Munns Family Portraits

January 11, 2012

Oh the cuteness of this family. We love the Munns family! They needed an updated family portrait since their family is growing so fast these days.  This turned out great and made an amazing wall portrait print. I think I need to go over there and see it sometime. That’s always good to be able to go see our finished product in the home environment.

Thanks Munns family! We enjoy your faces!

Sorensen Family Portraits

January 5, 2012

Some of our favorite people came in just before the holidays to get family portraits done. Derek is heading out on his LDS mission, it was time! Now they have a great wall collection hanging so that they can keep him close. I know as a mom with a son far away, it’s so nice to be able to see his portrait displayed in my home.

Thanks to the Sorensen family for their continued support with us. They have rallied for a us a few times, it doesn’t go unnoticed!

This special is for the family who wants an amazing portrait at a lighter cost. Call and reserve your appointment for our first annual limited family portrait special. This is an all inclusive deal. On Saturday, December 10th  we will set up the warm studio with one popular family background, shoot one pose to perfection.

The all inclusive price includes

  • Family session sitting fee (Immediate families only please.)
  • Canvas Wrap in a 16×20. (Unique and classy and ready to hang! No frame needed.)

(There will be discounted options to upgrade the 16×20 and add on prints the day of the shoot.)

It’s our job to pose and light you properly for the best image possible. All of our images at Steve Harrington Photography are color enhanced, retouched for the sharpest image out there.

The set up will be like this example below. This set up has been so popular and talked about by our clients, this is how we will be working for the day.  Wear your attire accordingly. We have found that with a set up like this, black shirts and blues jeans are easy to match up with family members. It will also give you that timeless look that you’ll hang on your wall with pride.

This is a perfect  gift for a mother that has wanted a nice family portrait of her family without spending a lot of time and money. We are able to pass these savings onto you by providing shorter session times by providing only 1 pose, and by having the lights and  studio set up standard for the day. We are only going to have so many sessions available. You will need to call us with a retainer to create your appointment. Half of the session is due upon booking.

Call if you have any questions. 435-452-1952 We are doing it close enough to Christmas, that we can’t guarantee a Christmas delivery. Think of it as the best “after Christmas gift” you’ll ever get your mother! We all need a little happiness after the rush of the holidays.

So what you do need to do?

  • Call with a Credit Card TODAY! and reserve your 30 minute appointment. Give us a head count.
  • Use the example below to match your clothing to the set up.
  • Round up the family for the quickest session of your life on the 1oth of December.

Regular price is retailed at $450.00.

The 1 day discounted price (Get ready for this! We had to really do some thinking on giving you this price for the day….)

….  $299.00 plus tax! THIS is an amazing all inclusive 1 day deal and so we expect to book our sessions quickly. Call today to reserve your spot.

Have you ever just wanted 1 nice, classy portrait of your family to hang above the mantle or couch? This special is just for your family!

We are working on a “limited appointment Family Special.” We will take one day, set up the studio with one background, shoot one pose, and create an all inclusive session and print price. Look for it at the end of November or 1st of December. Saturday is a likely option. Again, we will have limited seating for this so watch close and/or send us a text to 77007 code: SHPfamily for the first update on this. Include your full name in the text please.

This is not a ‘cheap and cheesy’ family special. We will include a large framed print in the cost of this session. Pure class. We will hang one background, and you can match your family accordingly.

You have been notified! Keep checking back while we hammer out the details for this day rate and set up.

It’s time! At least once a year we go through and clean out our working computers to archive files. But before we do that, we are offering our second annual Client Appreciation Wallet Sale! We are here to reward our faithful clients with a sale!

We have slated the qualifications to be from the 2010-2011 year, since we usually archive our stuff annually. But if you are truly interested in purchasing wallets and your before this time-line, give us a call and we’ll see what we can do to make it happen!

  • If you have that new baby and you didn’t send a picture to the extended family, here is your chance.
  • If you have had family portraits taken by us recently, these would be great to buy and stash away for Christmas Cards!
  • Did we take a team picture of you that rocked and you want to share with family and friends? Here is your chance!
  • If you have a kick-butt senior picture you want to give to friends now that you have graduated and you are all going your separate ways. They are great little additions to “just because” cards.
  • Thank you card inserts!

