Custom photography is a luxury. Unlike department stores or chain studios, custom photography affords you the complete luxury of customising your session to you or your family’s needs. Working with a custom photographer like The Loft, means that you are working with someone who is invested in taking the time to ensure you get the very best from your portrait experience.
Most clients who opt for custom portraiture are clients who appreciate and value high-end custom work , and who have a strong desire to celebrate their families in the form of “art” on their walls, in albums, as gifts to family and friends, as unique and timeless design elements for home decor. We are happy to discuss your vision and budget and how you can best use the images from your session to fulfill you needs.
A professional photographer is not your neighbor who has made a trip to Best Buy and bought what they think is the latest and greatest DSLR camera. Even if they have the best professional photographer’s camera, that does not make them a professional photographer. If you decide to go that route, you may regret that decision and you can’t reshoot a wedding and senior portraits are images you will have for a lifetime.
Using an experienced photographer is the best way to go. Also, keep in mind that there is time involved. Even if you only need one shot, it will take time to find the best shot, ensure the best lighting and in the case of senior portraits, wait for the subject to change outfits. Our professional senior portrait photographers will be able to give you advice on what to wear and have suggestions for great photographs. Our wedding, family and senior portrait photographers have done this before and are here to guide you through the process. That’s why our professional photographers stand out among the crowd.
Another thing to keep in mind is the cost of professional photographers’ equipment. We only use high quality DSLR cameras, specialized lenses, professional memory cards, and lighting along with the customized software for image processing. MVP customers benefit from the latest professional technology being used in the photographs.
Something else that falls under the time umbrella is the time it takes to produce the image. Some things that go into a photo shoot are; setting up the equipment in advance, downloading the photos and going through them after the shoot, digital touch-ups to the photos, deciding which photos are best for prints, burning the photos onto DVDs or CDs, sending them to the lab, and many, many more things.
I think most would agree that there is a great value you get from working with professional event, school, youth sports, senior portrait and wedding photographers.
