"Keepsakes For Businesses"


          

I just learned how to make these collages and Im still learning
new techniques. I have only made them for family so far, but I would
love to do them for businesses also.

(site not finished yet)

I would like to make up an example collage to show businesses, if there was an area they could use something like this. Ive been trying to think of how I can use these for a business but havent been able to come up with any ideas.

Im hoping maybe someone on this board will have some.

The possibilities for this are endless! You could promote to businesses that hold special events --- corporate picnics, tradeshow happenings, chamber of commerce ribbon cutting events, virtually any activity that would allow a business to feature itself!

Hope that gets your ideas flowing!

I know I'd be interested in having something like this in my store (once i get to open, that is!) Imagine a business being able to capture its most memorable events and having them displayed on the wall for all to see!

Good Luck!

I would also like to get into doing something
with babies. Not just a collage, but something
unusual and fancy with the collage.

Do you do these is photoshop? I taught myself how to do these and they are addicting. How about hooking up with a photographer in the area and offer your services (that is why I taught myself since I worked for a photographer and he would shoot weddings so I would do him up an 11X14 or 16X20 and they would sell and make him the big bucks) If I knew then what I know now I would have also charged him the big bucks LOL.

Lisa & Laura,

Thank you so much for these great ideas.
None of these ideas ever crossed my mind.
now you really have my wheels turning lol.

Laura, yes I use Photoshop to do these and you
are right, they are very addicting to do. Im still
in the process of learning this, they are coming
out better the more I practice.

How much does you photographer charge for the
11x14 and 16x20 ?

He tends to do a lot of friends of friends type of things so I think his 11X14 is between $75-$100. I know that other photographers charge MUCH more than that for a collage, so test to see how long it takes you to do one so you will know how much to charge. I know that some days are more creative than others for me so sometime a 1/2 hour collage can take me well over an hour if the juice aren't flowing. Let me know if you you have any questions or if you want to see any examples to get your creativity sparked (I'm sure I can find one in the back files).

Hi Laura,

I did forget to ask another question, how much do you
charge the photographer for collaging his work?

Yes, I would love to see some examples of yours. Thank
you for offering.

I couldn't figure out where to get your email from, so here is mine and I will get a few collages that I did out to you for examples.
