This winter, I’m offering to shoot portraits and design a card for you: all in one package. For $200:*
If you’re intersted, please click below for more information. Thanks!
- 1-2 hour portrait session (this can be yourself, with a friend, or your family)
- 15-3o digital images for you to keep ( full resolution )
- 1 custom design for your card
- 50 professionally press-printed cards (flat cards, with print/design on both sides, printed on textured art paper)**
The whole package is worth about $300 ( photosession, postprocess+designwork, and cost of printing) but I am offering this price because: 1. We all need a good deal these days, 2. I need a reason for people to hire me, and 3. I want you to be willing to take a chance at some quality work.
*I really want to offer a quality service to people that they can choose to afford, and I also want to give people the chance to give a little extra as a tip, if they feel the work is outstanding. This has been a great way to work with past clients, and given people a chance to respond to the work at hand.
** I’m open to making a package that fits better for your needs (just digital work for online posting or printing photographs too)
On top of this, I will be offering my services for free to people in our community who cannot afford to pay for professional photographs. You are also invited to donate to this cause. Any money donated will be added to a fund that will cover costs of printing, and help to recoup some costs of my own labor. Please email me if you’re interested in this opportunity.
So hurry, times running out until Christmas or the New Years! Please contact me here: chiafrica+hope@gmail.com or you can leave a comment below. If you want to see some of my work, check out my Flickr page, some sets on Flickr, and some of my Wedding and Portrait work.
From Shauna (October 2008):
Ben’s photos are AMAZING. He was able to make all of us look good — even our two-year-old, who did her best to hide from the camera the whole time. When we sent out the Christmas cards he did for us last year, people were commenting on them for months. In fact, a friend in Guatamala said she wanted to pack up her family and fly to California just so Ben could photograph them, too. I can’t recommend him highly enough!!
Here are some samples from last year’s session with the Olson-Hong family (October 2009).
