Client tips

(…and why it’s better than just getting digital images)

When you’re searching for a photographer to meet your photo needs, I understand that receiving digital images is often your top priority. However, at Karen Yau Photography, I wholeheartedly believe your digital images deserve to be printed and displayed. Keep reading to discover the perks of having a print credit included with your collection…and why it’s something you never realized you needed.

Digital images are great. Don’t get me wrong. Whenever I have my own photos taken, the first thing I ask is, “Can I have the digitals?” I want to keep those images forever. And as a photographer, I enjoy the added bonus of using those files in different ways. But when I began building my business, I knew one thing for sure: I wanted my clients to see their images hanging proudly on the walls of their homes. The question was, how could I make that happen?

Think about how many times you’ve returned something at a store without a receipt—or exchanged a gift that wasn’t quite right. Most stores give you store credit, right? That credit gives you the freedom to choose something that better suits your taste.

That’s when the idea hit me: what if I offered a print credit as part of my service? By gifting my clients a print credit, I could encourage them to actually print their images. (I mean… who turns down a gift like that?) This simple addition gives me the chance to create an elevated shopping experience through my carefully curated store. At the same time, it gives you the opportunity to bring your favorite images from our session to life in a meaningful way.

To me, that’s a win-win.

Ways to use your print credit

No matter which collection you choose, each one includes a set amount of print credit that you can use in my online store.

Fine Art Prints

Fine Art Prints use archival pigment to enhance the colors of your image. My trusted professional lab carefully prints each photo with longevity in mind, ensuring it will last for years to come.

Bamboo Tabletop Frames

Bamboo tabletop frames offer a modern and stylish way to display your images. Printed on metal, your photos truly shine and take center stage. The best part? You can easily swap out the prints, so updating your frame with new favorites is simple and fun.

Canvas

Canvas prints offer a classic and timeless way to display your images at home. The protective coating guards against scuffs, scratches, and UV light, and each print arrives ready to hang. Using your print credit for one is an easy, no-brainer choice.

Do you see why having a print credit is a perk?

No matter how you choose to use your print credit, printing your images is essential. You spent a lot of time choosing your outfits and picking the perfect locations for your session—so don’t let those images sit hidden on a hard drive. They deserve to be seen and enjoyed. Display them proudly in your home, where you can appreciate them every day.
