Paying

Half of the fee is due on booking. The other half and the print cost are due when you approve the final proof. You can pay by bank transfer or by card. All prices on this site include VAT.

Cancelling or moving your date

If your date moves, your booking moves with it at no charge when the diary allows. If you cancel before the interview, the deposit is refunded less £50 for administration. After the interview, the deposit covers the work already done.
