REFERRAL PROGRAM
It is because of customers like you that we are able to stay in business. The fact that the majority of our business is generated by word of mouth allows us to spend more time with our valued customers and less time advertising. We feel that this benefits both the customer and the studio. Our Referral Program was created to allow our customers to benefit from telling their friends and family about us. Our policy is to ask every new client where they heard about us, if they give us your name or present us with a Referral Card with your name on it, you will receive a coupon for a free 8×10 (a $25 value) to be applied to your next sitting. This coupon is valid for one year after the date it is issued and can only be redeemed for an 8×10 Gift Portrait.
IMAGE PREVIEW
All images will be uploaded to a CD after which time we will send you a copy to view your proofs.
