Payment is non-refundable in the event of cancellation.
If Wildwood cancels due to inclement weather, every effort will be made to help you reschedule to another available slot. If none are available, your fee will be refunded.
Photographers and their clients will be required to sign a waiver of liability form and turn it in or fill one out upon arrival.
BOOKING DETAILS
Booking is in one-hour time slots. This means you will have to book a whole hour even if you only need a 30-minute session.
Please include your set-up and tear-down times in the amount of hours you schedule, especially if you are bringing props.
If you need time to scope out the area you would like to work in before your clients arrive, please schedule your client’s arrival for a later time than your scheduled appointment time, as you gain access to the farm at the time of your scheduled appointment. Not before.

PHOTOGRAPHY FAQ
Q. Is it ok if I take photos of my family as we cut down our Christmas Tree?
A. Yes! Personal family photos are always allowed, as those are important memories. But, if you are hiring/bringing a photographer to take those photos of your family, then that would fall into the category of “photographers with clients” and would require booking and the photography fee.
Q. Can we bring our dog for photos? He’s a part of the family too.
A. Sadly, even though we understand that our furry friends are a part of the family, we cannot allow them unless they are a fully trained service animal.
Please be aware that we cannot allow dogs or other animals unless they are fully trained service animals.
**We do not provide a photographer. This booking system is intended for photographers who wish to bring their own clients.
