This post is about the various products I offer for my photos.  many people have commented about how fast their prints arrived and I have had the same success.  The vendor I use for prints supplies prints and such to many professionals and their quality is second to none.  I am entering two pics at the Champlain Valley Fair this year and had them printed at 16x24 size on metallic paper.  If you haven't tried metallic paper yet, do so.  They are just stunning!  You'll be able to check them out in the art gallery at the Fair from August 25th to Sept 3.  

A tip for anyone ordering prints.  If you want extra protection and to give them a real quality look, specify lustre coating when you order.  It gives them a satin sheen that really makes them pop. 

Also, my site managing company has added a new vendor that produces screen printed items from digital images.  In addition to prints and such, I now offer book marks, keychains and Iphone and Ipad cases that can be printed with your favorite photos. 

Finally, I've gotten a few requests for CD's with bulk images on them.  People have asked about picking out their favorite images and being able to obtain a CD with all of them on it.  Well, I now offer that, but in digital form minus the CD.  If this is something you'd like, here's the instructions:

1. register an account on my site
2. Go to the top right of the gallery page and click 'select photos'.  A series of black dots will appear on the pictures.  Just click the ones you want, then click 'add to favorites'. 
3. At the top left, you'll see 'my selection', click this and then 'edit my selection'. 
4. A page will come up with all of the photos you have selected.  Then click 'send to...' in the top left. 
5. There will be a pop up that says 'send to photographer'.  Fill this info out and the ones you selected will be sent to me as a notification. 
6. Now go to the Home Page, select Investment, then Purchase Bulk Images.
7. Hover over the 'Buy" button at the top right and then click 'select product.
8. A window will pop up and ask you to choose either up to 50 images ($30.00) or up to 100 images ($55.00).  Choose the one you want with the number of images you selected before and then follow the checkout process.  You can pay with Paypal that will allow you to use a credit card if you choose. 
9. Once I am notified payment has been made, I will send an email with the password for a gallery created specially with your selected images. You'll be able to download them from there. 

I can also send this in the traditional form on a CD if you'd like and if you want this option, specify this in the comments section when you send your favorites to me.  The images will be in a low resolution format (72 dpi) suitable for using on a computer screen.  Since I normally charge .99 cents for each picture, this is a great way to get all of the images you like from an event or or whole year!

Thanks everyone... see you soon!
