Welcome to Gametime Photography's FAQ section. We have compiled the most frequently asked questions by parents, coaches, and players.

1. How does Gametime Photography (GTP) work?
We cover area sporting events. Generally, we photograph on location for the entire event. Afterward, we download the photos to our PC and storage server. Next, we choose the best action shots and edit as necessary. Finally, we upload all of the event photos to view and order online.

2. When are the photos avaiable to order?
Depending on the size of the event, photos will be ready for viewing and ordering in 2-5 days.

3. How do I order photos?
GTP has a convenient and secure shopping cart. When you finalize your order, you can choose to pay with your credit card, debit card, or writing and mailing a check. With any of these options, the shopping cart program will email you a copy of the order with a link to an invoice. You can print this for your records.

4. How do I order custom posters?
Select your favorite poster style(s) from the Custom Posters gallery on the ordering page. Any poster style can be used for any sport or event. At the Enhanced and Collage style levels, we will customize posters with your team colors and the information you provide (see “add product detail” at the bottom of the shopping cart page.) Custom poster orders can be purchased and shipped with traditional photos.

5. How do I receive my photos?
When your order is approved and processed, photos will ship via USPS to the address you designate. Shipping and handling charges do apply.

6. How long does it take to receive my photos?
After your order is placed, I am notified immediately and upload the files for printing the same day. They should be in your mailbox within 1-2 weeks depending on your shipping choice. If paying by check, I am not notified of the order until the check clears, which can take several additional days.

7. How long will event photos stay posted online?
We keep events online for 2 years.

8. How are the photos processed?
Your photos are not printed with an ink jet printer! All photos are processed just like film. Your photos are processed at a lab and are guaranteed for 50 years against any fading. This is the best quality print you can receive.

9. Are the prints of high quality?
Photos are taken with a pro-series digital camera with professional quality lenses. They are developed much like film and are printed on high quality paper at a professional photo lab.

10. Will GTP photograph our game?
Yes, Gametime Photography is glad to photograph your event. Please see the “Contact GTP” tab on our home page for more information on how to book your event.

11. How does GTP determine which events they will cover?
Scheduling and opportunity determines much of where we spend our time. Therefore, book your event as soon as you know the dates, times, and location. The more members of your team and league that know of our services the more coverage we can provide. Please help us spread the word.

12. Why did GTP only photograph one game the entire season?
If we shoot one game and no parents are interested in photos, we will not come back. It is a simple matter of supply and demand.

13. Does GTP do posed team or individual photos?
Yes, we will do team and individual photos. There is not session fee, but we do require payment (cash or check) with your orders on the photo date.

14. Does it cost anything to have GTP cover an event?
At this time, we do not charge session fees for team events. We just ask that you let other members of your team and league know that we will be there and maybe we can sell more photos. (We do reserve the right to charge travel cost for out-of-town events.) Most individual session fees include web size digital images. Please e-mail us for more information.
