WELCOME AMY KRISTIN PHOTOGRAPHY WELCOME GUIDE
WELCOME
I’m Amy! THE AMY KRISTIN PHOTOGRAPHY EXPERIENCE Do you have an iPhone full of photos as well as CDs and hard drives full of photos, none of which are printed? If you’re nodding your head yes, I’m here to change that. AKP is a full service boutique photography business. My goal is to make sure you not only have an amazing session that leaves you with fun memories but also to provide you with heirloom quality prints and products that will last a lifetime. I specialize in creating custom portraiture for you. No more files hidden away in drawers for no one to see. About two weeks after your session you’ll have your Session Premiere Night where you’ll get to see all of your images for the first time. That night we’ll work to create beautiful products to showcase your entire session. From wall art to image boxes to albums-AKP has a full range of products to meet all of your needs! I’m guessing that right now you’re saying “But I want the digital files!”. Don’t worry I completely understand where you’re coming from. I value digital files as much as you do (otherwise I wouldn’t have a stack of hard drives filled with my own memories!). AKP offers collections that include digital files along with the quality products for your family to enjoy. You’ll get the best of both worlds AND get them for a lower price when they’re combined in a collection. Doesn’t get much better than that! So now it’s time to grab a cup of coffee and flip through these pages. Learn how, together, we’ll create an experience of a lifetime!
“N had such a fantastic time at his senior photo shoot with you and we love the photos! Thanks for making this a great experience. We’re so glad we came down to RI for his senior photos.” -A.F.
•PLANNING YOUR SESSION•
Are you dreading planning your session? Are you dreading trying to get all those kiddos to smile?
Surprise! Your session is going to be fun!! I know how you feel! It’s easy to get overwhelmed with the planning of the outfits, choosing the perfect location and keeping everyone happy long enough to at least look happy in the photos. It’s a good thing for you that I will help you with all of these things! Here are a few tips as we begin to plan your session. Remember that I’m here with you through the whole thing so be sure to relax and let things flow! -Think about what type of photos you are looking for; studio portraits or outdoors on location? If your decision is for an on location shoot, think about places your family absolutely LOVES. The beach? Your backyard? A park, farm, or hiking trail? Even your own kitchen, making zucchini bread from those zucchini in the garden? Wherever it is, think of where your family has the most FUN. -If you’re stumped on locations, don’t worry: I’ve got plenty of suggestions up my sleeve to help you out! -When choosing outfits refer to the “What to Wear” portion of this guide and remember it’s likely you can choose right from your own closets! -Stressed about convincing your child (or husband) to give the perfect smile? Don’t worry, I’ve got it covered. The best thing you can do to help make this happen is to relax and let me handle it. I pride myself on taking the time to get to know your family, to play and have fun. During this time I’ll grab the fun candids but also convince your child that they like me enough to smile for those perfect shots! -Keep the bribery at home! Most likely we won’t need it and if we do, I come prepared! I’ll have a special something for each of your children for after the session...if they’re not cooperating that usually does the trick!
“”When I first saw the prints from this session, I had a bit of a ‘moment’. They’re amazing. We have a whole wall in our house dedicated to this session. Thank you.” -M.M.
After the Session You’ve had your session and you loved it....what’s next? Your Session Premiere Night! Your Session Premiere Night will be two weeks after your shoot (we’ll book it at the same time we book your photo shoot). You’ll get to see your photos for the first time! Session Premiere Nights are great! On Session Premiere Night I’ll come to you (no babysitter needed!) and I’ll even bring treats. We’ll start by watching a slideshow of the images from your session. After you’ve experienced the slideshow you’ll have some time to go through all of your images and take a look at all of the product samples. Seeing everything in person will really give you a sense of what products are most important to you. I love all the products I offer but a couple of my favorites are standout prints and image boxes. You’ll have plently of time to ask any questions, to hold up images to different walls in your own home to see what sizes will work best and enough time to pick out your favorites. The collections on the following page have been put together to give you the absolute best quality product for the best value. Those collections are available at Session Premiere Night only. No need to worry if the products in the offered collections don’t fit your needs, all products are available a la carte as well and are 20% off on reveal night! The goal of Session Premiere Night is to finalize your order so we can get your prints and products to you as soon as possible. To help make this stress free it’s a great idea to take a look through all of the different products and collections so you can go into Session Premiere Night with an idea of what might work best for you. Once you’ve seen your images that may change but it’s always good to have an idea when we get started! When all the fun of the Session Premiere Night night is over, you’ll have a short wait before you’ll have those images in your hands! Digital files purchased will be made available within 24 hours and you can expect to have your prints and products in your home within 2-4 weeks. When everything is in we’ll schedule a time that I can hand deliver everything to make sure it gets there safely!
“Completely magical connection with Amy and my daughter. It was such a fascinating experience and we left feeling so fantastic, like the princess in the pictures! Would give 10 stars but 5 was the highest I could go. Keep up the amazingness Amy!� -K.L.

“Photography is a way of feeling, of touching, of loving. What you have caught on film is captured forever… It remembers little things, long after you have forgotten everything.” – Aaron Siskind
