The Process, how does this all work?
Step 1 - Set Up Your Consultation
Give me a call! Lets find a date and time that works well with you. If this is a senior consult the senior does need to be present.
Step 2 - The Consultation
This is when you learn EVERYTHING about Mette McConnell Photography. We will discuss pricing, locations, your vision for your portraits, your portrait needs and wants and I'll show you lots of samples. We'll discuss what to wear and how to prepare. This is when you will pick the session that fits your needs and pay the session fee/retainer. Sessions start at $100.
Step 3 - Your Portrait Session
I'll be emailing you all you need to know for preparing for the session. Review all the tips, get lots of sleep, be on time, and GET EXCITED!! You know I will be!! When your session is complete we'll set up your ordering session 2-3 weeks after the session.
Step 4 - Viewing Your Portraits Online
By setting up your appointment for your ordering session your images will be posted in an online viewing gallery. This will give you the opportunity to view the photos in the privacy of your own home, you can boo hoo all you want in privacy! Approximately 7 days after your session I will call you to let you know your gallery is ready and will provide you with the log in info. Timing of this can be a little longer during the busy senior and holiday seasons. Keep this in mind when scheduling your session, and make sure you tell me about any important deadlines!
Step 5 - Ordering Session
I'll provide you with a worksheet that will help you to prepare for your ordering session. All persons involved in the decesion making must be present. During your ordering session you will pick out your images and products. In order to start editing/order placing process 50% of the total package is due at this time. Please note that ordering sessions cancelled within 72 hours (or no shows) will be subject to a $50 rescheduling fee.
Step 6 - Portrait Delivery
Once your products arrive to the studio I'll give you a call to set up an appointment for pick up. Here we will go over the order, select framing and pay the balance due. Then they are yours to take home and enjoy for generations to come!
