Step 1 - First, take a look at the Examples Page to choose the style you like, along with the size and layout. Decide about how many pictures you'd like to include, and whether you'd like it color, B&W, or tepia. My suggested size is either 8x10 or 11x14, but if you would like to alter that, please email me.
Step 2 - Then go through your pictures and choose the ones you'd like to include in the collage. You can use up to 15 photos, but remember the more photos you include, the smaller each one will be. Please also specify if you have a larger photo that you would like centered in the middle (as seen in some of the samples). For the best quality, take your digital photos on a high quality setting and send to me as attachments with your email.
Step 3 - You would then email me the pictures, along with any other ideas you have, including any text you'd like to include. If you don't have your photos in digital format, you could either have them scanned first and send me the digital files by email, or mail them to me on a CD. If you'd like to mail the pictures for me to scan, I can do this for a small additional fee. You can send these to my P.O. Box listed on the Contact Page.
Below are some ideas for colors or patterns for backgrounds. You can specify one of these (by number) if you'd like one, or you're welcome to choose any color or background (such as from your own photo).
After creating your collage, I would then email you a copy of the proof for your final agreement before printing. You can have up to 2 revisions at no extra charge. The final printing will be a high quality photo print that you can have matted and framed for a beautiful end result!
