Frequently Asked Questions About Orders

Q:  Is there a web site where I can see all of the pictures taken of the event?

A: No photos are posted online.  Doing so would create a flood of personal privacy issues. Besides, it would be a daunting task to wade through 22,000 photos just to find the 150 or so with your family in them. Each family receives their own unique set of proofs either via mail or email. 

 

Q:  Is it possible to only purchase a few prints without a collection?

A:Yes.  Á la carte print and portrait pricing details are included with your photo proofs.  Any additional prints purchased with a collection receive a substantial discount.  

 

Q:  What will the inside of the album look like?

A:

Customized Stationery Page

At the beginning of every album is a piece of stationery with the Debutante’s name, the Terpsichorean emblem and the dates of the events. It’s a perfect introduction to set the stage for the photos that follow.

 

The Heirloom Collection

This album is larger in size than the Keepsake and Signature options (10x10) and custom designed to showcase more than one photo per page for up to 60 photos total.

This collection also comes with a gorgeous walnut image box that includes a 4x6 print and digital file of every image in your proof catalog.

 

The Signature Album

8x8 in size and include one image per page as shown here and includes thirty images

 

Q:  I want the heirloom, but love more than 60 photos that I want in an album what are my options? 

A:  We can further customize the heirloom collection to include more pages.  The pricing would change to reflect the number of additional pages added and would require a custom quote based on your needs.

 

Q:  Is it possible to physically remove photos from the album or add some into the album at a later time?

A:  Your album is custom printed and bound just for you. The photos in our albums are integrated into the page for a beautiful presentation that will last for many years.  Gone are the days of prints being slipped into shiny plastic sleeves or underneath matts. (professional quality album companies don't make that style anymore)  Because of this custom construction, images cannot be removed or added.

Q: Will the photos be touched up?

A: Yes! We want your memories to look their best. Each image selected for your album or loose prints goes through a series of touchups and enhancements to address color balance, shine on skin, blemishes, certain background distractions like wrinkles in the formal backgrounds at Marriott, or those awful lamp posts on the background of Meymandi. Those things are included for each image printed. What we can’t do is remove tan lines, make arms or anything else slimmer, “take twenty years off”, remove the heads in the foreground, or chairs from the background of the stage shots, or remove people from the background of party photos

Q: I saw that a "digital image" is included in some collections and on the a la carte options. What is that used for?

A:  Families often use this for their holiday cards, to print and share with friends, or to share on their social media accounts.

Q: If I choose a digital file, how will I receive it?

A:  After I have retouched and fully enhanced your image, you'll receive an email containing a link that will allow you to download the requested image

Q: I want all of my photos in digital format, is that possible?

A: Yes indeed! We have created the keepsake collection just for you.

Q: Can I call and give my order over the phone?

A:  I've found that can lead to some issues.  Better to use the super-easy web form.  No money is transacted on the form, so no risk of any nefarious hacking shenanigans.

Q: I have a question that is not covered here, who do I call?

A:  Text james at 919-736-6119 and he can answer your question or schedule a phone call as needed.
