Delivering something different.

THE PROCESS

At Impact Photography, we offer a custom approach to your photographic experience. And that's it - we want it to be an experience. We don’t just do portraits; we bring out the real you, telling your unique story through a collection of personal portrait images and prints. It's important to record your story as your life grows and changes, and we want to capture your personality, style, and interests as it does. Whatever it is that makes you who you are, Impact will reveal it.

step 1 the staging

Your experience begins with an initial meet and greet where we get to know you, discuss your vision for your session, go over wardrobe, props, and location, and ensure we are the right fit for you as photographers. Since photographs capture your memories, we want to ensure your story gets told how you envision it.

step 2 the session

Just long enough, but not too long. It's relaxed, informal, and lots of fun. Feel free to bring props, music, and lots of personality; then, let us do the rest.

step 3 the retouching

Your password-protected proofing web gallery will be available within 72 hours after your session or one week after your wedding, where you'll have two weeks to choose and approve your favorite images for retouching. Your favorites will then spend individual time going through editing and full retouching to ensure every photo reveals the real you without distraction. A quick word about our retouching: we don't use any batch processing or purchased pre-sets in our retouching work. We approach each image individually to ensure the best attention and quality.

step 4 the viewing

We reveal the amazing images of you and/or your family in exclusive RETOUCHED + EDITED + WEB galleries from which you can DOWNLOAD + SHARE your photos. The gallery will be accessible for six months, or one year for weddings, to download images and share with friends and family.

TIPS

• Feel free to bring your favorite music - something that makes you relax and smile; it just adds to the experience!

• Consider your attire - make an effort to coordinate (not match) your attire with others in your session; this will make your photos more pleasing to the eye. Your wardrobe should consist of layers and texture, and we're not afraid of funky and colorful patterns; just make sure you are still in the spotlight! Accessorize!

• If your session includes props, feel free to include your hobbies and interests - is your son obsessed with cars? Bring a bucketful! Do you live to play guitar? Bring it along! Have you played soccer since the age of three? Let's catch you in action! Whatever makes you, well, you, we want to capture that, too.

• Keep your kids in mind - bring some snacks, drinks, and toys to entertain them during the shoot and keep everyone in good spirits. Get them excited about the shoot ahead of time.

• Besides that, HAVE FUN! Enjoy this time in front of the camera, and let us help you document a little piece of your ever-changing life!
