We had a pretty awesome Christmas and I took some time off while the kids were off school. Now that the new year is here, I'm ready to make a few changes in the business.
The first change is to my wedding pricing. Instead of having tons of different options, I've streamlined it down to just one package that includes everything most brides want: all day coverage for the wedding day, edited images on DVD with printing rights, an online gallery to share with family and friends, an album, and an engagement session. Choosing a wedding photographer is hard enough without spending hours trying to choose which package to go with. For more information about weddings, click here.
The second change is I'm adding more options for products. This year, all Short and Sweet Sessions will include a full set of 5x7 prints from the session, in addition to the digital files. Storyteller Sessions will include the digital files plus your choice of a 16x20 gallery-wrap canvas, an 8x8 custom-designed album, or a set of 5x7 prints in a custom keepsake box. Check out the photos below to see what the box is like. Each one is custom-designed with your choice of colors and images. I ordered this one for myself and I just love it! If you decide to put your prints in frames or albums, the box is also great for storing small keepsakes or other photos. For current pricing, click here, or for more session information, click here.
The third change is that I will be spending more time consulting with clients before the session to make sure each session is perfectly customized for each client. When you book a session with me, I'll send you an email questionnaire, and once I get that back from you we'll set up a time to go over everything either over the phone or in person before the session. I want to make sure you LOVE your images, and that starts with the planning and preparations. Also, be on the lookout for a blog series on how to plan your session. I should have the first one up next week.
The last change I'm making is quitting mini sessions. In the past, I've set aside a day for them in the spring and again in the fall, with various results. The reason for quitting those is just that it doesn't really mesh well with what I do. I work best when we can take our time and I can really get to know you and your family and what makes you unique so I can capture that in your photographs.
The one thing that will not be changing for 2013 is the passion I have for photographing families and weddings. I love capturing the little moments and big moments, the details and expressions, the laughs and giggles, and the bond between loved ones. I can't wait to meet the families I'll be photographing this year!
