Portraits can be incredibly expensive. As high-end cameras and lenses

become cheaper and more accessible, you may be tempted to slash your costs

by asking a friend or family member to take your shots. The money you save,

however, is very likely to leave you with regrets in the long run.

We bring to the table 20 years of

experience, not only in photography, but also

national advertising, professional retouching

and design. Yes, we do those trendy edits,

but we begin with sharp, professionally lit

and properly exposed photographs from

the beginning. If your portraits aren’t amazing

straight out of the camera, they won’t be

amazing with a lot of post processing. You

can depend on White Design to find that

defining quality that makes your portraits

unique and special.

A baby’s first year of life is the most monumental year of all. Each

day is filled with new discoveries and milestones. Capturing and documenting

these special moments is our goal. You will be amazed at how quickly your

baby changes and how incredibly fast the first year is gone. There is no better

way to remember these fleeting moments than through professional portraits.

That is why

we created the First Year Program as a way to commemorate this very special

first year of life. Our sessions are designed to be stress free and easy for you

and your precious baby. We understand that sometimes babies need time

to adjust to the environment, eat or take a break and cuddle with mom. You

won’t be rushed through your session-you and your baby can relax and enjoy

your portrait experience.

Pregnancy months are some of the most

beautiful times in woman’s life. She nurtures a new

unseen life inside her. It is a special time for any

expectant mother. No other event can evoke

such feeling of unparalleled internal happiness.

Maternity photography is the best way to

preserve these moments forever.

White Design maternity portraits are flattering

and tastefully created for the mother to be.

Some mothers choose to showcase their bare

baby bump, while others opt for a more modest

session. Which ever option fits you and your

personality, we will create beautiful portraits to

forever save this special time of your life. You

are free to wear any thing you choose, however

solid colors work wonderfully

for these sessions. I also have a wide variety of

drapes, wraps and beautiful belly bands.

I usually recommend that women do their maternity

shoots between 35-37 weeks. Just keep in mind

that babies do come in their own time and it is

not uncommon for them to come two to three

weeks early-so don’t wait too long.

You are more than welcome to bring your

husband, significant other or siblings to include

in your shoot. This is the beginning to another

chapter in your family and we know that you will

want to include everyone involved.

Congratulations and enjoy this beautiful time in

your life!

kids&familyphotographyemotions, personalities & dynamics

Since I was a very young

girl, I’ve always been drawn to

pictures, be they in magazines,

books, photo albums or even

on the walls of local businesses.

There’s just something about

the amalgam of colors, shapes,

faces and light coming together

in perfect harmony that I find

irrevocably fascinating.

To me, portrait photography is all about capturing emotions, personalities and the dynamics of various relationships. And when I photograph you and your loved ones, that’s always my goal.

I’ve always believed that the best photos are those that are hard to look away from. The kind

that catch your eye and make you want to study every tiny pixel. And when you think you’ve seen

it all, you have to look back just once more to make sure you didn’t miss anything. Those are the

kinds of photos I strive to take every single day. Photos that are engaging, compelling and worthy

of displaying proudly in your home.

What I mostly loved photographing, though, was people. And that’s still true today.

People are so interesting and I love capturing their spirit on film or in today’s world, digital; my goal

is convey their feelings, thoughts and emotions and preserve them forever in a photograph.

You know what I’m talking about. That twinkle of deep affection in a father ’s eye when he looks

over to his wife holding their first born. The calm serenity that overcomes an expecting woman as

she gently touches her swollen belly. The heat between a newly engaged couple who can’t seem

to stop staring at each other. The commanding presence of a high school senior who’s posing with

enough confidence for their entire graduating class. Or that ounce of mischief in a brother ’s sly grin

as he looks up at his older sister.

Days are fleeting and there is a comfort in knowing that years from now you will have beautiful

portraits to bring you back to this special time.

Being a high school senior means going to class all year long, studying for tests, taking exams but also includes fun stuff too like taking

your final high school year pictures.