This sale will last through this week only. We can make it super simple. Give us a call, we will help you find that image and we will do the rest! Please note that we will ask for payment during your phonecall, so have a credit card ready, or be prepared to bring a check or cash by that same day.

Thanks and we look forward to talking to you! If you have any questions – you can always call us at 435-452-1952

We were excited to take family portraits for the Jensen family. We timed it just right and found a perfect warm day for pictures. We definitely have some keepers here! Thank you for finding us and booking us Tammy! See you soon! – Shelley

Kim got in touch with us early this year to schedule a family session because Garrett is heading to Australia soon for his LDS mission. Congrats to him! I hope he doesn’t come home speaking funny. so anyway, Kim called us the night before to extend the session for all the family coming in to be with mom Wilkinson. It was a pleasure and an honor to take pictures for them. Their family is in our hearts and we wish them the best. Thank you so much for trusting us. It means a lot!

 

More family portraits

December 3, 2010

This would be the Williams family that came to us from the Ogden area. We enjoyed doing their family portraits before the snow covered us all in! They have adorable kids and we had a great time! Thanks for looking!

We’ve been photographing families for a long time now. One thing we know for certain, the more things change, the more they stay the same. Allow me to explain my thought process here. We are now entering our un-official family season for family portraits. What prompts family season to start as it gets chilly? These are the habits we see: Eager moms start thinking about Fall colors, chilly days, and family gatherings now that the business of summer is dying down. I assume by now it gives families more time to think about family and an incoming holiday season. Who doesn’t want to share their family portrait with extended family during the holidays? It’s the perfect gift, even if it’s only in a card! And what proud mom doesn’t want a current portrait of her clan displayed on her wall so that she can enjoy it every day?

We get asked all the time, “When is the perfect time to get a family portrait taken?” We can tell you with a smile that the answer would be, “Never!”

Why? Well, here’s the deal, and we see and hear about it every time we book a session! Families in Utah tend to be on the larger side (numbers, not weight! :) ) And with busy, growing families it always seems that there is ‘something’ going on, or someone missing, or someone is wanting to wait until they get their braces off, or someone is wanting to wait until they shed a few pounds…, but things get delayed and next thing you know, you have a missionary leaving, and now you have to wait 2 more years, and he/she finally gets home but now you have the oldest sister getting ready to have a baby, so we better wait for that, well let’s wait until the baby can smile, so let’s wait until Spring (We can count on 1 hand how many spring family sessions we have done. They just don’t happen, life gets in the way.) ….. Get my drift? It is NEVER a “perfect” time. So… there sits your wall, empty for years because you can’t find that perfect time!

Being guilty of this myself, we hear this all the time, “We haven’t had family portraits in eight years, because someone was always pregnant or gone.” It’s been 3 years since we’ve had a family portrait taken, but I promise that will change this year!

This is the question that has haunted our sleep for years. Finally this past winter season, one of the mom’s coming in with her brood in tow for family portraits said the PERFECT reply to that question. I’d like to thank her for that epiphany. She  said, “This family may change in a year, but this is us, right here, right now… and this is a great memory to have.”

The moral to my little story would be this: It may never be the perfect time, but right now is the best time. It’ s no easy task to try to be perfect, but you can be your best.

We are booking into October by now. If you need a weekend to get the family together, give us a call ASAP. Saturdays fill up first and fast – We will shoot on Sundays during this season, if the need is there. We know how hard it is to get your young adult children anywhere near the house during the week. Call us for availability and bring your family to someone you can trust to get the job done, and have you thrilled with the results. That’s our mission in life! We don’t want you to just be satisfied, we want you to be thrilled! It’s our guarantee. And hopefully the “proof is in the pudding.”

Thanks for reading! -Shelley

Fair Weather – Optional

October 21, 2009

The Wise family is probably use to sitting in a rainstorm or even snowstorm or two since football is in their blood. The fun about this time of year, the weather is terribly unpredictable! I think it sprinkled the whole time we were taking pictures. You can see it if you look really close in a few pictures.  But these guys were troopers! Even Brighton hung in there until we were done, good girl! She’s no sissy!

Family pictures at the football field, accomplished! Thanks Wise fam… see you soon!
