ESTIMATE / INVOICE FORM
These forms are suggested for use by APA members and others in the advertising community including agencies
and clients. They are the result of input from all APA Chapters across the country. The first page of the
Estimate/invoice form is a summary of the basic categories that will accommodate a large majority of
assignments. Additional information on the use of these forms is available in the APA “Estimating Guide" available
online. These forms allow customization of billable items to better suit individual photographer's needs. The
Estimate/invoice form must be used in conjunction with APA's Terms and Conditions to improve communication in
the estimating and invoicing process.
Estimate/Invoice Form
This form describes and summatizes the job assignment and establishes the price, terms and conditions, and
rights to be licensed. If used as an Estimate, the client must sign to indicate acceptance. When used as an
Invoice, its this document that confers licensing rights and therefore must be signed by the photographer.
Worksheets
The 4-page worksheets serve as both a checklist and @ detailed explanation of the charges found on the
Estimateyinvoice Form and is a valuable tool for APA Members. It may or may not be submitted with the Estimate
and Invoice Forms, Please note that photographers name, address, and/or studio name and logo should be
present on all documents to avold any confusion during presentation and/or biting
Job Change Confirmation
This document is used to confirm changes that might alter the cost ofthe job assignment after the estimate has
been signed. The job change should be noted and signed by a representative of the agency or client before the
additional described services are performed.
Important Suggestions For Using All Forms
1, Ablank area has been left at the top of the form for photographer's name, address, andlor logo. These forms
have been re-formatted in Arial font so you can easily cut and paste them into Word. If necessary, clear tabs
and reset two decimal point tabs: at § and 6 inches. When having your forms printed, include your tax |.D.
2. You should read the terms and conditions on the reverse to see if they are appropriate for you. APA
recommends that your lawyer review and verify that they are correct for you and your state of business.
3. When faxing an estimate, the Terms and Conditions should always be included with Estimate and Invoice
Forms. This gives the photographer certain legal rights under the Uniform Business Code in most states,
4, Please note in some states, certain items are non taxable. Please review the use of this line with your lawyer or
accountant.
6. Always have your Estimate signed, and always sign your Invoice,Q ESTIMATE Q INVOICE #
