portraits of children
Beautiful photographs of your children, transformed into wall prints, canvasses, and table frames may be the best gift that we can give ourselves, our spouses, and grandparents. Child portraits can be individual, or grouped with other siblings, cousins, or just friends. Taken at different intervals in their lives, these pictures provide us with instant familial gratification and warm our heart. They are enduring reminders of their childhood as well as.
Here is what to expect from our Children's Portraits...
Let's say that you contact us and decide to schedule your children's portrait session. We will schedule an on-location photo session date and time and a deposit (20% of your package cost) is due upon scheduling your session. Our packages are the most cost-effective way to purchase photography and print products.
We offer different packages at a variety of prices to satisfy every customer. Packages represent a great value and a significant savings over a' la carte print pricing. Each of our Photo Package Collections includes a purchasing credit that can be used to towards the purchase of prints, wall art, frames and albums once the photo session is complete. Clients who purchase a Photo Package Collection can place their order for the items of their choosing using our standard Package Price List. Please note that packages do not specifically include prints or digital images. Package descriptions and rates are listed below.
Prior to your children's photo session, we will have a pre-session consultation (either in person or on the phone) and we can plan out our time together based on your ideas and your creative vision. Be prepared for us to not only transform that vision into reality, but also take it to the next level so your session goes from ordinary to extraordinary! Not sure what exactly you are looking for? Don't worry...we can help you define that. At the consultation, we'll discuss best clothing choices, how to prepare for your session and what to expect when you arrive.
Your photo session will last one to two hours at your home or a nearby location of your choice, or we can suggest locations. The exception would be for newborns. We find that for newborns, given all of the moods, naps, and other distractions, sessions generally rune for about three hours. Within two weeks of the photo session, 50 to 80 images will edited and placed in a private password-protected gallery for you to view and place additional print orders if desired. You will be given a link and a password and you may pass this on to friends and family that may want to view or order their own products.
After your session images are posted to your on-line gallery, we will have another consultation with you to discuss your purchasing options, specific images, and to answer any additional question that you might have. A variety of product examples can be seen to help make decisions. Special print rates apply based on your purchase of a package and are valid for two weeks after posting. Digital images are not included in any of the packages, but high-resolution digital images with print release may be ordered through your gallery.
Our packages apply to up to four children. We’ve found that sessions with more than four children to be more complicated endeavors that require more time and attention than our standard session. This approach ensures that we are not rushed and that your photos are exactly how you envisioned. An additional charge of $50 per extra child would be charged for more than four.
If you would like to order print products that will take you beyond the photo credit provided in your package, you are free to do so through your on-line gallery. Products that may be ordered include professional-lab produced prints, metallic prints, canvasses, framed pictures, legacy albums, coffee table books, comp cards, and digital images.
