Christmas Gift Certificates at a Significant Savings – What a DEAL!

Better than Black Friday or Small Business Saturday or Cyber Monday

It’s Terrific Tuesday

An opportunity for SIGNIFICANT savings on a Footprints on the Heart Portrait Gift Certificate

Think back to all your Christmases, and all your Christmas gifts, both given and received.

Which ones stick out to you?  Which ones do you think are best remembered?

Is it the plastic stuff from Megalo Mart?  Is it the Cheese Straightener that happened to be on sale as a door buster special on Black Friday (no wonder they had it marked down by 50%)?

If you’re like me, I’m guessing not.  The ones that stand out in my mind are those very personal gifts, the ones only you can give; the ones that touched your heart, or with which you touched someone elses heart.

So how do you do that?

Well, for most of us, what we value most in the world are the people that we love.

We could do without all the material possessions as long as we have those we love around us.

So, what could you give that is both very personal, something only you could give, and at the same time touches the most tender spot in the heart of those receiving it?  Something that will be remembered and indeed enjoyed forever; something that grows in value as time goes by.

Hmmm.  Lets see.  Footprints on the Heart.  Hmmm.

Hey, I know – how about a beautifully designed and created portrait of those very loved ones, or even better of the relationships that is so important to that person you’re puzzling over.

Now, if you want to have a family portrait created INCLUDING said gift recipient, you can’t do that before Christmas and still keep it a surprise.  So, we’ve got a special offer just for you.

Buy a gift certificate for a one hour or a two hour session to be done any time in 2013 (or even after, but do you really want to wait THAT long?), and you’ll receive:

  • 50% discount on session fees AND
  • 20% discount on ala carte print orders (10% on pre-discounted packages)

Here’s the details:

This offer is good from Tuesday, November 29th through December 15th

We’re closed on Black Friday, Small Business Saturday, and Cyber Monday.  That’s why we created Terrific Tuesday!

And because of the significant savings, we’re only offering 20 of these certificates.

Certificates can be used for any of our Footprints On The Heart sessions – family, grandparents and grandchildren, brothers and sisters, Pawprints on the Heart etc.  Baby Steps are not included (we’ll have a separate offer for these).

One Hour Sessions – $297.50 -

Normally $335 with a $260 print credit.  But that’s only the beginning of your savings.

Christmas Reprint Special – 25% discount

Brothers and Sisters portraitTired of scratching your head on what to get those closest to you on your Christmas list?  Parents, grandparents, children, brothers and sisters- anyone who loves you?

Relax, you’ve got Christmas taken care of.  What more personal gift can you give than that portrait you had us create for you earlier this year?  It’s a personal, thoughtful gift that will be enjoyed for many years to come.

To make it easy, we have a special offer for you.

Order reprints of previously ordered images between November 1 and December 15th, and you’ll receive a 25% discount off our normal prices.

Now of course there are some conditions.

  • This is a REPRINT sale.  You must use images we’ve already retouched and from which you’ve ordered prior to the beginning of this sale.
  • Orders must be placed prior to December 15th.  After that date, they become a rush order and go back to full prices.
  • Discounts apply to our normal ala carte prices.  Pre-discounted packages do not qualify, since they’re already discounted.
  • Any of our normal sessions qualify – Baby Steps, Footprints On The Heart or That’s So You.  Mini sessions do not apply since they’re so darn cheap to begin with!

To order, simply call the studio at 503-588-0902, or email us at info@encorephotography.com, and let us know what you’d like to order.  We’ll get them rushed to the lab, and back in plenty of time for Christmas.

Pre-Designed Christmas Card Special

For a number of years, we’ve offered custom designed Christmas cards using images from your session. These cards are $125 for the first 25, because they require several hours of design time on our part.

But recognizing that this may be beyond what many of our clients need, we’re offering for the first time this year pre-designed Christmas cards as an option. You simply pick the design you want from the gallery below, tell us which of your images you want us to use, and you’ll have your cards in about a week.

We’ve chosen mostly designs that use one image, and many of the cards have options that will accommodate either a horizontal or vertical version. We have additional designs, and some use multiple images. If you don’t see what you need, just ask.
