    How long are the straps? top

    The patterned section is 24 inches (62 cm) long and 2.75 inches (7 cm) wide plus 12 inches (30 cm) of webbing on each side. Some straps can be made longer (typically 56 inches/142 cm). If this option is available, it will be listed at the bottom of the page and you select it when you add the product to your shopping cart.

    Where are the straps made? top

    I personally hand make all the straps in my smoke-free home studio located near Vancouver in British Columbia, Canada.

    Can I wash my camera strap? top

    I recommend spot washing with a damp cloth, not machine washing. If your strap loses its shape, you can press it with your iron on the polyester setting (all straps were ironed before shipment).

    Do you do custom orders? top

    Yes, we make custom orders. Send an email to Customer Service with your ideas and we'll reply with a quote.

    Can you add pockets? top

    Yes, but the order is then considered a custom order; pricing varies according to the size and complexity. If you would like a quote, email me the details and I'll reply with a no obligation quote.

    Can you add embroidery? top

    Adding embroidery is considered a custom design and increases the cost of the strap.

    In general, I don't recommend embroidering directly onto the straps since the text
    tends to get lost in the pattern (that's why I don't list it as a standard
    option) and embroidery also tends to wear faster than the rest of the strap since the embroidery threads sit higher than the rest of the strap surface.

    If you wish to add embroidery, I recommend embroidering on a patch and attaching the patch to the strap. Straps with simple patterns can be embroidered onto directly.

    Since I don't have my own embroidery machine, I outsource the embroidery to an embroidery shop. Most shops charge a minimum of $15 - 20 to digitize and prepare the job. Contact me with details if you're interested and I'll obtain a no obligation quote for you.

    Note: if you have an embroidery machine or access to one, you could also prepare your own patch and mail it to me to be sewn directly on your strap during assembly. If you're interested in this option, please contact me first so we can discuss your idea and make sure the design will fit on the strap.

    What forms of payment do you take? top

    We take all types of credit cards through PayPal. You do not need to set up a PayPal account to pay with PayPal.

    If you are from Canada and would like to pay in Canadian dollars, please contact Customer Service and we can send you an invoice in Canadian dollars.

    Changing or cancelling an order top

    However, if your order has already shipped, we can't process your cancellation request. In this case, please send your order back to us for a refund.  You will be responsible for any return shipping fees.

    If you wish to make a change to your order please contact Customer Service. Your original order will be cancelled and refunded to allow you to place a new one.

    Can I order by phone? top

    In short, no. We are not set up to take phone orders. Orders must be received through the online shopping cart. We will happily answer questions by email (info@mycameracouture.com)

    What does "out of stock" mean? top

    If a product you like is shown online and shows as out of stock, it is in the process of being manufactured. This can take days (if the materials are on hand) or weeks (if materials have to be re-ordered). The store doesn't offer a way to post estimated re-stocking dates so please feel free to send an email to Julia at info@mycameracouture.com asking when it will be available. Note that any products not listed in store are discontinued.

    Has the product been discontinued? top

    Discontinued products are removed from the site and not listed as "out of stock".  So, if you see the product on the site, it is NOT discontinued.

    Do you have a printed catalogue? top

    Since we are continuously updating our product line, we do not offer a printed catalog. Everything we carry is available on our site.
