Digital Packages

If I've photographed you, then somewhere in your posession is a CD or DVD containing every high resolution digital image that I edited for you. Do you know where it is? Did you ever get around to having any of the images printed? I've found that in most cases, the answer to both questions is no. For me as a photographer, this is disappointing. I want to create beautiful images of people that they can display proudly in their home, not sit on a disc. There are other problems with this as well. We think of digital images as forever, but the truth is that the quality of a consumer written disc can deteriorate greatly in as little as a year if not stored correctly! The reality is that if you don't order archival prints of your images, they may not still be around in a decade.

As an extension of my fully cutomizable packages, I've decided not to automatically include these discs in my future contracts. All currently active contracts will be honored, but all future contracts will be for the shooting service only. This enables you, the customer, to make the choice of how you want your images preserved. I offer affordable archival quality prints in a multitude of sizes, custom designed albums, and many other photo products. You also have the option of purchasing my "digital package", which includes that same troublesome disc of all your high resolution digital images, as well as a custom designed DVD slideshow, both discs packaged in a custom designed and printed case. Our new digital package is available as an add-on to any photography package for $65.00 plus tax (6% for Michigan residents). I want to give you the power over your images that you deserve, without telling you which options are best for you.

I'm also happy to announce that my webmaster is putting together a print ordering system so that you can order your digital package, albums, prints, or other products directly from your digital proofing page on my website! I'm very excited!
