Portrait Photography Services

Studio Sittings
Portraits of individuals, couples, or groups created in the studio utilizing studio lighting, various backgrounds, and optional props. A standard sitting provides 12-15 proofs, offering a variety of poses and/or changes of clothing from which to choose for final portrait selection. A double sitting provides 25-30 proofs, offering an even greater variety of poses and/or combinations of people from which to choose.

Location Sittings
Portraits created "on location" are unique and distinctive, incorporating the personality and beauty of your home or yard, or the natural beauty of a park, structure, or scenic location.

Consultations
Prospective clients are encouraged to come to the studio for a free, no-obligation portrait consultation. At that time, they can discuss their portrait needs or questions with the photographer, and get a feel for the relaxed, friendly atmosphere at the studio.

Clothing
In general, the more subdued the clothing, the better. Large prints, stripes, patterns and bright colors distract the viewer from the subject's face and its expression. With more than one subject, the coordination of colors and styles worn greatly helps to produce a more pleasing portrait.

Sitting Fees
Sitting fees pay for the cost of the professional photographer, studio space, film, processing and production of proofs. All sitting fees are non-refundable, and due at the time of the sitting.

Proofs
All of the original images, or proofs, are loaned to you to make your selection for the final portrait(s). However, they are the property of the studio and must be returned within the time specified. They are then kept on file at the studio with the negatives in the event that in the future you may wish to order additional portraits.

Turn-around times:
Proofs are ready to view in about 7 days. Final portraits are usually ready about 3-4 weeks from the time the order is placed. However, special needs can often be met.

Personal Web Site and Ordering Service

For a small additional fee, you, your family and friends may view your proofs and order prints (and even posters!) at any time, any day from a web site set up specially for you at glenrocphotography.com!
