BELOW IS A DESCRIPTION OF "THE STANDARD SESSION" with extraordinary results!
(But you should know: we RARELY provide merely "The Standard" session.)
That's why your photographic adventure with Fall RIver Photo
begins with a face-to-face discussion of up to an hour
so that we can ensure that you star in uniquely creative works of art.
Enjoy a fun outing in the beautiful Monterey Bay region,
be the "focus" of attention,
and get some wonderful images to see and share.
What's not to love?
YOUR SHOOT INCLUDES:
Up to 2 hours of shooting
(about 3 hours total time on location)
with encouragement and coaching
for posing, gestures, expressions, and more.
With up to seven other people**
at your choice of location
(we can make suggestions, if you'd like)
within one hour of Salinas, California.
We advise just one outfit for each person per standard session.
Wardrobe changes are possible, but count toward your total session time.
DO, however, bring changes of clothing for children
(and for any adults holding diaper-aged babies).
Also bring brushes, combs, and other hair accessories,
plus touch-up makeup, etc.
AFTER THE SHOOT:
Give us up to thirty days for sorting and editing,
and then schedule with us for 2 hours of presentation
of at least 12 images (usually 20-30)
in a variety of styles from which to select your favorites.
Then we ask for another thirty days for
final preparation of each image you select,
and to print 5 "sheets" of high-quality prints.
(A sheet = one 8x10, or two 5x7s, or four 4x6s;
and digital rights for those images.)
ALSO AVAILABLE:
Additional prints/images are available at a price per sheet/image.
(You get both the prints and the digital files
for each image to post as you wish.
No unedited or re-edited images may be posted.)
Also available: non-standard sized paper prints;
canvas, metal, and/or acrylic prints;
hardcover image album(s);
other image-printed products,
and more.

Your photo session and five "sheets" of images (with edited digital files of each image)
