1. Who We Are

MPJ Creative (“we,” “our,” “us”) is a sole proprietorship based in Richmond, Virginia, providing headshot, branding, and event photography services throughout the U.S.

You can contact us anytime at pj@mpjcreative.com.

2. Services

We provide:

  • Individual and team headshot photography

  • On-site headshot booths for conferences and events

  • Branding and commercial photography for businesses and creative teams

Each project is quoted individually based on your specific needs, scope, and travel requirements. No work is considered booked or confirmed until both parties agree to the terms of a written proposal or invoice sent by MPJ Creative.

3. Quotes and Proposals

When you request a quote through our website, we’ll review your details and respond within one business day with a custom proposal.
All pricing and availability are subject to change until confirmed in writing. Quotes are valid for a limited time and do not constitute a binding agreement until accepted and scheduled.

4. Payments

All payments and deposits are handled offsite, via invoice or secure payment link provided by MPJ Creative.
Payment terms and any deposit requirements will be clearly stated in your proposal or invoice. Once confirmed, your date is reserved exclusively for you.

5. Delivery and Turnaround

Final edited images are typically delivered within 30 days of your session or event unless otherwise stated in your proposal. Delivery times may vary depending on project size, schedule, or technical factors.

We make every effort to communicate timelines and updates clearly.

6. Image Rights and Usage

  • Use select images for portfolio, marketing, and promotional purposes, including social media, advertising, and the website.

  • Decline requests that involve editing, filters, or alterations that misrepresent our work.

If you wish to restrict usage (e.g., for privacy reasons), please request that in writing before or during your session.

7. Cancellations and Rescheduling

Cancellations or reschedules should be requested in writing. Any deposits, if applicable, may be subject to forfeiture or transfer depending on notice given and event timing.
We’ll always do our best to accommodate changes within reason.
