Images in Use: Framed Fine Art Prints

Framed Fine Art Print I'm always proud and excited to see my work on display. These images are from my Fine Art Print Collection and they are two of my personal favorites. These images were both printed at 16x20 and mounted on foamcore. They were matted with a two-inch black mat and then framed in a very simple contemporary black frame. I personally prefer simple displays for my images, and I love these exactly as they are, but larger mats also work very well for wall portraits. A good framer can help recommend mat and frame options that would work best for a particular image. I do have a couple of custom frame options available through my partnership with Time Frames Custom Picture Framing, or you could contact Karen directly if you want to see some other choices.

WRC Soccer Picture Day Schedule Updates

My crazy season of picture days for sports teams and clubs (including pictures for Youth Soccer, two Dance Schools, and a Women's Motorcycle Club) started this week. Everything has gone well so far, but as expected there are already a few updates to the schedules for the WRC Soccer Picture Days. If you're looking for the latest and greatest updated schedule you can find it on the WRC Soccer Picture Day page. That page will be kept up to date with all the information about the soccer pictures, including links to the image galleries as they are posted. http://www.riverwoodphotography.com/wrc-soccer-2011 Feel free to ask if you have any questions about the process?

New Client Order Entry System

This is a first-look announcement that I have recently installed a brand new order entry system in the client area! The new system is a full-featured shopping cart that allows for direct order entry by you the client. This is a quantum leap forward vs. my old system! You will have full access to order packages, prints, and other products on the site, and pay for them immediately. You will be able to select the images you want in each package and in each size. You will be able to see exactly what your order is going to cost and how many print credits you have available to use. This is going to make my life (and yours) so much easier following a photography session, and I am very excited about this change! For now I have only been able to include a limited range of products, but eventually this will expand to include the majority of stock products that I offer, including photo books and albums. Custom products will always be available by contacting me directly. The old client area has already been replaced with the new system and all previous client galleries have been deactivated. For various reasons I will be transferring a limited number of the old galleries over to the new system, but I will not be automatically activating every gallery. If you are looking for images from one of your past sessions please let me know and I would be happy to transfer your gallery as well. If you're interested in checking out the new order entry system please feel free to visit the Client Area of the site and check out the Fine Art Prints gallery. This gallery is [...]

Are you still using a picture of your dog instead of a Professional Headshot?

Updated Packages for Headshots and Business Portraits I have very recently revamped and simplified my options and packages for Headshots and Business portraits. My clients have been asking for simplified pricing for a while, and many really didn't understand why they might choose one of the old packages over another, so I have cleaned all that up! If you have a moment to check out my Headshots Portfolio and the updated Business Portrait Pricing Guide I would appreciate it. Please contact me if you have any questions about the changes? Online Registration for Headshot Appointments About Business Portraits Professional Headshots and Business Portraits are essential for use on corporate websites, social media accounts (Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, etc.), actor portfolios, and even your print marketing materials. If you haven't looked at your Headshot in a while, you need to do so now! Does it still look like you? Does it represent the image you're trying to portray for your business or your personal brand? Do you even have a real headshot (a picture of your dog, cat, or child doesn't count!)? If the answer to any of these questions is no, you really need to contact me!
