Well, what can we say? 2010 has been an amazing year. Erin and I have really been blessed. This year, we took photos of a little girl who turned 5, and 5 years ago, we captured the first few days of her life! We have had the pleasure of working with repeat clients, and have met some amazing new people who we hope become friends for a long, long time! We've been there for our clients, through engagements, weddings, births, and as they graduate high school and start their journeys! We are so lucky to have the jobs we have, and we are constantly reminded of that, this time of year especially, as holiday cards come in left and right, from clients, friends, and family members that frame photos we've captured for them in 2010. It's an amazing feeling!!
Knowing that our business is growing, we have made the decision to change our rates, and packages, just a little. We foresee a future that includes lots and lots of photos, and we need to make some changes to our company that reflects just how far we've come since we started this business. We understand that some clients may choose to go elsewhere, or may not agree about the changes coming, but we sincerely hope that you all will understand the reasoning behind these changes is so that we can afford to make a living doing what we do best, and at the same time, still have time to spend with our family and friends.
The main change is that the CD of images is no longer going to be included in the session price. The session price is simply what you're paying for the service that Erin and I provide, the experience of working with the two of us for your family photos or your newborn pictures. We believe that we are worth it, and hope you agree! We are still offering high-resolution images in our package prices, and the CD of all images is available for purchase in every scenario.
Session prices have changed, just slightly, but not enough to make you break your piggy bank. We are going to be offering more prints in 2011, which include canvas wraps and purse-sized albums to carry with you 24-7! Also, we're always finding new, beautiful locations to choose from for your session, so that your photos can reflect your family's uniqueness and spunk :)
Again, we really hope that this change does not push anyone away, but in fact brings you closer to Erin and myself. We have worked long and hard to get where we are, and without YOU, we would not be where we are today. We appreciate each and every one of our clients, and referrals they give. 2010 was amazing, so believe me when I say that we cannot wait to see what 2011 brings!
We have opened up TWO dates in 2011 - January 9th and February 20th - so that you can get in before the session price changes are in order. Hurry and email us NOW (erinandiphoto@gmail.com) to get your session secured - they will go fast, and it's first come, first served.
Wishing everyone a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
