Packaging, Products and Presentation

6/3/2017

Photo packaging
It has been just over 4 years now since I set up my newborn and family photography business in Poole,Dorset. 
Over these few years the way that I present and package my work has changed significantly. 
The biggest change has been of me previously providing a CD of digital images to now providing a USB. Over just a couple of years technology has changed so much, that now not everyone has a disc drive on their computer. In fact not everyone has a computer, but a USB can be used on most well know tablets or smart televisions, so I decided this was the best option to go forward with.

You could say I have somewhat gone "backwards" with presentation by providing prints with my standard and top packages. In a digital age, I think we are all starting to realise how important it is to print our photographs off rather than having them stay as just digital files forever. Whilst I realise that most clients do print off their photographs and put them up on their walls, there were always a few people that would just keep the digital files and never get round to doing anything with them. Bearing this in mind, at the beginning of 2016 I started to provide a print of each digital image with my standard and top packages. I do still continue to offer a basic package of a few digital images sent via email as a starting point, but almost everyone that books this package will go on to purchase a book or wall art from me aswell. There are of course exceptions to each situation, but I want to give these options to help keep my photography affordable to most that desire it. 
My current packaging, which has evolved over the last 4 years, reflects my brand and natural style. Where possible I use natural and recycled materials, which compliment the natural beautiful photographs that are contained within them. I am always researching new ideas to add to my packaging and it seems to be constantly changing, but only slightly, and always in keeping with my style.
For information on my pricing and photography packages that I offer , please visit my maternity photography, newborn photography or baby photography sections on my website. Or for information about the additional products that I offer alongside my photography packages please visit my products section here.

Hi Samantha, I love your natural style of photography and wish I'd done some photoshoot with you when my son was a baby. I think your packaging is beautiful and fits very well with your natural style. I think it's important to provide prints of the photos too, even in our digital age I like to print and frame photos and display them around the house, however, even more important as parent with a newborn I'd also like to give some prints away to grandparents and family so this is a great idea and the USB stick too. Well done for your beautiful photographs and packaging!

I think that it is great that you offer both options. When we got married having photos on disc was still quite new but we really wanted both. Photos to look at in an album but also to have playing as a slideshow if we want to.

I couldn't agree more. For our wedding I bought a disc only from the photographer as I wanted to design my own album the way that I wanted to , but it took me 4 years! ooooops!

I love this and think it is so lovely to provide prints! I have tried to ensure that every year, around the time of my kids birthday, I print off the best pictures we've taken from that year and do an album! I have to admit the last few years I've not done it, but this has reminded me of how important it is to print pictures and not just store them digitally!

What a great idea Debbie. I used to also do this, but since I had 2 children I just can't seem to find time anymore. I managed to make a summer holiday book 2 years ago, and plan to do something similar this year, or a years round up.

You are so right about printing. We had a messy photo shot a few years ago and I LOVE the photos but they are all on the laptop instead of the wall which is a shame.
Beautiful presentation x
