Terms
How pricing, payment, changes and files work, all in one place.
Prices
Every price is fixed and agreed before I start, from the price list or a quote for anything not on it. It only changes if what you ask for changes, and I'll tell you the new number before doing the work. I'm not GST-registered, so the price you see is the price you pay.
Discounts and bundles
Base pieces ordered together save 5% for 3 or 4, and 10% for 5 or more. Add-ons, intricate work and double-sided aren't discounted. Brand bundles are already discounted, so the multi-piece discount doesn't apply to them.
Intricate work
Illustration, custom-drawn elements or a more intricate finish add $50 to $130 a piece, and $150 for a hand-lettered or illustrated logo, only if the work calls for it. Otherwise the base price is the price.
Payment
50% to begin. The balance is due within 7 days of approving the final design, and print-ready files are sent once it's paid.
Timing
Concepts come back within five working days of receiving your content, depending on my workload: two for most pieces, three for logos and bundles. If I haven't heard from you in 30 days, the project pauses and picks up again when you're ready, as soon as I have a slot. After 90 days it's closed, and the 50% covers the work done.
Changes
Two rounds of changes are included. Further rounds are $75 each.
Files and ownership
You get print-ready PDF, plus PNG and JPG for screen; source files on request. You own the artwork outright: no licence, no ongoing fee. Once your work is out in the world, I may show it in my portfolio and on social media. If you'd rather I didn't, just say.
Printing
I don't print, but I can arrange it through a commercial print contact, quoted separately. Or take the files anywhere: they're built to go.
If a project stops
If you cancel before I start, the 50% is refunded in full. Once work has started, it covers the time spent and isn't refunded, and you won't owe the balance. Unused concepts stay with me.

Not sure what you need?
Tell me what the business is and where the work has to sit — a menu, a label, a phone screen — and I'll tell you what I'd do and what it costs. No obligation. A straight answer, not a sales call.
