Why Print Your Photographs?
When I die, I seriously doubt that any of my heirs or trustees will go through the about 60,000 images in my hard drive in an effort to decide what they want to take from my estate. There are about 500 photos on my phone right now that mean something to me, but probably will be lost when I expire.
But the prints, the books, the albums, the portfolios and the wall art will be simple. It’s easy to divide and maybe it will worth something after I’m gone… but ultimately what I’ve printed will be the story and legacy that I will leave behind.

Why print?
Prints are tangible. As humans, we are not digital. We are analog beings. We see things because light is made up of waves, not bits (ones and zeros, positive and negative charges). If you lose you phone that print is still on the wall or the mantle. And after it’s served it’s purpose, it will get filed in the basement waiting to be discovered by the next generation.
Why print? In one word, legacy! Legacy is defined briefly as “a gift of property, especially personal property…” A print is a tangible image celebrating or documenting your story at that moment in time.

Framed Photographic Prints
Framed photographic prints are still the gold standard for your most precious memories. Here are samples of the frames I typically stock. For example the first image below and 8×10 image, 2 inch mat, and a 1 inch black frame retails for $225. Prices go up from there. Conservation reflection control glass is slightly more. All framed prints by quote.
Luxury Photo Albums and Books
My luxury albums truly are keepsakes. Albums are great for several types of photography like senior photos, engagement, maternity and boudoir. Because every album comes with options, i.e. number of pages, brand, cover, imprinting, albums are quoted at time of purchase based on size of album and number of pages.
Gemstone is the top of the line and comes in many sizes and choice of cover including leather, cloth, and imprinting.
8×8 Leather Cover, 10 spreads $1050
Photobook is an excellent choice as well. Slightly more economical than Gemstone.
8×8 Cloth, 10 spreads $695
Little Black Book – High quality prints, most affordable.
5×7 Black Cover, 10 spreads $395
The presentation box allows you display different matted photos (with the help of a small easel) and it’s classy.
Many Options
As your photographer and consultant it’s my job to help you create something special and unique, a work of art that you and yours will cherish.
