The studio's anchor retainer. $12,000 is due in on August 14th and the retainer renews August 5th — and there's one thing already overdue to them, the revised proposal (−3 days). The August invoice is $2,500 over the monthly retainer, and that checks out: it's the approved photography add-on, named in both the invoice and the review minutes.

Does the invoice match the agreement?

The one piece of arithmetic a reader would otherwise do in their head: the August invoice set beside the monthly retainer it's built on. They agree — the reconciliation is shown, not asserted.
What the agreement says
$9,500 / mo
The monthly retainer, renewing 2026-08-05, scope "photography and print billed as approved add-ons on top of the retainer" — meadowlark-retainer.md.
What the invoice bills
$12,000
$9,500 retainer + $2,500 photography add-on. The $2,500 add-on was approved at the Q3 review (minutes.md) and named on the invoice (INV-2026-107). The $2,500 gap is fully accounted for.
