Process and Details

There is a project minimum of $250
regardless of quantity. Projects with an estimate over $500 require a 50% retainer to secure it into the studio schedule.

Getting started.

Plan ahead! Due to the amount of time it takes to complete, please reach out about your envelope addressing project weeks in advance. Please note that the following fees are implemented for rush projects.

  • Less than 5 working days: 30% rush fee
  • Less than 3 working days: 60% rush fee
  • Next day turnaround: 100% rush fee
  • Same day turnaround: 150% rush fee

*Any projects that must be completed over a weekend will incur an additional 50% fee.

**If the job is charged the project minimum, the project minimum amount is what will be considered for the rate of the rush fee. E.g. Next day turnaround on a small rush job charged the minimum $250 will be charged a total of $500 (100% rush fee).


Sketches and/or mockups

requested prior to contract signing will be charged $50 each.

Materials.

Please provide a minimum extra 15% in quantity in case of spoilage. Prices assume that the paper stock is suitable for calligraphy and that no additional treatment will be required before writing. If you would like me to provide the paper, a sourcing charge of $50 will apply, in addition to the cost of materials purchased.

List Format.

Complete lists must be provided in a basic text document, with the ability to copy and paste—no spreadsheets. Any editing required on my end to make the list work will be billed at $50 per half hour. Please note that due to the differing etiquette traditions around the world, it is your responsibility to word and format your list as you deem appropriate. Your envelopes will be written exactly as the list you provide.

Delivery.

Clients are responsible for arranging and cost of delivery of items to and from the studio location in New York City. I am able to ship or arrange for messenger services, however the cost will be billed to you.



**Please note that studio rates are subject to change at any time.
