Q & A : photography

Featured in National Geographic Traveler, The Mansion combines history, art and architecture to craft an exhilarating entertainment experience found nowhere else on earth. The Mansion blends the most unique sensory experience, with state-of-the-art technology.

We believe events are made memorable when every detail is addressed and coordinated, from your choice of flowers to how you arrive for your visit. Each moment is special and should reflect you -- to set the tone for your unique, customized event. Our staff’s focused attention to detail is legendary.


Q: What about video and photography? Can you arrange this also?

A: We can, or you can hire you own photographer directly.

Q: How much does a photographer cost?

A: Generally at least $1,000. But depending on what you’re looking for (video and prints, photo album, black and white and color), it could cost much more.

Q: Do I feed my musicians or photographer?

A: That is strictly your option. If you allow the photographer (or musicians) to eat during their breaks, they will be included in your head count, and you will be charged.

Q: Can I use the gardens for or front of the house photographs?

A: No. Photographs outside the front and the back of The Mansion are strictly prohibited. There is a $750 fine for each violation.
