Should photographers charge a retainer?
Yes, most photographers require a non-refundable retainer (often 25–50%) to hold the date. Use the deposit field so it is shown clearly.
What is the difference between a quote and an estimate?
A quote is a fixed price for a clearly defined job; an estimate is an approximate price that can change. Use a quote when you know exactly what the job involves.
