Holiday Deadlines


Yes... that's right HOLIDAY DEADLINES. (Lynne's Wedding pictures will be posted later today)

Please note, I am posting this on my blog, and sending out an email as well. there will be NO EXCUSES accepted why you HAVE to have a rush order done. I love you all - seriously, but procrastination makes Alicia very cranky! This policy is also posted in my Policies section on the back end of my shopping cart. PLEASE READ THIS:


Deadlines:
To receive your album by December 25 - get your favorites selections in by October 1 (no charge)
Favorites received after October 1-14 ($100.00 surcharge)
Favorites received after October 15-30th ($250.00 surcharge)
Favorites received on/after October 30th will not be looked at until after New Years.


Holiday rush is a horrible time for us.  If you are cutting it close, we are probably cutting it closer.   Please try to think ahead and get your print orders in before Thanksgiving.  All PRINT Rush Orders between December 15-20 will be hit with a $50.00 surcharge.  Last year we spent Christmas Eve delivering prints and it made for a really stressful holiday, I think I cried once or twice. People (i.e. clients) seem to get stressed too and yell at me.  This year’s policy- NO YELLING AT THE PHOTOGRAPHER. Anyone that yells at me gets a complimentary piece of coal packaged in with their print. :)
If you do place an order after December 15th IT CANNOT BE MAILED. There is NO mailing. "Can you Fed Ex it?” No. No begging, pleading, or threatening.  The Answer is, NO.  We had lost packages and missing holiday gifts last year, and I do not want to ruin someone’s holiday by you not having a gift. If you order late, have a friend stop by the studio and grab it.  POINT:  We love you guys, but please get your print orders in by December 1 and album orders in by October 1. I will be turning off the ability to purchase albums online after October 30th. You will only be able to buy prints. After December 15th I will be turning off the ability to buy those as well.
