1 Portraits for a Lifetime ARCHIBALDSTUDIOS.COM

2 Our Philosophy Photography has been our passion for over 20 years. Our philosophy is simple; it s about people. More specifically, it s about you. A portrait should capture that element that is uniquely you ~ your style, your personality, your passions. Photographs are one of the few heirlooms we have to pass on to future generations ~ a visual representation of who you are. Think about that trunk of old family photos in your attic or basement. What an amazing gift to be able to see that twinkle in your great great grandmother s eye, or that dimple in your grandfather s cheek that is now on the cheek of your child. What will your descendants see in your portrait hundreds of years from now? A family owned and operated business, we value the importance of relationships. In order to achieve that timeless portrait, it s vital that you be in an atmosphere where you feel comfortable and encouraged to be yourself. Our belief is that quality portraiture cannot be accomplished at your neighborhood department store or one size fits all studio that doesn t allow for creativity or individuality. You deserve special attention, and the time it takes to create that portrait of a lifetime. In today s modern age of digital photography, it is more important than ever to maintain the highest standards as a professional portrait photography studio. We place a high value on education and continue to further our knowledge through formal education, as well as training in new industry advancements and technology. We use the latest digital equipment and software, and all of our prints are processed using professional grade paper with a special luster finish. The goal is not to change your subjects, but for the subject to change the photographer ~Author Unknown

3 Senior Portraits Congratulations ~ This is YOUR YEAR! Homecoming, prom, exams, college applications, Senior trips, graduation, open house celebrations Your Senior Year of High School is a year you will never forget ~ and your senior portrait should last forever, too! At Archibald Studios, we believe that EVERY Senior deserves special attention. We will take the time to design a portrait session around YOUR interests and YOUR ideas. We believe your Senior portrait should reflect who you are, and should be a celebration of all you have achieved. In recent years, it has become a trend with many high schools to require that Senior yearbook photos be a standard school portrait. While this may achieve a school s desire for consistency and conformity, we believe being a Senior is all about individuality and your personality, and you should have a keepsake to represent this once in a lifetime achievement. We ll work with you to create a portrait that captures the REAL you ~ not the yearbook you. With a wide variety of professional print options, folios, leather bound albums, custom designed keepsake books, graduation cards and announcements, we can create the complete Senior Year package.

4 Families and Children Creating a Family Heirloom Family. Such a small word with a life changing impact. Our families teach us, guide us, inspire us, and are there for us our entire lives. A family portrait can retain those memories, even as life changes. Whether it s capturing the precious moments and anticipation of expectant parents, the innocence of a newborn, the precociousness of a child, or the loving embrace of a grandparent, a professional family portrait is an heirloom for all generations. We will work with you to achieve the heirloom portrait that captures the uniqueness of your family. Whether it is fun and spontaneous, or serene and formal, your portrait will be treasured for generations to come. There are often places or things that have special meaning, and often become like a part of the family. Whether it s your home, the family cabin, a special campsite or other favorite family location, why not bring that special touch into your portrait? We will take your portrait at the location of your choosing. (travel charges apply outside the Twin Cities area)
