We are a newly opening studio in the Durham Region that will be fully operational by late fall/winter 2007. At this time our studio is in build process and we are very excited about the progress. Right now we are able to provide location photography of a wide range and wedding shoots.
What's offered
Here you will get information about what exactly it is that we offer, and on the pages to follow you will get examples of the work that we do. We provide photography of a wide range, but our main focus is helping you capture your memories in a way you will always cherish. The photo aspect of what we do is just the beginning, we also take the memories you provide us and combine them into an occasion appropriate Photo Story.
Should you have any questions, please feel free to contact us at the email address provided, or on the questions page.
It first starts with your input, we want to include you in the process of your images. You may have a pose that you were in when you were younger and would like to see your little one posed the same way. You may have a decided upon place but no idea of posing. We like to hear our clients creative input, it helps us capture photographs you will love.
When we shoot our photographs we take multiple shots of the same pose or image. This insures that we capture the best expressions and eye directions. For group photos it helps eliminate one person not smiling, two people with their eyes closed, or a few not looking in the right direction. Out of the multiple images taken the best one is chosen for that pose.
Photography Services
Creative Concepts offers in studio and out studio photography. Different people like different styles and we hope to be able to provide you with exactly what you desire.
We provide black and white, and “glamour” style photography for girlsand adults. We shoot our family pictures in studio or out. For the adults, we also do boudoirs and couples, tastefully of course.
Babies are only babies for a short precious time, let us capture those beautiful memories for you. We will photograph as young as 7 days, and do in or out studio photo shoots.
Looking for something a little more natural… let us go to the park with you on a play date with your child, some of the best memories are caught in their raw, natural, un-posed form. As your playing in the sand, sharing quality time with your child. While your walking down the beach, barefooted holding your lovers hand. On location photography offers the comfort of a setting you choose, but the option of traditional backgrounds if you like. Our studio travels.
We also photograph special occasions such as engagements, weddings, baptisms, and even family reunions.
We love animals and are willing to photograph pets*of all types. If you are interested in having your pet done, please contact us so we may discuss type of animal, and poses available as safety and a comfortable atmosphere for all, including your pet is very important to us.
The What's New page will keep you informed of new images, frames, or effects we may add. There is also a calendar so that you may see ahead of time if we are available for the day you require.
By adding just the right flare or sparkle, your photos become works of art. We offer many different kinds of enhancements to add to your images. Love Sepia? Vignettes? How about the black and whites that have just a little color accent? We have the ability to incorporate many of your favourite effects into your pictures.
We offer many frames and collages to add to your images as well as graphic embellishments. Instead of just having your photo, you can have a layout that suits the occasion...birthday, wedding, birth, or just fun in the sun. View the Enhancement page to see what we currently have available.
Viewing your photos
Viewing your images can be done in a number of ways, We can come back to you, sit and show you personally your images, and the possibilities that can happen with a black and white, or a lens flare. Or we can send you a link that you may share with your family and friends for 14 days so you may view and decide in private the images best liked by you. For boudoirs and couples only a private viewing in your home is acceptable to us as your privacy is my utmost concern. We will discuss which method is best for you at the time of photography.
We will be offering in studio viewing when the studio is complete.
Images you already have
We offer a number of services to images you already have in your posession*. Whether you have the digital file or the image in print, you can have the effects you desire. We are able to take your photos, and do virtually everything we are able to with digital images.
We offer photo restoration dependant on the damge done to the image. Photos over time fade, and sometimes even accidents happen to cause damage. We take the utmost care in restoring your precious photograph. Everything is done digital so no changes are made to the actual print itself. With our advanced technology we aim to restore your image to its former beauty*. To see some images we have restored see the Before and After page.
At this time we are only able to work with printed images up to 8 X 10 size.
Photo Stories of your memories
You provide the media… Pictures, not just digital either, even if the photo is on print we are able to use it. Home movies, VHS, 8MM, DVD, and digital formats. All you have to do then is provide us with a time line of major events, accomplishments, and cherished moments. You will receive a DVD movie with full sound effects and menu. With the right music and style, your pictures and video clips have become their own motion picture, perfect for any occasion.
Imagine your parents 50th wedding anniversary… you give them a movie chronicling their life and marriage to one another. Your daughter’s 16th or 21st birthday, and Mother’s Day. Even for a special memorial.
All content and music is suggested and approved by you. Even the finished product is subject to your approval as your happiness with your memories is our main focus. Should you have no ideas of music backgrounds we can always offer suggestions appropriate to the occasion.
