Do you want senior portraits that are really personalized? Many photographers allow you to bring props to their sites, but still keep you on their grounds or close to their studio. If you're looking for an extended indoor shoot or closely-controlled outdoor shots, go with them. We want your senior pictures to be truly unique and reflect you, so we take them where you want and with whatever props you want.

Our goal is to make senior portrait decisions as simple and easy as possible. To that end, we travel to where you want to shoot and advocate more of an a la carte approach when it comes to prints. At the end of the process, we want you to have the pictures you want, so we give you the freedom to get exactly that.

Because we mostly work on a time basis and travel to the place of your choosing instead of making you come to our place, we don't really see the need for limiting the number of outfits or settings. We offer suggestions to make sure we get the number of proofs you expect, but you are in charge of your shoot.

We have you pick from three session packages that define a few parameters but still leave your picture choices wide open. Read on to see what I mean.

Cum Laude - $45

• Limit of 1.5 hours
• Ideal for 2 to 3 outfits

The only thing due on the day of the session is the session package fee.

All locations more than 20 miles from Nixa will incur a mileage charge. See the FAQ for details.

Instead of having you pick from pre-defined packages, we tell you the minimum amount you need to spend for each session package and let you pick it out of the available prints. Many customers are looking for specific print sizes and we don't want you to be forced into buying a package that has sizes you don't want.

All croppings and black and white/sepia/overall tone adjustments are always free. Small touch-ups are free for 30 days after initial delivery. After that, there will be a small charge.

Proofs are usually done within a week. We will upload the pictures to our developer's website and you can review them there and order prints if you want to. You also have the option to purchase the license for your digital proofs.

A 50% deposit will be needed before a print order is processed.

Instead of buying prints, you can choose to purchase the license for your proofs. This option means you'll get high quality digital images which you can use to order as many prints as you want from the local Wal-Mart, Walgreens, or any other developer who accepts digital images. This allows for maximum flexibility while still assuring high quality, professional digital images. If you still want some prints developed by us, you may order them with no minimums after you have chosen to buy the license for all your proofs.

Here are the prices:

• $250 (plus tax) for all proofs from a Magna Cum Laude shoot
• $350 (plus tax) for all proofs from a Summa Cum Laude shoot

If you choose to buy the license for your proofs, please tell us either during the shoot or as soon as possible afterward to get your images sooner. We will burn you a disc of all the proofs and either ship it or meet to give it to you. Additionally, we will upload them to our developer's online gallery system in case you or your friends and family want to order professionally-developed prints. For 30 days, you can send us an email describing any changes you want, and we'll email the resulting files to you and upload the new images to the same online gallery. After 30 days, there will be a small charge for touch-ups.

These prices might seem high, but remember: you will be able to develop, copy, and email these pictures as many times as you want as long as it's for personal use. Since basically every developer now accepts digital files, you have lots of flexibility.

If you only want to buy the license for a few proofs, they will be $25 apiece and do count toward your minimum package purchase.

Want a collage of several pictures? Personalized graduation invitations on photo paper? We can work with you to create something unique. Since each project is different, we can discuss options and prices once we know what you want.

We're fairly new to the whole advertising/website thing, so we always appreciate feedback. The feedback from people who end up not choosing us could be the most valuable. If you decide to go with another option, please drop us a line and let us know what we could improve. Don't like the site layout? Not enough pictures in the gallery? Prices not where you were expecting? Site too wordy? Please let us know so we can improve our business.

Thank you.
