Making It Easy
That’s what Linda Johnson Photography’s is all about. I want to make things easy for you. To have your portrait crated, just follow these simple steps.
1. Call today to set up your Design Consultation Appointment!
I realize that everybody is different; therefore every portrait is one of a kind original. I will meet with you to create a design concept. We will discuss wardrobe, colors and how to incorporate personal items from home to tell a story about your family history, hobbies, or professions. I will review with your the rates and services available.
2. The Studio Portrait Session
The lighting is my signature style; it is soft and warm. The lighting style creates the beauty and realism in the portraits. I allow approximately two hours for your portrait session. During the first fifteen minutes of your appointment I will be setting up. I recommend that you get dressed at the studio during this time, to avoid getting messed or wrinkled. For children parents are encouraged to observe and to be available if needed.
3. The Preview Presentation
Your portrait preview will include your images personally choreographed in musical audiovisual program just for you. I allow approximately two hours for the presentation and selection process. I will help you critique your images to determine your favorites. I will help you to understand what makes a portrait “Timeless” by discussing expression and composition. During this time you will decide on the sizes and finishes you would like to order. A 50% deposit will be due at that time. I accept cash, check, MasterCard and Visa. Your finished portraits will be complete in approximately 8-10 weeks. No order is released until it meets our high standards of excellence.
4. Digital Proofs and Purchasing Digital Files:
For clients wanting digital proofs and to purchase digital files vs prints, an on-line gallery will be available to you within 1-2 weeks of your photo shoot vs coming into the studio to see your proofs. One image will be included with our initial session fee. This image will be fully retouched and a high res image will be emailed to you within 1-2 week of your selection which includes unlimited usage rights. Additional files can be purchased. Rush service can be requested, rates vary depending on how fast you need it. To see your proofs a date will be given to you at the time of the photo shoot when the images are going to go live. If you want to order prints or wall portraits from your images a price list will be provided with your on-line gallery offering two different finishes and a variety of sizes that are available. At that time you will be offered a 20% discount off the print prices if you place your order by phone within the first 48 hours the images go live.
5. Your Finished Portraits
Each of my finished pieces are hand crafted and will be retouched. So don’t worry about facial imperfections such as blemishes, scratches or rashes. Facial lines or darkness under the eyes will be softened. You will be called when your finished portraits are ready and an appointment will be scheduled for you to pick them up. Your balance will be due at that time. If your interested I have a large variety of frames that are competitively priced if you have a specific décor that you are trying to match, I will work with you.
