FEES FOR PORTRAITS are dependent on the selected medium (oil, acrylic, pastel, pencil, or charcoal), size of the
portrait,
number of subjects, and complexity of background and costume.  
  •        Fees listed above are BASE FEES for one subject, unframed with a neutral background unless otherwise
described.  For group portraits add 50% to base fee for each additional subject.  For addition of a favorite pet add
40% to base fee.  For detailed backgrounds or costumes add 30% to base fee.  For fees for larger portraits --
three quarter figure and full length please contact the studio.
  •        The FEE for a portrait is determined by the date of the first sitting, rather than at the time it is scheduled.  A
30% deposit is collected when a portrait is scheduled.  Once the deposit is collected, no other money is usually due until
a portrait is completed to both client's and artist's satisfaction.  Exception to this payment schedule may occur for larger
size portraits and/or for portraits with more than one subject, or for portraits with complex backgrounds.  Payment
plans are available without interest.  Fees are made payable to Edwin. S. McVaugh, Jr.
  •        When a client requests Mr. McVaugh to travel outside of Central Florida, all reasonable traveling expenses
incurred by the artist, to and from that location, will be paid for by the client, including photographic assistance when
deemed necessary by the artist.  The client will be provided with travel expense receipts for items such as fuel, travel
tickets, lodging and or workplace rental, and/or photographic assistance.  Only travel expenses verified by receipt will
be reimbursed by the client.  
  •        Miscellaneous services available at additional costs include:  appropriate framing assistance, nameplates,
picture lights, shipping, delivery, presentation/unveiling ceremonies, and assistance in hanging a portrait.  
*Please note: As of April 2009 there is a small increase in the cost of half figure oil portraits.
GUARANTEE:  Your complete satisfaction is guaranteed or there is no fee.
