Regardless of whether a photographer is being paid for photos or not, a reservation and a site fee are required. Because we are a private property and a business (and not a public park or national forest), we require a site fee for photography sessions. Our goal is to keep the farm special, and we work carefully with photographers to ensure that they meet their clients' goals, including providing detailed maps and consultations. If the photo sessions occur during the farm’s public hours, farm visitors may be present, and while we’ll do our best to guide you to quieter photo spots, we cannot always restrict visitor access.
Full site fee applies even if photographer spends less than the contracted time on the property.
Payment is due immediately to reserve your date. Payment is nonrefundable. In the event of inclement weather, we are happy to reschedule.
It is the photographer’s responsibility to determine his or her own fees and to book their own clients.
The farm is expansive with plenty of beautiful areas for photography, but if you need access to indoor amenities, we recommend that you schedule your photo session(s) during the farm's regular hours.
All clients will still need to pay the daily Farm Pass rate to enter the orchard. They will be provided with a picking bag and are welcome to join us on the farm for the day after your photo session has ended.
All photographers working on-site must provide a certificate of liability insurance
with Riamede Farm as named certificate holder.
