Can I bill a deposit before the shoot?

How do I bill for travel and accommodation?
Add a separate line item for 'Travel & Mileage Reimbursement' so it doesn't dilute your creative fee.

The Notes section is perfect for outlining your photo delivery timelines, print rights, and copyright ownership terms.
