What to expect during the photo collage design and ordering process
1) Upload your high quality, high resolution photographs. For best results provide a curated selection of photos that work together as a set, creating a unified and visually pleasing piece of art. When selecting your "similar kind" photographs think about photgraphs sharing a common link to ensure the final collage is visually cohesive and harmonious composition. Common links include:
- Common Theme related to a specific subject, story or event
- Consistent Color Palette such as all black and white, all sepia-toned pr sharing a limited range of hues
- Similar Style or Quality such as resolution, lighting conditions, or professional portraits vs. casual shots
- Compositional Unity such as a smilar focal point, shapes or subject sizes
- Non- Repetitive but related content. Images shoud not be exact duplicates but rather may be shots of the same subject/person from different angles or poses.
2) Personalize it with a name, year, event, custom message or favorite quote
3) Review a watermarked sample of the collage and approve it
4) Once written approval is submitted and received, submit requested payment via Zelle
5) Once payment finalizes, receive an electronic version of approved collage to download
NOTE: All orders, regardless of the design option selected, will be delivered electronically. For your convenience we may provide printing services (for an additional fee) of the collage selected on your behalf for a printing service fee. In addition, the customer is responsible for all shipping costs and taxes delivered directly through Shutterfly. Any problems with your print or delivery would have to be handled directly through Shutterfly by the customer.
