Studio News

Good Morning Bloggers! Hope you are looking forward to a few warm days, I know I am! Well, it is almost spring around here and we have already had our cut off for 2009 seniors, so I thought it was a great time to make some changes around here. A little spring cleaning of sorts.

Beginning May 1st, all new sessions (excluding seniors and boudoir) booked after today, March 16th will be subject to this change. Those of you who have sessions already booked (excluding seniors and boudoir) are going to be able to take advantage of this offer if you so choose.

Beginning May 1st, Family, Children, Maternity, Newborn and Tween sessions will have the option to purchase a CD package. The CD package is $325 and includes a custom portrait session here at the studio with indoor and outdoor shooting options, a minimum of 20 edited portraits on a CD, and a 5x7 spiral bound proof book showcasing your portraits. A $100 deposit will be required to hold your date and the remainder, $225 will be due the day of your session.

We also have a 5x5 high end fabric covered album that will be showcased in another CD package. As most of you know, the spiral bound proof books are not printed with the intention of lasting forever. It should be used as a brag book to show your friends and family and to aide you in making your portrait choices. The album mentioned above will contain portraits printed on professional papers and lustre coated for protection. This album will be around for many many years. The cost of this album is $550, with a $100 deposit required to hold your session date. We have several on hand here at the studio, so if you are interested and would like to see a sample, just say the word!

As noted above, boudoir and senior sessions will continue to be able to purchase products via our a la carte and collections pricing. We will also continue to offer large prints (11x14 and larger), canvases, storyboards and collages, announcements and invitations, and other custom items through the studio.

Some of you may be reading this and say, what if I don't want the CD? I have decided to allow my current a la carte pricing to be available to my clients who just don't want the hassle of ordering your own prints. To do this, I am going to begin requiring a portrait deposit in addition to the session fee. So, beginning May 1, you will be required to place a $150 print deposit, in addition to the session fee. $100 will be required to hold your session date.

Thank you for your continued support and friendship. We have met so many wonderful families through the studio and we truly enjoy providing you with portraits that make you proud. Our passion strives on providing one of a kind sessions, so if you have an idea, let us know! We would love to help you bring it to print! Looking for something different and fun, look no further, you have found the photographer for YOU!
