Truly one of a kind!

This contract is AMAZING for adventure elopements! There truly isn't anything out there like it and it's so comprehensive of what elopement photographers need especially when working out in the wilderness. The Leave no trace, permits, and outdoor safety and liability clauses alone make this contract worth it! It's so easy to understand and then explain to clients as well - no hard to read legal jargon. This contract is a foundational piece of my business now and I use it every single day with my clients. I now coach other elopement photographers and recommend Paige's contract to them as well because there's no one else I trust more with contracts than The Legal Paige.
