At LifeScapes Photographic Arts, we pride ourselves in providing the best service
that you can get in the industry. Our expectations to create the finest in photography
will probably far exceed the expectations you might have of fine photography!
We take care to ensure that we know our clients’ objectives and their taste.
We honor your preferences and also give you more to consider! We offer the following
services:
Family Portraiture:
Families are one of life’s most special blessings! We love to
get to know our client families and work with them on creating a timeless portraiture
that will be cherished for generations to come. The first thing we do with our
families is to have a phone consultation where we discuss clothes, location, preparing
for the sitting, and our client’s objectives. We go to your location or have
many picturesque places in the Sacramento area that you might want to consider if
you do not have a location of choice. We usually send out 2 photographers or 1
photographer and an assistant. We have special packages once in a while for families
but we generally charge $75.00/hour for a sitting and then charge for the portraits
you would like. We take all our pictures in Camera RAW, process them in
our digital darkroom and use Photoshop to make incredible images! All enlargements
of 8x10 and larger are slightly retouched and enhanced unless otherwise
specified by our clients. Major re-touches will be discussed and charged accordingly
to the retouch needed.
Senior Portraiture:
We are so happy to share in this wonderful time of a young
person’s life. The time that they are transitioning into adulthood. They are full of
life and fun and anticipation of what their future holds. Their plans and their
dreams ready to be embarked upon! We always do a phone consultation with our
young adults - giving them ideas that will make for an incredible senior portrait.
We go on location for this sitting for the outdoor lighting is most natural. We
have some very reasonable prices on a couple of packages for our seniors. These
packages are deeply discounted for we believe that every senior should have quality
senior portraits to commemorate this exciting time in their lives.
Wedding Photography:
This is the most important day of your lives - one that
you’ll remember and cherish. The pictures from this special day are an investment
in your love and a memory for you to show your future generations! These
pictures will be timeless and should never be compromised. We go through
great pains to ensure that the pictures taken on this day are the very best - creative,
reflective, emotionally charged, and captured. We cover every wedding with 2
photographers and 1 assistant. We do not compromise on anything so that you
will love the product we deliver to you. In order to arrive at the excellence that
this occasion demands, we go to great lengths to ensure that we have all bases
covered. We are very particular on the services we provide for weddings. We do
not scrimp on anything so that you won’t ever have regrets over the photography
of your wedding. We have several consultations with you during the entire planning
stages of your wedding. We get to know you so we know your preferences;
what is important to you; who is important to you; and what you envision for your
wedding day. We meet with your immediate family to make sure that we meet
their photographic needs also. Before your big day, we make visits to the site of
your ceremony and reception to check out the grounds and the lighting. We give
you ideas for decorations, providing suitable background for great pictures at all
the venues. We contact your caterers, your DJ or band, and/or your wedding planner
to find out the details about how your day will unfold and to see how we can
best work together to make your day go as smoothly as possible. Depending on
the package you pick, we provide full coverage for your wedding day. Our assistant
provides insurance to us that all of our pictures are saved to two different
places while we are on location so that there is no loss of pictures. (A nightmare
that we’ve only heard about from other people.) We want you to have a “dream
wedding” and we want quality pictures to depict the essence, the romance and the
significance of that very special day.
Individual Portraits:
We take individual portraits of kids and adults alike. Our
goal is to capture the very essence of each individual. For children, we like to
capture the innocence and the wonderment that is so inherent and precious in their
little personalities. The traits that leave them when they become older. We also
take professional pictures of people to use on their advertisements and business
cards. Please contact us regarding your specific needs and we will work up a bid
for you.
Special Events:
Family reunions, Birthdays, Religious celebrations, Anniversary
parties, etc. We would love to be part of your celebration - capturing the happy
faces and the fun and essence of the event and the people you have asked to share
your special day. Please call us with your specific needs and we will work up a
bid for you.
Final Production of Images:
Our retouched computer image leaves our premises
to be produced at one of our country’s finest Photographic Professional Labs.
This lab has services and equipment far greater than any one photographer can offer.
We offer several levels of finished products and services to suit your taste and
home or office decor. During our proof consultation, we will provide you with
the details so that you can make an informed decision on your finished product. |
