We've had our portrait taken--Now what??!

It seems overwhelming when you see the portraits of your family!  "I want them all!"  is something I hear a lot!  "What should I do with them?!"  I'm here to help...

We've probably already chatted about your ideas for using your portraits--the wall you have in mind, the album for the coffee table, the portraits for your child's room.  I may have even asked you to send me a quick photograph and the dimensions of the wall spaces you are considering for your wall portraits.

Once we take your portraits, I'll have paper proofs printed for you.  Yes, paper proofs.  Yes, you'll have actual photographs to touch and gaze at.  Yes, you'll be able to hold them in your hands and see every detail.
Once we've narrowed down your selections, I'll show you samples of the some of the product options we've already talked about and perhaps even a few that you hadn't thought of.  Canvas prints, metal prints, float mounted prints, albums, mini albums...I'll help you choose what will work best for your images.

If we're going to create a wall portrait grouping, I'll start by sketching out a design for your wall.
If I asked you to take a photograph of the wall that you are considering for portraits, I'll create a wall portrait image so you can actually see what the portraits will look like on your wall.  (It's like magic, right?!)
If we're creating an album, we'll pick the images to include and then back at my office, I'll design the cover and populate the inside pages using all of your favorite images. 
Once we've decided on the perfect way to display your portraits, I'll go back to my office and begin finalizing your portraits.  Once perfected, I'll send them to my professional photo lab.

I await your finished portraits almost as eagerly as you do--I love delivery days at the office!  Sometimes I'll even text you a picture to let you know they are here!
And if you need help hanging your portraits, I'm always available.  
So let's get going and create that portrait you've always dreamed about!
