Time & Date Tips, and the
big question about Rain
Over twelve years experience
doing our Portraits in the Park tells us: The light is best on overcast and hazy days.
On sunny days the light is best at 9:00AM,
9:30AM, 4:00PM, 4:30PM .
The fall leaves are "usually" at their
peak mid October, but last two years it was late
Oct.. However a heavy rain or wind can also effect how many leaves will
be left on the trees, always a gamble and impossible to predict.
Most families spend $600 - $1500+
on their family portraits, including gift size photos for friends and
family and a framed Wall Portrait. Wallets size and Christmas Cards are also
popular.
YIKES RAIN!!! In the event that it is actually raining on the day of
your shoot, we will call you to offer alternative dates,
a postponement or a cancellation. Rain is not unusual for October so we
keep a few "open" dates just in case.

"We are so delighted with your portraits of Heather,
Courtney & Lise. The enjoyment level is more than 100%."
Karen Whyte, Ottawa
"Love the pictures, your the best."
Roberta Desjardine, Ottawa
"Just
an email to say thank you again for the pictures. They look beautiful and
we are so happy with them. We've already got the 8X10 framed and I know my
parents will love getting it for Christmas"
Meredith Foot
"You may or may not remember us from a
family portrait in the park taken in 2004. I simply wanted to let you
know how many compliments we have received on our family portrait that
hangs on our wall. I have highly recommended you to many friends with
young children. We have a new baby (now 10 months), so when he gets a
little bit more hair, we will definitely call you for a new family
portrait! Take care and have a great fall season." Carolyn.
"What do I do now?" you ask.
1:Phone (613) 226-2079 to book your sitting date and time
2: Weekend sitting
fees are paid at the time of your booking. We accept cash, cheque, Interac, Visa, MasterCard, or PayPal.
The retainer is non refundable and is used to guarantee your date and
time. Please Note: We never hold or "tentatively" book a
time or date until we receive your retainer.
3: We email out a confirming letter a
week before your family portrait. It will confirm date and time, directions
to the park and a list of clothing suggestions, what to
wear and what not to wear for your portrait.
4: Your on-line proofs are ready in
about 24 hours.
5: Portrait orders take about 2 weeks for
packages and 4 weeks for mounted or framed portraits.
