Policies

This page serves as an archive of Jamie Solorio’s former studio policies, reflecting the professional practices she upheld during her commercial photography era. While she no longer books standard portrait or commercial sessions, the policies remain available as a record of her approach to contracts, scheduling, and client care. Today, her focus is on fine art and experimental projects that align with sustainability and ecological storytelling.

Studio Policies

These studio policies help ensure clarity and comfort for everyone I work with.
Each section below explains how I approach communication, scheduling, and data use in a transparent and respectful way.

Weather Policy

If outdoor conditions are unsafe or would significantly affect image quality, your session will be rescheduled at no additional cost.

Rescheduling may occur if, on the day before your shoot, the forecast predicts unsafe or unsuitable conditions for the day of your session—including any of the following:

  • Outdoor temperatures above 101°F

  • A 20% or higher chance of rain

  • An air quality index (AQI) of 175 or higher

  • Natural disaster or other force majeure events

Weather and air quality information are monitored through the National Weather Service (weather.gov) to ensure decisions are made using trusted and accurate data.

I’ll contact you as early as possible with updated options should any of these conditions arise.
If you’re ever uncertain about the weather before a shoot, please feel free to reach out directly.

Illness Policy

If you or anyone in your household is ill, please reschedule your session. Health and safety come first for both of us and my assistant.

Rescheduling is required if you or anyone in your home is experiencing any of the following within 72 hours of the session:

  • Fever of 100.4°F or higher

  • Cough, sore throat, or nasal congestion not related to allergies

  • Nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea

  • Body aches or fatigue related to illness

  • Rash or open sores

  • Any contagious condition (e.g., flu, COVID-19, strep throat, conjunctivitis)

If I become unwell, I’ll notify you promptly to reschedule. Your comfort and safety are always top priority, and there’s no additional fee for illness-related rescheduling.

Data Collection and Use

My website uses a few tools to help me understand how visitors interact with my work and to stay in touch with those who want updates. Specifically, I use:

  • Meta Pixel (Facebook Pixel) – to understand general trends in visitor engagement and improve how I share my work online.

  • Mailchimp – to manage my email list and send newsletters. If you sign up, your name and email address will be stored securely with Mailchimp.

  • Squarespace Analytics – to view basic, anonymous information about how visitors find and use my site (for example, which pages are most viewed).

These tools may use cookies or similar technologies to collect limited information such as your IP address or browser type.
This data helps me improve my content and communication.
