    Bronze Level Package

     

    The Bronze Level is the entry level Package for the Fusion series of packages.   The other packages are built off of this package so we'll please let us elaborate. 

     

    The Photography

     

     

    One of the most common comments  people have about this package is that the photography must be pretty bad to be priced so inexpensively.     If by "bad" they mean horrible, the opposite of good, then the answer is no.    If it's the street cred "bad" like what Michael Jackson was singing about, then the answer is maybe. 

     

    The bottom line is that we've been developing a following for our photographic style for the last 14 years.    We've been featured in magazines, flown to exotic destinations to photograph weddings, and yet we are always excited about what we do.  For this price you won't get stuck with a flunky we found in a newspaper ad.  There are two of us who do most of the photography in our studio, when we're booked, we're booked. 

     

    One of the more common questions we get is if we'll match some newbie's even lower prices.   Sorry, the answer is no.  If you truly believe any nice schmoe  with a good camera is qualified to photograph your wedding then you'll be in great hands whoever you hire.    We've not only heard about what they do, we've seen it.     We're sorry to say that no matter what they charge it's too much. 

     

    The Fusion Bronze is our entry level package and at this point we've sold a fair number of these packages.  Most of our clients go for the Chrome or the Solana package.    The Bronze package has worked wonders for smaller weddings we've photographed.   People have been very happy with this package and loved the photography!    For nearly 14 years people have trusted us with their weddings.  And they tell their friends and families about, us, and their coworkers.   You only have one shot at your wedding, if the wedding photography is even remotely important you'll be very happy with the Fusion Bronze Package.

     

     

     

     

    The Album Design Process

     

    The excitement level of your wedding dies off soon after it's over.  Of course people want to see pictures as soon as possible.   Thus we've come up with the JET album design process.   Aside from the thank you cards and perhaps wedding video we're the last thing you need to complete before you put your wedding to bed for a lifetime.   What we do is help expatiate the process of album design so that you can have the album of your dreams closer to your wedding date.   The first thing we do is look through your thousands of images and do some minor post production on them, categorize them and basically make your life easier when it comes to you needing  find specific images from your wedding..  They are arranged by topics.  Then we go through and do a first layout.   This is important because often images you may overlook can be exceptional images in an album.   If a wedding is shot well, this process is fairly easy, the naturally good images really  stand out.  You have our expertise in the first layout.  Our brides typically will go through and change out a few images for ones they like better.   How will you see all your wedding images?  We'll explain it all to you when we meet.  We have a very certain way to make things simple for you when it comes to selecting images.   In the end you will approve your layout and no you will not get stuck with something you don't like.  As mentioned before our clients referral is the lifeblood of our business.

     

    The Album Construction

     

    By now you're probably suspecting that the Fusion Albums are going to printed on something horrible, and if you meet with us the first thing we'll do is tell you that you don't want these albums, but instead you'll need to spend more money on a better album.   Ah,  the old bait and switch tactic, nope that's not our scene.  We were actually encouraged to this by an album company when we first opened up because it was a good way to get people through the door.  Only one problem, some people would have bought these albums, and they  were so poorly constructed that by now all of them would have come back to us and we would have to do the entire job over again.

     

    Thus the Fusion AI albums are well made because if they weren't, we would sell them.  We are album coinsures.  The best way to describe their quality is if the Fusion AI was  a car, it would be a Toyota.  We also sell Cadillacs and Ferraris.  One cool thing about these albums are that they are made in California.  Lifetime Images has been a strong supporter of keeping business in California.  The Fusion AI will hold up for many years of enjoyment as long as you take good care of it.  If there is a manufacturing problem we'll handle it, and if your album gets damaged it can be repaired fairly inexpensively. 

     

    Page Capacity (how many photos?) 

     

    Page capacity is an important issue because it can make or break your album.   If you have too few pages in your layout your album will look rushed and busy.  If you have too many pages people will get bored looking through it.  If your layout is too busy with too many images nothing will stand out and people will get bored looking through it as well.  For a good example of what we mean, look through your typical magazine.   The pages that are busy, what stands out.  When the have feature stories there are fewer and larger images. 

     

    The most commonly asked question we have is how many images can go into an album?   We can easily stuff in a few hundred images into a 30 side album,  However, it will look like trash.  An image can represent an entire series of events.  For example, do you really need an image of each bridesmaid walking down the isle?  Can't people infer from seeing them in the wedding party images that they walked down the isle?  A few  great picture of the bride walking down the isle will go further than a photographic representation of each bridesmaid  walking down the isle.   Thus, a few good images can take the place of many.

     

    A 30 side bridal album is great for a smaller wedding, with smaller groups.   A good example is a boat wedding that lasts from start to finish four hours including ceremony, dinner and all the formalities.  Other good examples are a second wedding,  a backyard wedding.  or small church wedding with a simple reception. 

     

    Forty side bridal albums  are a good size for your typical wedding.  Unless you are having a large wedding with big families and big bridal parties this option should work well for you.

     

    Fifty and sixty side wedding albums are great for larger weddings or people who are into having  lots of photos.   The thing to keep in mind about a wedding album is that we set up the story and you narrate it.  At some point you will be going through page by page talking about the entire wedding day with your friends or family.  if you have  a first dance, father daughter dance, cake cutting, toasts, bouquet and garter on one layout how would you describe that?    Break them down over a few pages and you'll have an easier time describing the events as they occurred.

     

    Turn Around Time

    Our goal is to get the albums into the hands of the bridal couple within 90 days of their wedding.  Because we need our bridal couples to approve their albums this time can vary depending on how active they are in the process.

     

    High Resolution DVD

     

    The high resolution DVD doesn't have watermarks on it, nor are the images much smaller than what is usable.  You will get the DVD when your album package is paid in full. 

     

     

      

    What can you do in six hours?

     

    So, if you're on a budget, and you need good wedding photography, the bronze level  of the  Fusion Package is certainly for you.    You get six  hours of coverage.  Though this isn't all day coverage, we can easily help you figure out which are the six  most crucial hours of coverage you're going to need on your wedding day , thus giving you the most bang for you buck.  Many of the weddings this year are smaller, and  shorter in duration and thus  six  hours is plenty of time.  We are very efficient when it comes to wedding photography and we can get done in six  hours that many other studios can't do in eight hours.    Another way to look at this level of coverage is that it establishes you with good coverage from a great photography studio.  With this amount of coverage and you'll be able to have pre- wedding of photographs taken the ceremony and family portraits romantics, and perhaps small part in a reception.  This will be enough to make a compelling album.  The album will begin consist of 30 sides, and approximately 70 images.

     

    As your wedding day gets closer you can always upgrade your package.    You can fine tune your package before your wedding as your financial picture becomes clearer and you have a better idea of what will happen on your wedding day.
