We changed our name (and website) to Mike + Lauren (Mike “plus” Lauren)! With the name change comes some new products and FREE products!!! Yes, FREE product!!! First I’ll explain a few changes that have transpired over the last two weeks, then I’ll talk about the FREE products and how to get yours!
First, new branding! The name has been Mike Richards Photography but what is a husband and wife team in just my name? Now that our new company name is Mike + Lauren, we needed a new logo and something a little more unisex. 
Lauren and I worked hard to create a new logo, I had thought about bringing in some outside help but we are both creative people, so we figured we’d give it a go.
We think the logo is pretty sweet, don’t you?!
Next up, gallery wrapped canvases!!! Gallery wrapped canvases are an awesome way to show-off your beautiful engagement or wedding photos! In our studio, we currently have 4 – 24×36″ and 2 – 16×24″ canvas prints hanging on the walls and they really draw a lot of attention. We’ve always had clients ask about them but we’ve never really offered them for sale…for us, they were just a way for us to show off our work. Not any more! Now, you can have your beautiful photos taken by us blown up on a small or HUGE canvas ranging from 8×10″ to 30×40″!
Our gallery wrapped canvases feature a 1.5″ wrap on the sides of the frame so that the image continues on all sides of the canvas, whereas some canvases only display the image on the front and the sides are generally black. The quality is also unbeatable! A lot of print companies are offering canvases along side their normal paper prints but as pro-photographers we can order from companies that the general public doesn’t have access to. Our canvas company is a canvas printing company and the only other printing they offer is specialized metal prints. This provides the best quality, depth in color tone and overall longevity. Below is a couple of photos of a few of our beautiful canvases.
A 24×36″ canvas along side 2-16×24″ canvases.
Three 24×36″ canvases.
1.5″ Gallery Wrap (notice how image continues on sides of canvas).
Now, we can’t launch a new site, new branding and canvases without something for FREE, can we?! So until August 31st, any client who books us to photograph their wedding will receive a FREE 16×24″ gallery wrapped canvas! The image for this canvas is of course picked by you and can be used on any photo you like from either an engagement session, after session or wedding.
Lauren and I are both so excited for some more amazing stuff to come!
