July Special

Wow, I can't believe that June is about gone, but the calender doesn't lie.

Our July Special is 48 free wallets (one pose) added to any Senior Portrait Package. This is a $39.50 value. This really is an extra bonus when you add the fact that we don't charge any sitting or session fees. Everything you pay goes towards your final print order. I must be working for free....hmm. The studio will be closed for vacation from June 29th until July 5th. We will be back bright and early on the 6th to a fairly full schedule. If you want to make an appointment just give us a call at 770-253-4821 or email us at shapirophotography@newnanbiz.net and be sure to include your name and phone number and we will get back to you on Monday, July 6th. Check out our Facebook page at Bob Shapiro Photography.

A Word About Black & White

I love a great Black & White print. The first roll of film I ever shot was a roll of B&W which I then processed and printed. I never failed to have a darkroom at my disposal from that time. The skills I learned in all of those years of darkroom work have served me well. In this digital age, it is easy for just about anyone to produce an "OK" B&W image. It is another thing to be able to produce a "quality" B&W image. One that includes all of the tonal range of a traditional film B&W print. It's not as easy as just pushing a button in some computer program, but then, most things worth having are not easy. Skill and experience still count.

Thanks, see you again.

A word about Senior Portraits

Just something for you seniors (or parents of seniors) to remember. I understand ECHS seniors have been told they must go to the school photographer for their yearbook portrait. This is not true. Your public schools cannot restrict your choice of vendors. You can have Senior Portraits done at the studio of your choice (hopefully here). Don't think that just because someone calls themselves "The Official School Photographer" that you have to go there. You can spend your money anywhere you want. I have been supplying Senior Portraits to our local high school yearbooks for 29 years and they have always been happily accepted for publication.
