This is an explanation of our booking policy, effective April 9th, 2012:

• We do not guarantee the receipt of all text messages to the Andrew’s mobile phone. To inquire about studio availability please email: info@redbirdstudionyc.com 
• Clients can place available time on “Hold” status for up to 48 hours without a deposit. 
• A $40 deposit is required to “Confirm” a studio availability for a session. This can be paid via: http://booking.redbirdstudionyc.com 
• We have a generous 24-hour cancellation policy.  If clients cancel or postpone a Confirmed session with less than 24 hours notice, they will owe a $40 cancellation fee. In such instances the deposit will be retained as the cancellation fee, or the clients will be billed $40 (if a deposit had not been made in advance).  
• These policies are structured to help provide the best value and service for all of our clients.
