Gallery link and download codes were sent on Oct 26. ## How do I create a photography invoice? - **The shoot**: date, place and what it was. - **The session fee** on its own line, so the client sees what your time cost. - **Final images** counted, like 14 at $45, or a package at quantity 1. - **Extras** on their own lines: rush delivery, prints, travel. - **The usage license**, in the notes. ## Write the usage license in plain words Say who may use the photos, where, for how long, and what needs permission. It answers later questions, like “Can we put it on a billboard?” In the US, the photographer owns the copyright unless they took the photos as the client's employee or signed it over in writing. This is not legal advice. ## How do I bill a booking fee? On its own invoice, as Invoice Maker has no deposit line. Bill the rest after the shoot. ## Make it on your iPhone with Invoice Maker - Session fee, images and prints on separate lines - Your license wording prints on the PDF - Quote the shoot, then invoice in one tap Download Invoice Maker on the App Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/invoice-maker-estimates-app/id6815655785 Free to download, with in-app purchases.
