Do You Offer Family Portrait Packages ?
Yes.  Collections are portrait packages that were compiled together by the most common requested sizes.  There is a moderate savings when portraits are ordered in collections. Collections start at $600. More detailed information can be found on our portrait preparation page.

What if the Collection is not really what we need ?
We are happy to build an order fully customizable. Ala Carte portrait pricing is available as well.

Can you shoot on weekends or in the evening ?
Yes.  Evening and weekend sessions start at $300 to $400

How far in advance do I need to schedule ?
For family portraits we usually ask for 2 to 3 weeks to properly plan the best session time for you. However, we understand that sometimes family comes into town last-minute, or a special event gets planned on short notice. We may be available on short notice. Holiday seasons are very busy. Start planning early to get the best options.

Do you handle business and commercial photo shoots ?
All commercial and video productions are quoted per project. 
Business Portraits are captured daily, contact us for packages.
 
Can you repair old and damaged photos and restore them ?
Quotes can only be given after we can evaluate your original image.
We must see your original in person to give you an accurate estimate. In some cases, you can email us an iPhone picture of the image you want to restore and we may be able to estimate it online.

Do you photograph weddings ?
We are not booking wedding day photography. However we do offer classical bridal portraits that we have specialized in for over 50 years.

Can I bring my pet to the studio ?
Absolutely, we love pets!

How long does it take to get my work ?
Preview sessions are usually held within a few day’s time. It's best to preview in the studio so we can help with suggestions on finishing your work. From the time the order is placed we usually ask for 2 to 3 weeks to complete.  Our Art / Painted Images can take up to 2 months. However, with any of our services, if there is a deadline, please let us know and we can try to accommodate.

What about digital files for Facebook / Social Media and Internet Previews ?
We are digital and social media friendly.  With any print order you place,  we are more than happy to release an image with a small studio watermark to be used for these purposes. This watermark must be visible and not cropped. However we do not release the right to print these images unless we have discussed with you in advance or in cases such as commercial or business clients.

Do I get a disk or thumbdrive ?
 Family Portraits:  The printing and finishing work we perform on each image is very much a part of the process of any of our finished portraits from our studio. In order to achieve the quality we produce, we print our own portrait work in-house.  Delivering a disk of your images to a photo lab won't even come close. If you're looking for a Social Media type of image, we are happy to provide a tastefully watermarked image for you with any print order. If you are looking for a photographer to shoot and burn all the images to a disk, we aren’t the studio for you.

Business Portraits: Yes. If you are using your portrait for business purposes, we accommodate digital requests from our clients so they can be printed for magazines, brochures, business cards, etc.

Sometimes there are special situations not mentioned above. Please check with us if you should have any questions. 

When do I pay for my session ?
Session Fees for first-time clients are due at the time the session appointment is made; for our returning clients we ask for the session fee at the time of the session.  On orders, we ask for a deposit at the time the order is placed.  The balance is due at the time of delivery.  7% Florida sales tax is applicable on all sales.

Do you offer framing ?
Yes.  Professional Full Service Custom Framing Service in-house at very competitive prices. Framing is not our main product so we can price this service very affordably. No need to take your portraits elsewhere.  We have several lines of custom frames that are very comparatively priced. Allowing us to frame your finished portraits will guarantee they are installed without mishap and fit perfectly for display.

Do you suggest certain clothing options ?

Yes. We offer a clothing guide to any client with a scheduled shoot. We also recommend looking at previous samples for inspiration. Think about your house and your family - are you more casual or formal? Is your house more jeweled tones or beauty, etc? We like to explain choosing your clothing like designing your house... you want to coordinate each other without being too matchy-matchy. We would love to set up a consult before you session to fine tune everything and make sure we capture your family in the best possible light.
