Booking & Payment

How does the booking process work?

1. Brief — tell us what you need: service, location and preferred date. Standard packages show published starting prices; custom productions receive a tailored quote within one business day. 2. Book — secure your date with 100% payment through our payment portal, which accepts all major payment methods plus Affirm, Afterpay and Klarna. 3. Shoot — your crew captures everything exactly as outlined in your production brief, with all details confirmed in advance. 4. Delivery — edited files arrive through a secure online gallery, ready to use.

Can I get an instant quote?

Standard services have published starting prices right on our pricing page — no waiting. For larger or multi-location productions, submit a quote request and we respond within one business day; for complex projects we may schedule a quick call to confirm details first.

Are your prices fixed or customizable?

Both. Standard packages carry published starting prices so you know the number before you ever contact us. Larger productions — brand films, multi-location campaigns, annual media plans — are scoped and quoted to your brief.

What is your refund and rescheduling policy?

You can reschedule once at no cost if requested at least 48 hours before the shoot, subject to crew availability. Changes or cancellations within 48 hours are non-refundable, as crew time has already been committed. No-shows are charged the full booking amount.

What happens if my event is cancelled or postponed?

Cancellations within 48 hours of the shoot are non-refundable. If your event is postponed, we apply your payment to a future date, subject to availability — we would rather move your production than lose it.

Can I review the materials before delivery?

You're involved throughout: your production brief drives the shoot, preview selects are shared within 24 hours when appropriate, and edits are matched to your instructions. Final files are released through your delivery gallery once production is complete.

Coverage & Crew

What is Virginia Business Visuals?

A managed regional media service — one production partner for photography and video across Central Virginia, powered by 360ism Studios and 20+ years of production experience. You book the company's process and standard, not one freelancer's availability: we handle scheduling, crew, editing, quality control and delivery end to end.

Where are you available?

Throughout the Fredericksburg–Richmond corridor and beyond: Richmond, Henrico, Short Pump, Hanover, Ashland, Caroline County, Fredericksburg, Spotsylvania, Stafford, Quantico, Charlottesville and Culpeper. Projects in Washington D.C., Williamsburg and Hampton Roads are welcome by custom quote.

What types of shoots do you cover?

Corporate headshots, business content photography, event photography and videography, vertical social content, promotional and brand films, training and recruiting video, nonprofit storytelling, and product, food and facility photography. See the full menu on our photography and video pages.

Who will be my photographer or videographer?

Our production team assigns the best available crew for your location, style and brief. Every professional is vetted for identity, experience, insurance and portfolio, and works to our capture standards, shot lists and equipment minimums — so results stay brand-safe and consistent no matter who is behind the camera.

What if the photographer cannot make it last minute?

Your date is still covered. Replacement coverage is built into our model: if an assigned crew member becomes unavailable, we assign a vetted replacement working from the same production brief and standards — you don't restart the search or lose the booking.

What equipment do you use?

Professional-grade cameras, lenses, lighting and audio from brands like Canon, Sony and DJI, with 4K-capable video packages. The exact kit is matched to your project, and drone coverage is available through a properly licensed partner.

Do you provide studios or only on-location shoots?

Both. We shoot on location anywhere in our service area, and our Richmond production studio at 1108 E. Main St supports headshot days, interviews, podcasts, green-screen work and controlled review sessions.

Can you handle shoots in multiple locations?

Yes — that's the point of the corridor model. Multi-office organizations get one brief, one point of contact and identical standards in Richmond, Fredericksburg, Charlottesville and everywhere between. Locations beyond our service area are coordinated by custom quote.

Can you provide livestreaming or hybrid event coverage?

Yes. Livestreaming and hybrid event setups can be arranged with advance notice — include it in your brief or quote request so we can scope connectivity, switching and crew.

Can you provide behind-the-scenes or social content during the shoot?

Yes. Note it in your production brief and we'll build it into the plan — additional crew where needed, plus quick-turnaround vertical content options for posting while the event is still live.

Delivery & Editing

How soon will I receive my photos and videos?

Preview selects within 24 hours when appropriate. Final photography within three business days — or add 24–48-hour expedited delivery. Short-form video arrives in five to seven business days; larger productions get a first edit within 10–15 business days.

How do you share deliverables?

Through a secure online delivery gallery — easy to view, download and share with your team. Extended archive storage is available as an add-on.

Are edits included in the quote?

Yes — professional editing is included in every package; you never receive unedited files as your deliverable. Advanced work such as animation, detailed retouching or additional versions can be added at an extra cost. RAW files are excluded unless separately purchased.

What if I need revisions?

You can request up to three rounds of revisions on edited content to match your brief. Additional changes outside the agreed scope may incur extra charges.

Who owns the photos and videos after delivery?

Once full payment is received, you have complete usage rights for commercial, internal and marketing purposes. By default we may feature selected work in our portfolio or marketing materials unless you opt out in writing — just tell us.

Do you offer ongoing editing or retainer options?

Yes. Our Monthly Content Plans ($995–$3,250/month) deliver fresh photography and video every month, and many clients retain us for ongoing production, editing and campaign support.

Can we earn revenue by partnering with you?

Yes. Our Agency Partner Program gives web designers, marketing agencies and PR firms white-label production at fixed wholesale rates — you keep the client relationship and the margin, we produce the media. Ask about partnership.
