Photography at Anne Ellen Christmas Tree Farm
**Please note: We Do NOT Provide Photographers or Props**
Anne Ellen Christmas Tree Farm welcomes photographers and guests looking to use our property as the backdrop for seasonal photography. A valid Photography Permit is REQUIRED to conduct any photo session on the property. Photography Permits must be reserved online in advance and are valid only for the date, time, location, and clients included under the permit. Booking a permit does not provide unrestricted access to the property outside of the reservation purchased. Please Note: We Do NOT Provide Photographers or Props
We Offer 3 Different Photography Permit Options
Farm Photography Permit
Our Farm Photography Permit provides access to the Christmas tree fields during your reserved permit time.
We offer two time-based Farm Photography Permit options:
30-Minute Permit: Allows photography of up to two (2) separate clients during the reserved 30 minutes. MAXIMUM 2 CLIENTS PER 30-MINUTE PERMIT.
1-Hour Permit: Allows photography of up to four (4) separate clients during the reserved hour. MAXIMUM 4 CLIENTS PER 1-HOUR PERMIT.
Photographers may conduct mini sessions and divide their reserved time between clients, provided they remain within both the client maximum and reserved time allowed by their permit. Photographers may also use their entire reserved time with just one client if they choose.
This permit provides access to the Christmas tree fields only. It does not include use of the Truck, Tractor, Firetruck, or The Village.
Truck Photography Permit
Our Truck Photography Permit allows use of our 1930s Ford flatbed truck as the backdrop for your photography session. You may photograph from the front of the truck as well as use the entire bed of the truck to create your setup. The truck is permanently positioned and cannot be moved or turned for photography sessions.
Truck Photography Permits are 30 minutes and allow photography of up to two (2) separate clients during the reserved permit time.
You may use the entire 30 minutes with one client or divide the time between two clients.
This permit provides access to the Truck only. It does not include access to the Farm, Tractor, Firetruck, or The Village.
Tractor Photography Permit
Our Tractor Photography Permit allows use of our tractor setup as the backdrop for your seasonal photography session.
Tractor Photography Permits are 30 minutes and allow photography of up to two (2) separate clients during the reserved permit time.
You may use the entire 30 minutes with one client or divide the time between two clients.
This permit provides access to the Tractor only. It does not include access to the Farm, Truck, Firetruck, or The Village.
Photography Permit Waiver
A valid Photography Permit is REQUIRED for anyone conducting a scheduled photo session on the property.
Your permit is valid only for the date, time, photography area, and clients authorized under your reservation. A Photography Permit is permission to conduct photography on our private property and does not provide unrestricted access to the farm.
Client Limits
Each Photography Permit has a maximum number of separate clients that may be photographed:
-
30-Minute Farm Permit: Maximum 2 clients
-
1-Hour Farm Permit: Maximum 4 clients
-
Truck & Tractor Permits: Maximum 2 clients
One separately scheduled individual, couple, family, or group is considered one client.
Mini sessions ARE permitted! You may divide your reserved time between clients as long as you remain within both the time limit and client limit of your permit.
Waiver Required
After booking, the permit holder will be automatically prompted to complete our Photography Permit Waiver through the booking system. Nothing needs to be downloaded or emailed to us. The person booking the permit is responsible for completing and signing the waiver and providing the required information for EVERY client being photographed. Your completed waiver determines exactly who you are authorized to photograph. If a client is not listed on the waiver, they are NOT included under your Photography Permit and may NOT be photographed on the property.
Why We Require This
Our Photography Permit and waiver requirements are in place for property access, safety, liability, and insurance purposes.
We need to know who is entering the property as part of a photography session and ensure that every photography client on the farm is properly accounted for under a valid permit and completed waiver.
For this reason, client information is required and these limits will be strictly enforced.
No Additional or Unregistered Clients
Photographers may NOT arrive with additional clients, bring additional families or groups onto the property, or rotate unregistered clients through a session. Having time remaining in your reservation does not allow you to photograph additional clients beyond those listed on your waiver or the maximum allowed by your permit. If you intend to photograph a client, they must be included on your waiver before photography takes place.
Check-In Required
All photographers and photography clients must check in before entering the photography areas or beginning a session.
Our staff may verify your Photography Permit and the clients listed on your waiver at check-in and throughout your reserved time. Photography sessions will be actively monitored by farm staff.
Permit Enforcement
Photography outside of your reserved time, in an area not included with your permit, or involving a client who is not listed on your waiver is a violation of your Photography Permit. Anyone conducting photography outside of the terms of their permit may be required to immediately discontinue photography and leave the property.
NO VALID PERMIT = NO PHOTOGRAPHY.
NO CLIENT ON THE WAIVER = NO PHOTOGRAPHY. NO EXCEPTIONS.
