Free Portrait Photographer
Service Agreement
Stop sending high-resolution galleries and praying for a payment notification that never comes.
Pro Contractor Tip
Ensure your contracts explicitly state that the license to use or reproduce images is only granted upon receipt of payment in full, keeping the copyright firmly in your hands until the transaction is complete.
Why use a written agreement?
Handshake deals are risky. As a Portrait Photographer, "scope creep" is your biggest enemy. A clear agreement ensures everyone agrees on the deliverables before money changes hands.

Frequently Asked Questions
How can I prevent clients from just taking screenshots of their proofing gallery?
An automated digital escrow system applies high-visibility, dynamic watermarks over your images and disables right-click saving, ensuring the client must complete their payment to receive a clean, high-resolution version.
I'm tired of the manual 'wait for transfer, then email link' workflow; can this be automated?
Yes, digital escrow platforms handle the entire transaction for you. Once the client pays the invoice, the system automatically removes the watermarks and sends the final download link instantly, 24/7.
How do I ensure the client feels safe paying before they have the final files?
The system acts as a neutral third party that holds the high-res assets in 'lockdown.' The client can see a watermarked preview of the work they are buying, and the system guarantees the release of those specific files the moment the payment is processed.
