Peerless Portraits

The process can be broken down into three major steps, one of which has already been accomplished. 1. Attention: I try my best to get you to notice my work and what you can receive in terms of excellent portraits and superior service compared to a lower-quality, and blah/meh-experience budget-based photography options that abound. 2. Background: I speak with you over the phone, via zoom, or in person to get more information about you and why you want the photos. This is the single most important part of the process because we are telling a story. Whether it's a chest-up headshot or a milestone 60th birthday portrait. Gathering background also allows me to plan for things like locations, logistics, and special requirements. 3. Contract and Deposit: If you're good with the package I'm offering, I'll send you a contract and invoice. I can't consider myself hired until the invoice is paid because that allows me to make myself unavailable for any other clients who are seeking my art when your photo shoot is occurring. It also lets me start to spend the time planning for your pictures as far as what we can expect for weather, location, wardrobe, etc. If you can set aside the time to speak with me, you'll be glad we spoke. 4. Delivery: Because I'm a true professional, I ensure that your images are delivered within the time-frame established by the contract. Your prints will be sent to me first, where I'll perform a detailed inspection and make sure there are zero quality issues. If there's a problem, I pay for re-prints until they are right. You will be notified of every stage in this process. I hope that answers your question more specifically, because details are where an artist lives. Let's go beyond the snapshot and enter the realm of high-end portraiture. Take care, Terrance
