
As previously mentioned, during the editing process, we cull any images that look the same but we don't set limits on the amount of images you'll receive. It's easy enough to edit and process in bulk, so why would we set such limits?
If you feel that you're paying more for our services compared to other service providers - remember that with us, our base photography service rates are purely for our time, not for a certain number of images.
Do you offer payment plans?
On a case by case basis, we can offer flexible payment arrangements - such as paying a deposit (a 50% deposit requirement is already business policy for 5+ hour long photoshoots/events), paying in installments or paying in full before a scheduled photo shoot/event.
For workshop vouchers and anything else that can be purchased through this website, we have the option of checking out with Afterpay.
What’s your editing process?
We shoot RAW, which generally make large batches of images easier to process while giving more leeway to ‘save’ images that may otherwise not be saveable when shooting JPEG.
We're strong proponents of the ethical treatment of images as this ensures their authenticity. That being: ensuring images taken are authentic and not doctored. It also ensures our credibility. For this reason, we don't use AI to modify images either.
Do you license your work?
Yes. Image licensing starts at $75 per image for non commercial usage. Any image that can be seen on this website or that's posted on our social media can be licensed. Get in contact if you wish to license any of our work.
Is the banner image of this page and others on this website yours?
Yes. All images, unless explicitly stated, presented throughout this website are ours.
What are the details of your mutual aid contributions?
As a business, we contribute 10% of all revenue to mutual aid and other grassroots initiatives and causes, with a preference towards established and ongoing groups and longer term campaigns and projects. Most of the organisations and initiatives we contribute to are grassroots, non-funded and entirely driven by volunteers.
In a broad sense, the current approximate breakdown of these contributions made are as follows:
- 50% - Indigenous-led grassroots organisations and initiatives.
- 40% - advocacy, activist and other grassroots causes.
- 10% - individual mutual aid.
There’s no set regular time or roster as to when funds are distributed. For mutual aid, for example, it’s usually the case that someone we know reaches out to us requesting help and we contribute if we have funds available.
We don’t contribute funds to any political party or candidates running for office; nor do we contribute funds to traditional charities.
