Viewing and Purchasing
Your Family Portraits
A single projection preview session will be scheduled about a week after your photography for viewing your selections. Your purchasing decision will be made at that appointment, so be sure to bring your family and any other decision makers. Mark will guide you to the appropriate design and framing to complement your art piece. Fees will be assessed for additional preview sessions and orders placed thereafter. Prices are subject to change at any time.
Investment
Your portrait session is $200, which includes the photographer’s time, talent, travel within Whatcom County, and materials. You can invest as much or as little as you would like in prints, from large wall portraits down to desktop-size prints. Wall portraits are a lifetime investment in your family’s memories, an important focal point in your home. Most families end up investing about $1500 in their portraits.
Retouching
Our portraits include basic retouching to minimize blemishes and correct many eyeglass reflections. We take a subtle approach to retouching so it isn’t obvious that anything has been done. If there is something in particular you'd like retouched, please tell us when you select your poses during your viewing and purchasing session. Black and white or sepia conversions are available.
Payment and Delivery
Your Session Fee is due at the time your appointment is booked. All orders are paid in full before being released to our lab for printing and finishing. Delivery time may vary depending on the finishing of your photography. We accept your Whatcom County check, VISA, MasterCard, and Discover cards. If you'd like we can arrange a payment plan. Just ask.
