This Agreement contains the entire understanding between Montgomery Media Productions, LLC (the “COMPANY”) and the CLIENT. It supersedes all prior and simultaneous agreements between the parties.

2. Reservation
A signed contract and a 50% deposit are required to reserve the dates and times of the PRODUCTION(S). If the PRODUCTION(S) are rescheduled, postponed, or canceled, or if there is a breach of contract by the CLIENT, the deposit is non-refundable.

The CLIENT agrees to confirm the schedule one week prior to the PRODUCTION(S). Notification of any changes in schedule or location must be made in writing to the COMPANY, and confirmation of receipt must be obtained from the COMPANY.
4. Safety
The COMPANY reserves the right to terminate coverage and leave the location if the videographer experiences inappropriate, threatening, hostile, or offensive behavior. If the COMPANY’s equipment is damaged by the CLIENT or their guests, the CLIENT agrees to replace the equipment at full retail value within 24 hours.

The CLIENT and the COMPANY agree that cooperation and punctuality are essential. Shooting begins at the scheduled start time and ends at the scheduled end time. Additional time beyond the scheduled end time will be billed at $180 per hour per videographer.
6. Travel Expenses
All travel expenses are based on the distance between the PRODUCTION location(s) and the COMPANY's business address at 3703 Internet Ave., North Las Vegas, Nevada 89031.

The CLIENT is responsible for any additional costs, such as permits, location fees, or other pre-approved material charges incurred by the COMPANY while performing services for the PRODUCTION(S).
8. Responsibilities
The COMPANY is not responsible for compromised coverage due to causes beyond its control, such as obtrusive guests, lateness, weather, schedule complications, incorrect addresses or times provided, or restrictions at locations. The COMPANY will not be held accountable for missed footage of specific individuals or objects unless explicitly agreed upon in writing.
9. Venue and Location Limitations
The COMPANY is bound by the rules or restrictions of the PRODUCTION location(s), including but not limited to policies regarding access, equipment, or setup.
