Want a free image from my website? Email me.

As a way to show my appreciation for the athletes who make running this business so much fun, I'm offering to send any athlete any one image from any of the sports photo galleries on my website.

To get your free image (which will be a high-resolution image suitable for printing, Facebooking, emailing, etc ... ) you need to email me - shawn@coldhollowphoto.com - with the sport you play (boys basketball, girls soccer, etc ...) and the team you were playing against.

This offer is for a limited time - email me before the clock strikes midnight on New Year's Eve and I'll get you the image in very short order.

Spread the word to your teammates and thanks for continuing to check out my website in record numbers!

Gift Cards and Gift Certificates

I'm really happy to introduce a couple of new features for my customers - gift certificates and gift cards.

First things, first: You must purchase these from me directly - not through the website. To make a purchase email me your interest (shawn@coldhollowphoto.com) or call me 782-5317. I will walk you through the process and create a customized card and/or certificate.

Gift cards start at $10 and go up from there.

Gift certificates start at $75 - which is the standard sitting fee for family photos and includes a $25 print credit.

Frequently asked questions ...

1. How do I get my card/certificate? We can mail it to you - it comes printed onto a magnet so you won't lose it. Or, if time is a factor, we can email you the file and you can print it yourself or email it to a friend.

2. How long are they valid for? No expiration. They are good for any product/photo/download on our website and can be used for shipping charges.

3. What do they look like?

Here's a sample gift card (which are perfect gifts for folks with kids with action photos on my website. With the code on the card they can order pictures (and downloads, if available) themselves whenever they want. You don't have to give them your credit card. We put their name on the card and create a unique code - beware, if they share the code and someone else uses it, we are not repsonsible.)

Here's a sample gift certificate - great for giving the gift of family portraits. They start at $75, but can be made in highger amounts if you want to help defray the cost of a wedding package, cover the cost of an entire senior photo session ($99), etc ... They cannot be redeemed through the website, but can be converted into a gift card.

If you have any questions or would like to place an order, please email me shawn@coldhollowphoto.com or call me or Sandy at 933-8849 or 782-5317.
