I have a trip to the Post Office today… canvases, albums, books, CDs, portraits and other goodies going home to some very happy families… and very, very lucky grandparents, godparents, etc — all over the world! Most of my clients started Christmas shopping early this year… and what a better Holiday gift than the gift of memories?
Photos of the goodies inside those boxes coming soon… check back often!
My kids’ pumpkins not included

The image below…
turned into this huge panel for her first birthday party:
(cake by famous berliosca!)
These StoryBoard/Collage designs…
… turned into unique pieces of art:
Your portraits are art pieces and should be displayed with style.
That’s why I always help my clients visualize their favorite images in their homes…
… so they can proudly display their art!
{our signature fine art Canvases come ready to hang and are designed to be displayed without a frame}
I always get the question “so how big should I go with my images?” Bigger is always better — it makes more of an impact.
For smaller prints, I usually suggest a gallery display, a grouping of images (for instance, four 16×20 or eight 8×10 art prints grouped together).
16×20 sounds big, huh? Not until you see it close to a 30×40, like the one hanging on the wall bellow:
And just in time for Father’s Day:

I’ve mentioned here I’d post a few snaps of one of the latest albums that I’ve designed. It’s truly gorgeous and is delivered in a beautiful, durable presentation box. It’s fast becoming my best-seller couture product among my newborn and baby clients. I’ll be receiving 2 more next week and will make a point to share them here as well.
These delicious albums have such a high-end quality to them, you have to feel it, touch it to believe it! Straight to the top to the most upscale, classy album, completely hand-made using only the finest materials. This exquisite 9×9 Album is sure to be a conversation piece and the fun part is that *you* get to choose the cover — your piece of fine art, your album. THE Album.
Yummy!
I have a busy weekend ahead but time permitting I’ll come back here to also post a few images of exciting new products and the facebook promo for my facebook fans!

StoryBoards and Collages… I love designing them! They are such a unique and fun way to display my clients’ favorite images… and they love them too! I recently sent a few gorgeous ones to the lab and thought I’d share here too, while mom (and me!) ever so patiently wait to get the finished product (it always feels like christmas here when the UPS guy comes by and it’s always soooo sad when I have to part with the goodies… but that’s OK though, I know parents will be thrilled to display them so I’m happy too
This one is a desk StoryBoard, to be displayed on an easel (or perhaps just resting on a mantel or shelf?) I just {puffy heart} love these two images together!! Gorgeous, gorgeous family!
I always present my clients with a few collage ideas with my favorite images from our session, and then we go from there. It’s definitely a collaborative process and our goal (mine and my client’s) is to design just the perfect art display for their home.
Their story, through my lens, beautifully displayed as art.
Isn’t he a doll?
Wording for this one was all mom’s idea, and it’ s actually a series of three StoryBoards, one from each of our sessions together (Baby’s first year plan). I presented mom with a few display ideas and she went with this layout (two panoramics + one square):
First one is a panoramic Collage with images from our newborn session. The one on the right will display images from our 1 year old session (can’t wait!! — LOVE watching them grow!)
and yes, I do spoil my lovely clients with a professionally-designed Wall Art Display & Inspiration Guide, which tremendously helps them visualize photo galleries and displays in their homes.
Make sure to come back here as I’ll be posting the finished products once I get them and also images from another *stunning* and I repeat STUNNING Album that will soon be leaving the premises (snif, snif) to mom’s giddy, anxious hands I can’t wait to see her face once she sees her Album!! Oh, we have a FUN new product which will soon be featured here on the blog as well!! And of course, sneak peeks from the latest sessions… spring sessions going on full force here!
On that note, Spring is now full, thank you all! Please contact me as soon as possible if you’d wish to be added to the waiting list. (info@bellemeinerz.com | 604.802.5006)
I am currently booking into Summer and (gasp!) Fall — I’ll have more info on that soon, as I will be taking fewer sessions in July and August (and those summer sessions are going quick) so call or email today to book your session. (info@bellemeinerz.com | 604.802.5006)
