Hello!
This is Kate your Client Advocate. I am here to help you with anything relating to Walcott Imaging. Do you have a question? Let me know and I will answer. Would you like some help ordering prints? I can walk you through it step-by-step. Not convinced by the AMAZING talent of Lisa and Rob? Lets setup a face to face and I will dazzle you with their work and also show you tangible options such as albums and add-ons.
Something else that I can do for you is help you find the best option possible to fit your needs along with the most financially sound choice for you. Whether it is choosing a package that offers you GREAT deals on your prints (such as the Senior Favorite) or setting up incremental photoshoots for the b-e-a-utiful new addition to your family so that the first year of his/her life is well documented, I’m your Advocate. I will work my hardest to make your experience with Walcott Imaging the best possible.
Here are some other options we are offering:
- “Baker’s Dozen” on wallets for Seniors
- “Our Favorite” package for you session
- Free days
- “Invite Me to Your Party!“
- Christmas Cards
- Featured Products Sale
So now it is time to contact me and let me help you with whatever you might need. I will be writing specific posts about each of these options in the coming weeks/months, but if you just can’t wait let me know and I can send more information your way now.
Cheers!
First Ever Free Studio Day!
Tuesday, June 9th, 2009We recently had our first ever free studio day and it went really well! We had a great time seeing many of our long time clients come back through our studio as well as meeting many new faces! We had a wide variety of requests from dogs to kids to professional business shots to passport photos! Thanks for your support!
Here are some pictures from the day:
Thanks to all who participated, we will be offering another one in July! This time we will be outside at Kollen Park in Holland booking 20 minute sessions all day long! Need pictures? Get in touch with us today! (616.566.4667 or e-mail support@walcottimaging.com)
Backward and Forward : Reflecting @ Five Years
Tuesday, July 15th, 2008People as they are, things as they happen. Documenting moments in time is what we do! As we approach five years as photographers, it has been fun to look back at where we’ve been. We’ve grown in experience, technological expertise, our equipment has been updated, our eyes have become trained. We no longer panic when it seems nothing is happening at an event and take pictures all over the place to compensate; instead we have learned to sit, wait and watch. In looking back, improvement in our current work is definitely noticeable, but there is a sort of sweetness to those first photographs. The one’s you have to try over and over to get. The shot you had never taken before like a bride putting on her wedding dress or a father gripping his daughters hand before escorting her down the aisle. It was more exhilarating then, but I’m better at it now. I suppose there are great things about both “places” that I have been.
Recent Awards
Friday, May 2nd, 2008I just got an email from Pete at the The Image Group and he informed me that some of the work that we did for the YMCA with The Image Group won an Addy Award. It is always nice to have work recognized – although we only played a minor role.
It looks like Image Group has also recently updated its website which looks pretty slick. I might be a little biased as we did the Staff Pictures as well as 4 of the 6 images on the home page.
Cheers to the Image Group!
Dove Evolution Ad
Thursday, March 6th, 2008A short while ago I gave a photography demonstration at West Middle School and I was reminded of the Dove Evolution ad that I had seen earlier on YouTube.
Here is the ad if you haven’t seen it:
I think the ad does a great job of revealing how deceptive a photograph can be.
It is probably equally important to note that although Dove seems to promote “natural beauty” the owners of Dove (Unilever) also own the company Axe – whose ads are often a complete contradiction to the Dove ads.

Feel free to use the images for your profile picture or for other online reasons as well.
