Sizes and Cropping

Today I'd like to talk a little about print sizes.  Below I have listed some different sizes and an average cost to print them yourselves.  








4x6 Print








$0.15
5x7 Print$0.99
8x10 Print$3.99
Set of 4 Wallet Prints$1.79
11x14 Print$7.99
16x20 Print$17.99
20x30 Print$22.99


At the top is an example of how different sizes crop.  This is often important when choosing what size you want to print.  I will often choose the size that best fits the image instead of trying to make an image if into a frame that the size may not be as flattering.  You will often notice too that when you have your pictures taken and look at them afterwards there is more room that you would like to see on the top and bottom of the image.  Photographers purposelessly crop loosely to compensate for the way the size of prints crop to ensure there is plenty of room.  The image from the camera is equivalent to a 4x6 cropping and below I will show you when cropping can be problematic and when it can help.




Hope that's helpful!

New CD option


So, I have had a lot people inquire about the new CD option and I was hoping to clarify any questions and also help those whom have already gotten CD's with some idea's on what to do with the images now.  My hopes is to make an affordable option that is also keeping up with our technology world.  Below is the price guide for the CD photo shoot.


It is that simple.  The cost is $100 per hour of photography.  This can be any type of photography as well.  You are then mailed a CD with all the images from the session and are welcome to print them, upload them to your social media and share them with family and friends.  If there are any images from the session you wish to have "touched up", there is a $25 per image fee and those images will be emailed to you with the enhancements.  You are then welcome to print them yourself or have me print them for you at a discounted rate.

It is just that easy!

I will then post blogs on information about printing, size options, products and were you can go to get them printed.

Hope this information is helpful and I would love to hear any feedback.
