Coming VERY soon! Password Protected Galleries & online Shopping Cart…

Posted by rgeitgey on 27th February 2008

Tuesday evening our son Adam came by to help me install our new clients’ gallery. You can reach the entrance to by clicking on the PhotoReflect button which was our original arrangement. Soon that button will say Clients. Tomorrow I will finish entering pricing information and get it ready for a test run. We have entered the Boothe family portraits into our new set-up and are tweaking it a bit. You will be able to click thumbnails on each to enlarge it for viewing. Each image has several options in addition to ordering. You can also leave a comment about the image. If you’d like an idea of how it would look in black & white (assuming that you are looking at a color image to start with) just click black and white and you will view the image in black and white. Of course, I must tell you when we convert a color image to black and white for orders it will most likely be much nicer than the preview image because we don’t just “click” to change images to black and white. We use our digital darkroom with a zillion options and subtle tones to create black and whites. Professional printing by our lab service also adds to the beauty of the final product. Wednesday I will post a sample gallery and the password will be “sample” so you can see how it works. I should say “today” as it’s 1 am. We will be adding a “FINE ART” gallery if you’d like to order prints for your home or office decor.

Updates:

  • 3 March The personal Gallery section is working. You still click on the PhotoReflect button, or you can click here now working. We still some prices to add. There are some limitations on what we can do with this version of the program. We are looking at upgrading the version in the future. I’ll post a notice when the “Fine Art” gallery is open that any one is welcome to visit, but it will still require a password because that’s how the client gallery works.

It’s Past Valentine’s Day ….

Posted by rgeitgey on 26th February 2008

 

Holiday Greetings from Georgia:  Ruth & Warren Geitgey, Adam Geitgey, Julie, Peterson, and Ford DargerI did not get my own family’s Christmas Cards out. I thought I would post the image here to share with you. We actually had another image we planned to use for the card and I was all set to order that before Thanksgiving, but life got busy. So the photographer’s family goes without a photographic greeting card made up on time. With Julie & Ford and grandson scheduled to visit us during the Christmas Holidays I decided I would a two sided card and put the original photograph made during the summer on one side and a Christmas time portrait of all of us on the other and get them out around New Years. That is plenty close enough for Holiday greetings isn’t it? As a matter of fact I actually received quite a few holiday cards during January. Fast forward to February 23 and I still have just completed the card and now wonder whether I ought to make them up and send them out. I’m looking for advise, so please drop me a comment below.

Here are some images from the park where the above portrait was made. You will soon be able to order reprints of these images

on our Fine Art Gallery Section of our website.
