- Use the contact form on my website and request an appointment. If you prefer to do things the old fashioned way, you can also call, text or email me. All of the relevant contact information is located on the contact page.
- After the session, I will prepare the photos for you to make your selection (the photos are not edited in detail yet). This will usually take 1-2 days. I will inform you before, if it will take longer. After you selected the photos that you want to purchase I will edit all details. This will take another 1-2 days.
The amount of time it takes to do property photography, whether it is a home or a commercial building, varies. Moreover, the number one most important factor is the property’s size. Meanwhile, we can discuss the time required for your photoshoot at the time you book it.
Your photos will be sent to your email/messenger/What’s App and delivered digitally via a Dropbox link. I will optimize your images for online uses and basic print solutions.
- The downloadable link has an expiry date of 14 days. If you need more time, please advise me.

As long as it is not raining, I will still shoot! If it is overcast outside, I can still shoot the interior and exterior. If it has been raining and I don’t think exterior shots will turn out well, we can figure out, if there is another opportunity to shoot the exterior. In the case of high winds, thunderstorms, or other hazardous conditions, the photographer reserves the right to determine if proceeding with the shoot is possible (flying drone..). Client must call one (1) hour ahead to discuss current weather conditions and if negative weather could impact the photoshoot they may reschedule. In the case the photographer needs to return in order to finish the assignment, the client will be responsible for the additional expenses. The weather policy does not cover rescheduling or cancelling under 24 hours due to cloudy weather or lack of sun (rain must be present in order for the fee to be waived).
- I don’t work with or have access to professional models at this time. If you would like lifestyle images with people in them, you are responsible for coordinating with the models.
Tanja Mikolcic Photography will make every effort to ensure the final images are of high quality and represent the property in the best way. Sometimes however, a client may feel these images do not meet those expectations. In this case, Tanja Mikolcic Photography will work closely with the agent/homeowner to correct the issue and photos. A reasonable amount of re-editing will be performed at no additional cost. Everyone has a different idea of their “best photo” but prior to hiring Tanja Mikolcic Photography, please carefully review the portfolio on www.instagram.com/tanja.mikolcic as there will be no refunds issued to clients who are not happy with the “style” of photography. “Style” refers to image angles, color, and any other visual aspect of the photo.
- Due to the unique and custom nature of the service and products offered, no refunds are available once images have been approved and delivered.
The neater and cleaner your home or business is, the better it will photograph. Always start with a good cleaning. But to help homeowners, realtors and agents to prepare for the photo session, I have prepared a check list of things you can do to really make the home photo ready.
Please follow the instructions in my „Preparation Checklist“. If user/agent is not present Tanja Mikolcic Photography will shoot “as is” and will not take responsibility for clutter or unwanted items in the picture.
If the property is not ready to be photographed you should make every effort to reschedule at least 24 hours prior to the shoot. Tanja Mikolcic is not responsible for cleaning, decluttering, or landscaping. For hygiene reasons, I don’t move anything in the bathrooms.
Yes, I retain the copyrights as is standard practice in the photography industry. You purchase a a single use, non-transferable, non-exclusive image license. For real estate agents that image license is good for the duration of your listing and expires once the listing is sold, canceled or reassigned to another agent. For all others the license does not expire.
This is a non-transferable license, meaning you, as the licensee, may not sell, give or loan the photos to any other party. You do have wide leverage to use them for your marketing and promotional needs however. Tanja Mikolcic Photography may use any photos for inclusion in an online portfolio, website, or other advertising.
Once photos have been delivered, the agent and/or homeowner may not make any digital alterations, editing, or “photoshopping” to the photos unless to crop the images. If there is an issue or concern with editing or photos please contact Tanja Mikolcic Photography, but do not make alterations as this is a violation of copyright. Tanja Mikolcic Photography retains all rights to every photo and therefore these shots are stock images.
Client may use the images & video provided to market and advertise their brand and products in any print or digital medium. Tanja Mikolcic Photography must be made aware, credited, and compensated for any printed or digital publication/use where photos are not being used for the direct marketing of the sale or rental of the property. Agents/clients may not sell, transfer, or gift any images for any reason to any third party. These third parties also include sellers, builders, stagers, models and any other contractors associated with the property or agent. Image licenses are non-transferable. Tanja Mikolcic Photography reserves the right to re-license the photos. License is non-exclusive to Client.
