PET PHOTOGRAPHY
PET APPRECIATION PROMOTION 2007

   Does your face light up when you talk about your cat or dog? Do you tell stories about your pet to everyone? Does the mere thought of your dog or cat or special family member make you feel happy? If they're anything like my black cat Charlie, they're a great source of joy in your life.

   How about getting a professional photographer to take a series of candid pictures of your pets?

   Hi, my name is Maria and I'm writing this letter from my studio to announce a special offer:

A PROFESSIONAL PORTRAIT PACKAGE CAPTURING YOUR PET'S UNIQUE CHARACTER AS S/HE IS TODAY — 100% GUARANTEED AND FOR A SPECIAL PRICE

   Show off the stars of your family — all of their antics, expressions and quirks that make them the gem of your street. Your friends will say, "WOW!" and their hearts will melt once they see your pet in print. With a photoshoot, you will be able to:

  • Have your pet portrayed artistically and professionally
  • Display your pets on your desk at work and keep some photos in your wallet
  • Hang a gallery of framed photographs on your walls
  • Have a record of your pet running and playing and having a good time, joined by you and your kids if you'd like
  • Secure extraordinary photographs that are very different from regular "Point & Shoot" varieties
  • Have some great fun with the magnificent creatures you are raising.

   Each photoshoot will take about an hour and will produce about 48 images. The location is up to you — either your home or a local park. After the photo session, we can meet again to look at proofs and to choose images to be enlarged. It normally takes 3-4 weeks from the last photoshoot to get finished prints.

   Prices are based on a 1-2 pet household. Extra pets are $50 each. A 50% deposit will be collected on booking.

   I have assembled 2 very popular, high quality, special PET APPRECIATION PACKAGES for you to choose from:

   Please contact me, Maria, by phone 250-812-3487 or by email soon to book an appointment. This is a limited time offer.

   Great packages or what? I've done absolutely all I could to build as much value into these offers as possible. And once you see the proofs, I want you to be absolutely satisfied with your photos and to be proud to hang your pictures on your walls or to give them as gifts to your friends.

   To qualify for these deals, (Taxes and shipping are extra) you need to act by June 30th, 2007. Please contact me, Maria, by phone 250-812-3487 or by email now and say "Yes, Maria, I want to take advantage of your special 2007 Pet Photography offer. Please book us in for a photoshoot." Take advantage of this opportunity today. Appointments are filling up fast. You'll be glad you called.


WHY AM I THE RIGHT PHOTOGRAPHER FOR THIS ASSIGNMENT?
  • I am a professional photographer who has taken over 8,000 photographs over the last 20 years.
  • My photos have been published in newspapers
  • I take great pride in my work.
  • I love photography and animals and putting those 2 passions together is pure joy for me and that carries over into the pictures I take, for sure.

   One more thing. I have many interests and cover a wide range of subjects in my photography. If you're interested in hiring a photographer, but not for your pet, like if you have a wedding coming up in your family, or would like to have pictures taken of your kids, family or business events, please call me at 812-3487. I'd be happy to assemble a personal photography package just for you.

   Thank you for your consideration in hiring me as your photographer. I look forward to hearing from you soon to further discuss my qualifications and this offer.

   Sincerely, Maria Koropecky, pet photographer
