High School Senior Sessions 2008 with a Free Family Portrait Session included! *
“The Grand Tour”
Get ready for some personalized creative attention! Expect to have fun for at least 3 hours. I’m not worried about time. My specialty is location photography. Between the two of us we’ll come up with some great places to photograph. This will make sure your portraits stand out from the rest! Of course, if you’d like your yearbook portraits in the studio we’ll do that too. We’ll shoot color and black and white. You can include up to five outfits (be careful, too many complicate the selection process later). Your session fee includes your yearbook portrait.
A minimum portrait order of $750 is required with this session (details below).
“The Graduate” 
This session can be way more than traditional. I’ve got some great ideas for making you the focus of attention. You won’t find those big “2003” posing blocks here. I’ve even added a brief stop at another location outside the studio. Choose 3 different outfits and you’ll be excited with what you see! By the way, black and white is still included and so is your yearbook portrait. A minimum portrait order of $450 is required with this session (details below).
Session/Reservation Fee
Our portrait sessions have a separate fee that is paid in advance to reserve your time with me. It covers planning consultation time, session time, creation of the images, and your yearbook portrait.
*Also included, is a family portrait session at no charge ($150 value!). The minimum purchase requirement with free family session is $375. Please ask for further details.
Call us at 848-2060 to schedule your session!
No Portrait Packages: A few notes from Paul
Where are the packages? You make your own. I’ve found throughout my career that not only is everyone different but also so are his or her portrait needs. I could offer 10 packages and still not satisfy everyone. By having you order exactly what you want you don’t pay for things you don’t need. You are also able to order from any or all of your favorites without paying “extra pose” charges. Ultimate freedom!
For comparison purposes only, I have sample portrait orders below that could fulfill the minimum purchase requirements for my two sessions.
“The Grand Tour”minimum sample portrait order could include:1-20” Wall Portrait, 2-8x10’s, 8-5x7’s, 40-wallets
“The Graduate” minimum sample portrait order could include:
1-11x14, 2-8x10’s, 4-5x7’s, 24-wallets
Portrait Finishes
All our Custom portraits are beautifully retouched wherever necessary to minimize facial lines and blemishes, coated for protection, and mounted on artist’s board (8x10 and larger). Masterpiece Wall Portraits are then embedded in artist’s canvas and brush textured, following contours of the imagery for beautiful protection. These special touches will not only make you look your absolute best but will also keep your portrait looking that way. Glass is not necessary or recommended when framing any of your finished portraits.
New Finish! Metallic!! – Just add 10% to Custom Portrait price

Ordering Information
Within 1-2 weeks of your session we will schedule an appointment to view your images. You will have the opportunity to see all your images beautifully projected large and set to music. We will work together to pick out your favorites and place your portrait order. Please come with your portrait needs considered (our portrait checklist is a great tool), and be ready to place your order. 50% down is required before your order can be placed with the balance due when the order is picked up. Please allow 4 weeks for delivery.
Previews/Proofs
No paper proofs! Instead of trying to find your best image while looking at a small paper proof we will project them large on the wall so you can see all the critical detail necessary to make the correct decisions when choosing your portraits. You can also see your choices at the exact size you intend to order! Please come prepared to this viewing session with all decision makers, as you will be placing your order at this time. This way I can help you with some of the decisions as well as give you some recommendations. Also it gets done and your senior will get their portraits in a timely manner and it won’t be hanging over your head to finally get it done.
