A collage is a single print created using several photographs.

Please read the questions and answers provided below for information about ordering a collage...

How Many Photos Can I Put On A Collage?

I can put as many photos as you want but a good rule of thumb is...

3 or 4 on a 5x7 - 4 to 6 on an 8x10 - 5 to 7 on an 11x14

Take a look at the Collage Gallery if you would like to get a better idea.

Do I Get To See The Collage Before It Is Printed?

YES!  I will email you a proof of the collage after I create it.

At this time you can approve it or suggest changes.

Typical changes include adding, removing or changing a photo or text.

When I make the changes, I email the new version.

This repeats until you approve the collage, at which time I print and mail.

Can I use the digital proof that you send me?

YES!  I retain all copyrights to the photographs but

I do not mind if you use the digital proof for email or on your web site.

If you are not sure then just email me but in general, my policy is that

photographs should be distributed and enjoyed.  Now if you work a deal

for advertising with Purina, we will need to talk ;-)

Do I Pick The Photos Or Do You Pick Them?

You can pick all the photos or you can identify at least one photo from

each run that you want included and I will pick what I think are the best photos.

But, remember, I will email a copy of the collage before I print it

so you can specify changes.  You can also just tell me what your favorite

photos are and I can fill in with others if there is room.

You can also tell me exactly how you want the photos arranged or

let me arrange them.  Again, you can specify changes when you see the proof.

Can I Have More Than One Dog?

I can put as many dogs as you want on a single collage.

It's your collage and I want it to be the way you envision it.

Can I Use Photographs From More Than One Event?

Yes, but some events will not mix well due to the different lighting conditions.

Let me know what you would like to do and we can see how it looks and

then decide if it's a good idea.

How Long Does It Take To Get My Collage?

You can expect to receive a proof of your collage by email 

ten days to two weeks after you place your order.

I personally do each and every collage and I do them in the order they arrive.

I never rush with collages and sometimes I'll spend a lot of time

and decide to start over because it just doesn't "click".

If you think it is taking too long, please send me an email to find out the status.

If you must have the collage by a certain date, please let me know when you order.
