Hello sweet peeps. Well, you are going to see some updates and changes here on the JGblog. I am looking forward to Spring and a bunch of new faces and funky places to shoot. Watch the blog for an upcoming contest. (just a hint that it is going to be about location) Have a great weekend!!
Alrighty peeps—here is the sale for New Years! Come on, only 7 days left! (‘cuz it’s a 7 day sale! hehehehe…)
I know, I know…the blog posts are pretty cheezy. My mind works like a song and there is always some lyric that comes to mind when I am posting. 
I am letting you all know that it is just about time for the 2008 season to come to a close. If you have any prints or gifts still pending or waiting to be picked up, the latest date to get these picked up will be Friday at 5pm. I will be leaving town and will not be back in the office until after the 1st of the year! I have had the most blessed season and meeting so many new clients has been fabulous! Thank you so much and I look forward to talking to you all soon! Keep your bloglines up to date and watch for the new year postings. I am so excited to plan and vision cast and then present all the fun new things to you all.
Have a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
Ok, so….now that I have screamed this in my house and typed it out how I feel, I have to let many of you know that you are NOT getting my emails. All the galleries are up and posted and I have emailed you the link (last week). Unfortunately, I am coming to find out that my emails are not being received. Correct…this is a HORRIBLE situation. If you are one of those not getting any information from me, I am so sorry and I have no idea why. Let me know (yes, you can call me–I am really not mean I was trying to be overly productive and it bit my hiney! ) Let me know what I can do to get your questions answered! Have a great night and don’t freak! We are still good on time!
So, I am crazy busy, as you all know. I want to remind you that the very best way to get ahold of me is through email. I am still full time Mommy so being on the phone is not near as positive experience as many may think. Please check out the blog often for I am updating on there and if you need anything, just shoot me an email. Thanks so much!! I am getting things in right and left, yours could be next. Watch your email!!
I just want to give a quick update. Orders have been made, the lab is working hard, I am working my hiney bone off, you are all (really…all of you) are being patient, and it is all coming together. If you are waiting for your gallery to be up, it will be up in the next two days. Just watch on the blog or for an email to say that it is up and ready to view. I am working until the wee hours of the night to bring them to you as soon as possible! All the JGP shoots are done so all that it is left to do is wrap up these last few gallery posts, a few little orders, packaging, and some ordering appointments. It is going to all happen before the big December 15th goal!!! Thanks for being so great this year! Have a great Wednesday night!!
As you can see at the time of this post that it is after 11pm Monday night. The count down has begun and those of you waiting for your galleries, don’t worry….we have just a few more days until they will be up for review. You will have your gallery to view by December 5th at the latest! Once this is available, you will be able to choose your image for your Christmas cards and gifts and then place your order. Great thing is the lab is working super fast and so we are working as fast as possible to get these out for you to have in decent time for Christmas! Check out the goodie bag and the printed items so that when your proofs are available half the battle is won!! Thanks for your patience in this crazy season!!
OH….also, watch for the new soltered jewelry to be displayed soon! So fun!
So, as many of you know, life is crazy insane at JGP! I appreciate your patience, and want to give you some time lines so that we are all on the same page. I want to promise everyone a few things first…I work in order of appointments and then by first to order. What this means is: I begin editing each clients photos in order of their shoot. After they are posted, gallery given an ordering appointment takes place. Orders are then placed once payment is received. If you have placed an order, but your payment has not been received, then once that is done, your order will process. A lot is going on and with so many shoots, orders, etc. The typical time frame of 2 weeks etc. is a little off. I will however shoot, edit, post and order to the fastest of my ability. Everyone is anxious and most are patient. Just want you to know what goes on behind the scenes and with 35+ clients things get a little crazy. So….all of that being said. No worries on your galleries or orders, just a friendly reminder on patience. Please remember orders begin when payment has arrived to me.
DEADLINES:
Thanks again for your patience. Holidays are so much fun but I know that we are all on deadlines. I am hoping to get your photos, orders, and gifts all done in a very quick and timely manner.
If you have any questions, please let me know!
So, I have to admit that I love Facebook. I have not been on for a few weeks but that is only a brief break for the craziness of the busy season. What I am thinking is I want to offer images for you to place of Facebook after you have placed your order. I am just trying to figure out the dynamics of how to offer this. I think what I will be doing is this. It will depend on your order tier. If you order $150.00 or less you will receive 1 low resolution image, $150.00-$300.00 you will receive 2 low resolution images; $300.00-$500.00 4 low resolution images; $500.00-$750.00 you will receive 5 low resolution images and if your order is over $1000.00 you will have 24 low resolution images given to you complimentary for use on your facebook page or digital frames. These will be images of your choice.
**These will not come with a release form for any type of printing to be done and are solely for facebook, myspace, or digital framing. Please let me know if I can answer more of your questions regarding this!