Your time for senior pictures has come! I understand that moms

and seniors have completely different ideas about what they would like

to have in a senior shoot and I strive to cover both. I’ll make sure that

mom gets those traditional portraits she wants and that you get portraits

that completely express who you are.

Planning Your Session: Something Casual: Show us your everyday style—

something that is unique and says “Hey world, this is me!” Identity Wear: Bring

your letterman jacket, cheer leading outfit, band uniform, or sports team

uniform. Show Your Fun Side: Leather or lace, grunge or club, show some

attitude and have fun!

It ’s your Senior Year have fun, relax, enjoy and choose White Design for your

unique Senior Portraits.

The engagement session appears to be

taking on a life of its own with today’s photography-

savvy couples. While the purpose of the session

remains the same, what can be done with the

images afterwards is limitless.

Photographers and couples alike find that the

engagement session is a great way to learn

to work together. Most photographers have

learned the hard way that some couples are

uncomfortable or freeze in front of the camera.

Some couples are conditioned to smile every

time a lens is turned their way, while others blink.

This session helps photographers iron out those

kinks—learning what the best way is to approach

each couple, how best to direct or guide, and

what kind of interaction works best.

In turn, you get a chance to work more intimately

with the photographer who will be with you for

the duration of your wedding day. For many

people the only time they employ the services of

a professional photographer is at their wedding.

If their wedding photographs are important to

them couples will spend a great deal of time

choosing who will shoot their wedding and are

willing to spend large sums of money to make

sure it is done well. This is an important step to

establishing a relationship of trust that is integral

for photographers to best do their job. Openly

communicating about what helps you relax or

what makes you feel the most comfortable is very

important at this stage. Your photographer wants

to know how to best work with you to create the

kinds of images you expect.

Be prepared to feel beautiful, feel sexy and look amazing. There is

absolutely nothing to be nervous about so relax and enjoy your session.

Feel free to bring a friend and make it a girls day or night. Whether you are

bold and outgoing or shy and bashful, we’ll customize a session just for you.

And if you need a bit of help deciding what to wear and bring to a session,

maybe these suggestions will help. • Slips • Button down white man’s shirt •

Something relating to his hobbies & interest • Corset/bustier • A robe • Silk

shorts • Heels • Jewelry • Matching bra + panty set • Neglige/teddy/body

suit • Scarves • Team Jerseys

You will have a great time and you will love your photos!

Don’t forget the most important thing… Relax. Remember that I have years of

experience posing and working with lighting and camera angles to emphasize

your best features and minimize anything less than perfect.

If you choose a package that includes a bridal shoot this will greatly reduce the stress the day of the wedding in addition to giving you many more and creative photographs. We try to have these done a month or so before the wedding in order for you to have a framed canvas displayed at your wedding reception.

A bridal portrait session is the perfect way to have a ‘dress rehearsal’ of

everything you’ve planned for your wedding day. The wedding gown, flowers, hair,

make-up, and all the other little things you’ve worked so hard to plan for, can be

‘tested’ together to make sure that there are no surprises on that special day. A perfect

opportunity to take great images that you will cherish forever. Bridal Portraits are popular

for displaying at the wedding registry table, at the reception sign-in table, custom sign-

in books or you can turn one into a signature print for everyone to ‘leave their mark’ at

the reception.

When your wedding guests walk into your reception facility, and they view your finished

bridal portrait for the first time, I want you to hear your guests gasp in delight, see their

eyes open wide, and watch their jaws hit the floor. I want the bridal portrait I create of

you to put a smile on your face, and a tear in your mother ’s eye.

Bridal portraits are generally taken two to three months before the wedding, so that

there is time to have a completed portrait on display at your reception. However, it ’s

never too late to have your bridal portrait made; formal sittings involving both the bride

and the groom are common up to several months following your wedding.

