Is Minbun Studios only based in New York City?

Minbun Studios is proudly based in New York City, where we conduct the majority of our filming work. However, we are open to filming outside the city in areas such as New Jersey and other parts of the Tri-State Area.

If you’re looking to schedule a shoot outside of NYC, please send a direct message or email. Travel-based bookings may include additional fees depending on the distance and logistics. We’re happy to coordinate and travel for your creative project.

Can we reschedule or cancel our booking?

Yes — life happens, and we aim to be flexible. Here’s how our scheduling and cancellation policy works:

Rescheduling is allowed at no extra cost anytime before the session ends and full payment is due. Please inform us as early as possible.
Cancellations made more than 48 hours in advance will not incur any fee.
Cancellations made within 24–48 hours of your session will result in a 50% charge of the agreed cover fee.
Same-day cancellations or no-shows may be charged in full, unless due to verified emergencies.

Please communicate any schedule changes as early as possible — we’re happy to work with you when given proper notice.

After 48 hours, a 20% late fee will be applied to the total invoice.
After 72 hours, an additional 5% late fee will accrue daily until payment is received in full.
After 7 days of non-payment, legal action will be initiated to recover the owed amount, including all accumulated fees and legal costs.

We encourage all clients to make timely payments to avoid delays and penalties. If there are any payment issues, contact us immediately so we can make necessary arrangements.
