Photo Service Rate Changes in 2020
Our photography service continues to grow and expand, and as always, we are striving to make things clear and easy for you.
In 2020 we are changing our photo service rates and structure in order to best serve all of our clients. We are moving to per-piece pricing and will have a $20, $30, and $45 price tier, depending on how much editing you need to be done on your photographs. We will also have a $75 archival-quality service for those who need their art carefully color-matched for prints. The full details on what each price tier includes are listed below.
Please reach out and let us know if you have any questions or concerns about our new services. We appreciate your continued business and look forward to meeting your photography needs in the New Year!
