Our philosophy is “What’s YOUR inspiration?” We start with a no obligation consultation and listen to the senior’s vision and then we show them locations, times of day, clothing ideas, posing ideas and we customize the session just for them. They get a magazine at the consultation with all the pricing and wall art information. After your session, you have a viewing and ordering appointment to choose your favorites and we help you choose what products you like. We have a $99 off in June and $49 off in July special running early in the summer.
