This is an unprecedented and scary time in the world. Cases of Covid and deaths continue to rise in Manitoba.
Things improved in the summer and I was able to open my studio and do some wonderful portraits, but now that can't happen. Our case numbers in Manitoba are too high and the cost would be too great if my clients or I became ill. I'm happy that I was able to do some fall sessions outside, but the weather isn't cooperating to do that now in November.
So things are slow.
I miss photographing newborns. I haven't felt that it was safe to do newborn pictures at any time since the spring. I have newborn outfits that I haven't used and new Christmas backdrops that I can't use. I know that many businesses are suffering and it is best to close shop. It is better to be safe.
GIFT CERTIFICATE SALE
If you are looking for a Christmas gift for someone on your list, why not consider a gift certificate for photography? And to help you with that, I am offering a gift certificate sale.
For a limited time all gift certificates will be 20% off. That means if you buy someone a $300 gift certificate, it would cost $240; a savings of $60. For the $240 that you would pay, the recipient would receive the session plus $220 worth of products, such as 4 8x10s or a couple of 16x20s.
The gift certificate would be valid for all of 2021.
It's an easy gift option for you and you wouldn't need to leave your home to purchase it. I could email the gift certificate to you or print it and put it into the mail for you.
Don't delay. This offer is good until Dec. 10th. Get your Christmas shopping done now and support a local business.
Photo Restoration
Another great Christmas gift idea is to have some old faded photographs restored. Here are some examples of pictures that I've restored.
It's amazing how much information can be restored in old photographs!
Estimates for photo restoration are based on how much time it would take me to restore your photo and would depend on how much damage there is in the original print.
This is another gift that you would not need to leave your house to purchase. The original could be mailed to me or you could send me a digital copy by email. I would mail the restored print back to you. It would be a very safe and simple procedure.
