Graduation Announcement Design Services

There are so many needs for design services now that I wanted to share a few examples of my recent designs. Since Senior portraits are in high demand right now, I will focus on those today.

Creating graduation cards instead of sending out the canned ones the school sells, is one of the newest trends. Mail these amazing custom photo cards combined with a decorative information sheet to family and friends. Once the event is over, they still have a great photo of your graduate as a keep sake.



These designs can be created from photo shoots I do personally or with your own photos. Contact me today for more information.

Bella Jade

You may think you have seen this dress on here before...and you would be correct. This is Bella and she is the cousin of Brighton who was recently featured here. These pages were designed to coordinate with each other to be printed and hung side by side on the wall or placed in a photo album or scrapbook.



Just look at this girls' eyes!

Trevia Project

My day today was spent making Senior Graduation cards for Trevia. This was another project involving a picture that I did not take. While this young man is quite good looking, for some reason he had the "cool dude" squint going on in the picture I was provided. This may be cool for his school buddies, but his relatives want to see his eyes. So I did a little work on the picture before I did the card.
Below is the end result and this will be used as his graduation announcement. You might be saying that some important details are missing..and you would be correct. In an effort to keep from taking away from the size of the picture on the card, we decided to add a second sheet containing all the necessary particulars. This keeps the picture a nice viewable size on the card and also keeps the card more like a senior picture that could be framed or placed in a photo album by friends and family. This was printed as a 4 x 6. Thanks for looking!

College Graduation Project

Today I want to share with you what has been keeping me so busy this past week. I was in contact with a previous client (you should all remember Emma Lee's Christmas photo shoot) this week. She was in need of some items for her daughter Autumn. Autumn is graduating from college next week and mom is planning a party. For the feature of the party, Chris was looking for a slide show. She brought me an envelope of pictures and some music CD's. I scanned all the photos in and of course that disease called perfectionism flared up and I had to edit several of them! Once all 160 pictures were scanned and edited the rest of the slide show was assembled. Another need was her graduation cap and gown portrait. Unfortunately, I was not available the weekend she needed these taken so she had to make other arrangements. When she sent me the pictures, I picked the one I liked best and went to work with the editing. Chris didn't like the chair in the background and the plain white wall was boring. So, I have attached the end result comparison below.


Now on to the announcement. Chris has great vision for what she is looking for, but we have always been on the same wave length. So, she usually just gives me creative freedom and says "Show me watcha got!" This is a great time to try some cool fun techniques, so I did. This is the progression comparison of the announcement to the end.

This was printed in a 4 x 6 and will be mailed out to friends and family with the thank you notes...so it isn't really an announcement.

I will post the CD label for the DVD's for the slide show later today. I need to crop on out of the print sheet. Another service I provided for this project was 10 scrapbook pages. They were used as section dividers in the slide show and then printed and put in a scrapbook as a gift to Autumn. It is easy to get great results when you start with such a beautiful subject!!!
