BEGIN WITH THE END IN MIND
You know you need family portraits but what are you going to do with them? At Struss Portraits we begin with the end in mind, which means, before Cheryl ever picks up the camera, we have a plan for where and how these photos will hang in your home or the story we want to tell in your family album.
What does the space look like where you want to display a portrait - tall and skinny, part of a family gallery, statement piece for a feature wall?
These are the areas we address at the one-on-one consultation.
THE CONSULTATION
Why start with a consultation? It is the best opportunity for Cheryl to learn more about your family, your personalities, your uniqueness and your end goal for your portrait session.
Your questions will be answered, including:
What types of clothing photograph best.
A full understanding of the investment you'll be making.
The most suitable areas of your home for your family portraits.
THE SESSION
We know that it can be an enormous task to get everyone ready, dressed and looking their best. We know the effort you make and Cheryl does not take that lightly. The goal is for your session to be a fun and great experience. All you need to do is get here, we'll take care of the rest.
THE VIEW AND ORDER
Approximately one week after your photo session, you will come to the studio for your View and Order appointment. Your View and Order appointment is the time set aside to finalize your portrait order, so be sure and schedule a time when both mom and dad can be there.
TAKE ALL THE CREDIT
The hard work is over. Your portraits adorn the walls of your home. Your family album has pride of place on your coffee table. Sit back and take credit for creating those beautiful humans that are your children and enjoy seeing the people you love on the walls of your home. Every.Single.Day.