On your one-year anniversary, you and your love will sit back on your couch. Hand in hand, you will pull out the photo’s of your wedding day. As the special

memories flood your eyes, will you see that most important day of your life as beautiful art created for a lifetime of remembrance?

The food will be eaten, the cake will be gone, the flowers will have wilted, but the memories are forever.

timelessly beautiful

As your photographer, I recognize that this is your special wedding day, and that all

attention should be centered on you and your future husband. Your wedding day is where dreams

and memories come together.

I want to capture your true radiance and the groom’s nervousness. I want to snap the photograph

of you leaning into your husband’s shoulder while you twirl your first steps as a married couple. These

captured moments can be remembered year after year as you pull out your wedding book and relive

those memories all over again.

Between choosing the exact shade of roses and tasting everything from cake to hordorerves, you’ve got your

hands full! Meeting caterers, florists, and musicians is tough enough, never mind negotiating the photographer

scene. I strive to make your experience as stress free and memorable as is could possibly be. I begin by going

over the time frame you are thinking about, and together we decide which package is the best fit for you.

At White Design & Photography we have several packages for our brides to choose. Beginning with a

basic day of shooting with a hardcover proof book and online proofing to our largest package with

our premium storybooks, canvas portraits or fine art metal portraits, DVD of images with print release,

hardcover proof book and even a bridal and engagement session. Whatever your needs we have a

package for you or can custom design a package for your special day.

The most important decision in the portrait process is the selection of images for your

home. After your session we will set up a time for you to come into the studio and view your

portraits. Coming into the studio to place your order is the best choice in that you can view

your images on our calibrated screen and see actual samples of finishes, sizes and products. A

16x20 may sound enormous at first, but above a couch or fireplace can seem small.

Before ordering your portraits please take a walk through your home and make notes of where

you would like to see new art work and make a list of parents, grandparents, family and friends.

For most clients, ordering is less of a science than an art, mixing fulfilling needs with getting

the many photos you fall in love with. When planning your order, I suggest that you use this form

to aid in the ordering process. Walk through your house and think about where you would like to

display your portraits. Above furniture, along staircases, down hallways, on sofa tables, shelves, in

a wall grouping, etc.

Decide whether you would like traditionally framed prints, gallery wraps, standouts, metal prints,

stretched canvas or canvas mounted to board.. Take some time to think about who you would like

to give gift portraits and specialty products. Grandparents, parents, aunts, uncles, cousins, siblings,

etc. Then decide what specialty products you would like to have for yourself. Photo books, photo

boxes, accordion books, etc.

We offer many different carefully selected specialty products that you are sure to love. Our specialty products include invitations, custom story books, custom image boxes, folios, photo jewelry, metallic prints, fine art metal portraits & canvas portraits, that you are sure to cherish for years to come.

our productsWhat we offer

Metal PrintsModern. Edgy. Beautiful. Brushed aluminum Metal Prints show your images in an incomparable way. We start with metal, add a coat of opaque white ink to the surface, and then print your image on top. This process truly takes your photography to the highest level in unique presentations.

Single & Double Weight MatboardMounting your print on matboard not only gives the print extra support, but it also helps preserve the value of the print over time.

Canvas on MatboardGive your prints gallery-level quality with our canvas bonded to matboard. The canvas provides the rich texture for your print and the matboard gives it a sturdy backing that prepares it for framing or other types of display.

Stretched CanvasFor even more texture and durability have your print pressed onto canvas and then wrapped on a wooden stretcher frame. Our stretcher frames are 3/4” thick. Your image does not wrap around the stretcher frame with this product. Please see Gallery Wraps for an image wrapped canvas product.

Gallery WrapsBring a contemporary edge to your images, and create a high end art piece worthy of any museum wall. The frameless presentation of a Gallery Wrap is ideal for those with gallery-quality expectations.

Standout WrapsAdd dimension and sophistication with this unique wall art piece. Printed on photographic paper and laminated with a mounting block on the back, Print Wraps easily create that gallery look inside your home.
