B-E-A-utiful Canvases! | Product Spotlight

Earlier this week we showed you some images about one of our favorite ways to display your images, with our coffeetable albums! And if you recall….I promised a feature on our OTHER favorite :) So…here it is!

I have three words for you…gallery wrapped canvases. Um, GORGEOUS! What is a gallery wrapped canvas, you ask? Well, let me show you!

THIS is a gallery wrap! This is our sample canvas, a beautiful shot of Sarah and Braden. It is a beautiful 2′x3′ canvas, with the image wrapped around a 1.5 inch deep stretcher frame. The image wraps all the way around the edges, so need for a frame!

Check out the gorgeous texture on a canvas from Mandy and Matt’s wedding!

And the incredible texture and detail!

One of the really awesome things about the canvases is that they come completely ready to hang. All the hardware is included and installed, all you have to do is find something to hang it on!

I love them! They have such a clean look, with a modern touch! And, I like to describe them as art for your wall, that you happen to be in haha. Or, as Paul so eloquently put it when he observed the unwrapping of our sample canvas, “When you said canvas picture, I didn’t know you meant you stole something from an art museum!” :) Good times.

Our canvas producer uses only the highest quality of materials. The ink is estimated to have a lifespan of 60  years, and the UV protectant effectively doubles that! Incredible! We are all about providing things to our clients that will last for generations, and that can become beautiful heirlooms. Like our album company, our canvas provider is also Green! NO OBA’s, biodegradeable coatings, and the wood frame comes from USA reforestable farms.Canvases are also available in pretty much every single size you could dream up!

If you just can’t wait to have one of these beautiful pieces from YOUR session, or if you just have questions, feel free to contact us! I hope you are all having a WONDERFUL, beautiful week!

And…bonus! Emily+Chris just sent me some images of what they’ve done with THEIR (2′x3′) canvas and pictures! So exciting :) We so have the best friends and clients ever!

First, just their canvas (and their kitchen table! and their awesome blue wall!)

Emily and Chris next to their canvas, to show some scale! (Notice Emily’s white “I’m going to be a dentist!” coat :) )

And the finished product, with the canvas flanked by two 24×16 prints! I LOVE IT!

Albums, Albums, Albums! | Product Spotlight

I LOVE coffeetable albums! LOVE them. I am not even exaggerating. They are most definitely one of my top two favorite ways of displaying pictures (more on the other later this week!), and I just had to show off some of the gorgeousness of Paige+Jason and Emily+Chris’s albums!

Aren’t they beautiful? I’m not kidding that I almost couldn’t pick up this stack of books. Ok maybe that’s a little bit of an exaggeration, but really, these books are STURDY! And, erm, ignore the dust on my kitchen table…

The bottom two books are 10×10, and the top book is an 8×8 parent album.

Check out this beautiful texture. Pretty much if you can think it up, it’s possible with these album covers. This is a vegan option leather called Smokey Mountain.

We can also do genuine leather covers. So soft and beautiful! This one is in a stunning chocolate brown and cream, which happened to be two of Paige and Jason’s wedding colors! It’s so easy to customize these books with your wedding colors, a neutral to match your living room, crazy textures, fabulous metal or acrylic colors, brocades….the choices are nearly limitless!

One of the incredible things about these books is that when opened, the spreads lay flat. The images can spread all the way across the crease of the book, without losing faces or details.

The images can also go all the way to the edge of the page with a full bleed, which makes for a huge impact! You can also see in this image how thick and sturdy the pages are. That white line under the picture is the thickness of one page!

All of our albums also feature a very clean, classic design that will always be in style. It is our goal to produce gorgeous, heirloom quality products that can be passed down for generations. These books definitely help us achieve that goal!

Our album company is also Green. From their website: “…prides itself in being a good citizen and one of the greenest album companies around. We take great care of our associates. We take great care in selecting the materials we use. We take great care in how we package our products and we even have an extensive office recycling program. How’s that for green?” Their efforts to be environment friendly even extend to the packing peanuts they use to ship the albums!

It really just doesn’t get any better than that :) Like I said, I love them! If you want more details about how to get your own, just shoot us an email at jenny@jennifercreed.com!

Announcing the brand new Jennifer Creed | Photographer!

Hey everyone!

So, I have pretty much been dying with excitement the last couple months in preparation for the launch of my new business! Image Jolie by Jenny is now Jennifer Creed Photographer! I am so excited to see where this journey has brought me so far and where God will continue to lead! Lots of big changes are already completed, with a few more things to be finished up this week and and in the weeks to come. And I am so so so glad to have my husband Chris by my side loving and supporting me, and even helping me out with the business as it becomes a family business!

This is my new logo, which I am SOOO thrilled with! It has been in planning and through several variations through the last couple months. It was designed by Nicole of nb creative who is just fabulous! In the next few days I will be posting pictures of the business cards and thank you cards she also designed for me! (Which are also pretty much amazing ;-) ) Ahh, so exciting!

There are still a few sections on the website that are under construction, but everything will be fully done by next weekend if every thing goes to plan! Soon it will feature details on different types of sessions, pricing,  client ordering section, and F.A.Q.’s! I am so excited about giving a new attitude to wedding photography and taking it to the next level!

Thank you so much for your support and encouragement over the last year, and I look forward to many more to come with all of you! Keep checking back this week for new pictures, and there may be a contest for the commenters ;-) Woo hoo!

This could be the start of something new…

…It feels so right to be….here….uh….oh. Hi everyone. Ahem. No, I was not just singing a song from High School Musical. (umm…and I apologize for anyone else now not singing something from High School Musical).

Ok enough of me trying to be funny. Haha. Sorry, it’s an exciting week here on the blog and I am very excited to show you some new stuff we have going on! First…check out this collage of images below of the brand-spankin’ new, absolutely gorgeous albums I am now offering!

These things are just loaded with beautiful features! I’m pretty much addicted! These are flush mount albums, which basically means the image goes all the way to the edge of the page. Although the album is shaped like a coffee table book, the pages lay flat for a seamless spread between the two pages (see the bottom middle and top middle images). Beautifully hand crafted covers come in a variety of styles (shown with a stripe in bottom right color), and a variety of colors in fabrics. This one is gorgeous, soft, red leather that is to die for! Also available with a gorgeous canvas image printed directly on the front cover, silk covered covers, and a variety of colors and textures of leather (including colors called: havana, komodo dragon, and scarlet o hara). They also come beautifully wrapped in recycled paper. The pages of the book are super thick and heavy duty, as you can see in the top left corner.

 

5″x5″ books are great for showing off your senior portraits with FLAIR, boudoir shoots as a present for your hubby (or hubby to be!), or parents copies of your wedding album! Also available as 8″x8″ and 10″x10″–the ultimate in beautiful wedding albums! This is the new generation…trendy, unique, yet beautiful and timeless.

 

Just trust me…you really have to see these things! Ah! They are so gorgeous, and I’m so excited to be offering them to you! Contact me to see this sample in more detail, or if you have a previous or future session, for ordering information!

 

I hope everyone is having a great evening! Stay tuned in the next few days for images from Ashley and Michael’s wedding, Kacey’s senior session, a mystery, and the contest winner!!
