Portraits Today Studios

October 31, 2009
11-3 Texas Roadhouse, Olathe, Kansas – Portraits Today Studios will be photographing kids in their costumes at the Texas Roadhouse.  FREE 5x7s will be available to the little trick-or-treaters.  Texas Roadhouse will be doing a promotion as well which I believe is kids in costume eat free with accompanying parental meal.  (Check with them for the details.)

4-6 Chick-fil-A, Olathe, Kansas-  Chick-fil-A will be giving kids in costume a free kids meal with any accompanying parental meal and Portraits Today Studios will be taking pictures of the kids in costume and giving away a FREE 5×7 for each family. 

In each of the above cases a certificate good for one free 5×7 will be made available to all the kids we photograph.  You can bring that certificate in any time we are open over the next 60 days to our studios and you’ll receive a free 5×7.  No purchase necessary though extra copies will be made available to anyone that asks.  We just want you to know where we are and to keep us in mind for this holiday’s portrait season.  Tell your friends!

2-5 “Tweak the Treat” – Prairie Life Fitness in Olathe is allowing TCOY Wellness space to host a “Tweak the Treat” event wherein you can bring in your extra candy from Halloween to send over to our troops who have a sweet tooth.  Gift certificates from many local companies in and around Olathe will be there to say “thank you” for your support. 

November 13
5-9 Family Portrait Night at Chick-fil-A - You might want to hurry on this one.  With nearly no promotion I hear that there have been many reservations made, already.  We’ll be taking photos of customers who are there to eat and have made a reservation to get their photo taken.  Each family will receive a Free 5×7 that they can pick up from our portrait studios here in Olathe.  And you know we’ll make more copies and holiday cards available at our reasonable prices either online or in our studios.

November 13-15
2009 Kansas City “SPLASHDOWN”- Up in Gladstone, MO we’ve been asked to come in and give some quality service for this swim meet’s sports photography.  So if you have a little fish look for us up there.  And say “hello” because we’d love to meet you in person. 

November 26
Closed for Thanksgiving.  If you are having family/friends in town why not book now for your family portrait?  Last year Wednesday, Friday and Saturday of Thanksgiving week were very busy.  So book early.

Here at Portraits Today Studios we like to have fun, take quality photographs of you and your children and create memories that you can take home with you today.  We offer same day, affordable portrait services with no sitting fee!

About Our Services
Ever been to Portrait Innovations in Overland Park?  We are a lot like Portrait Innovations…without the long waits.    (That’s what our happy customers tell us, anyway.)  Ever been to JC Penny Portrait Studios in Overland Park?  We hear a lot of good things about them, too.  But we deliver our photos to you within the half hour of your order.  No waiting here.  (Well, except for special orders.)  Our other competitors?  Olan Mills in Olathe.  Portrait Studio 101 also in Olathe.  Picture Me! in the Olathe Wal-Mart.  And the Target Portrait Studios.  Please, give us a try and see the difference.  We are competitively priced and nearly to a person everyone of our customers seems to think we have a leg up on them. 

Now, this may sound an awful lot like bragging and shameless self-promotion.  Well, yes.  It’s a tough economy out there and our location is a little secluded.  We are so happy with how the community has received us but amazed at how many people that still don’t know we are here.  We just keep spreading the word and ask for your help! 

So when you or one of your friends needs to know about a portrait studio that is close to Overland Park and Gardner and Lenexa and right here in Olathe, please tell them where to find us.  It will be appreciated!

A special thanks to the Olathe Chick-fil-A who has asked us once again to come in and take photographs of the little trick-o-treaters on October 31.  The kids get a free chicken sandwich if they are in costume.  And Portraits Today Studios will take their picture for free that same night.  No obligation.  Just for fun.  So mark your calendars.

She came in with several different outfits and we went to work coming up with what I think are some fun portraits that should help her sell some of her product over on her website and, well, make her boyfriend glad he knows her!

Ladies, if you would like a personalized portrait session that will make your man turn his head a couple times and brag to his mates about his lady, give us a call.  We like to make couples happy.    We call our glamour photography our Sassy Lady package.  Call us for more details.

Your memories, today.

The best part of photography is capturing a moment in time that represents who that person is.  We can do that with your portraits for your business cards, websites and social media sites.  You will probably need more than one shot for all of those needs.  PTS will take about a dozen shots and burn your favorite 3-4 shots (with minor touch-ups included!) onto a cd that has a copyright release.

Why is the copyright release important?  Because you will need it for your advertising on business cards, yard signs and heck, even on the sides of buses.

Our real estate head shot fees for the 3-4 photos with copyright release on a cd start at $69.95.  For 99.9% of real estate agents that will be enough to last you for a while.  However, if you have some customized ideas that will take us out of the studios or you are wanting to get several more “candid” style shots while you are in we can do that to and we’ll be more than fair on the additional pricing.

When you ask us to go out to the houses we’ll discuss that on a per house basis.  It’s more affordable than you may think.  And you can ask us about our Share the Risk pricing.  If you don’t sell, we don’t get paid either.  But we know our real estate photography will make people stop and notice when they are going through the internet listings that are out there.  Have you seen most real estate photography?  Yeck.

If you need an image makeover to help you get your real estate career going. Give us a call today.  913.782.PICS.

We got some pretty cool photos for her wall and her website.  Hopefully she’ll get many of them up.  We also made her this 10×13 composite photo that I hope she enjoys.  If you are looking for an optometrist in Olathe, you might keep her in mind.
