You’ve probably never thought about why you want something different, you just know you do. Perhaps it’s because you see something in yourself, or in your family nobody else sees, or you’re tired of getting the same old family portraits every year that only say you’re a really stiff family with nice smiles.
Have you ever heard the saying, “A picture is worth a 1,000 words?”
Unfortunately for most family portraits you and your friends have gotten in the past, those words are things like nice, average, typical, common, traditional, similar, and my favorite, BORING!
Let’s face it, the family portraits as you’ve always known them are BORING and I don’t blame you for not wanting the same old boring portrait this time.
Fortunately, I’m going to show you how you can turn a 1,000-word picture into a 69,000-word family portrait.
The Garrett’s Story
Like so many people, Kim Garrett found Photillustrator by Jason Ulsrud while having lunch with a group of girlfriends one day who showed her a uniquely different way to do a family portrait. Knowing one of the families, Niki and David Campisi, Kim was inspired to reach out and get a creative family portrait of her own.
Upon meeting with Kim during her Discovery Session, more than wanting something “different”, Kim wanted a family portrait that would capture each of the personalities of her amazing family in a fun and entertaining way.
In other words, she wanted a family portrait she could look back on and remember this time in their lives.
69,000 Words
Ok, so you’ve heard the old saying that a picture is worth a 1,000 words, and if you haven’t, then now you have.
“A Picture is Worth a 1,000 Words.”
Your family’s story, however, can’t possibly be summed up in just one picture, which is what most boring family portraits try to do.
That’s why we’ve created a way to take many, many pictures of your family, artistically blend them together, then illustrate the amazing personalities and story your uniquely different family has to tell.
So, if a picture is worth a 1,000 words, wouldn’t a creative family portrait using 69 pictures be worth 69,000 words?
To give you a better idea of the attention to detail your family portrait will have, here’s a breakdown of each of the pictures that went into the Garrett’s family portrait.
