- BOOK AN APPOINTMENT- Call 204 452 8326 9:30am-5:00pm or send us an email. Be advised, booking your appointment in REAL TIME over the phone is usually easier...sometimes while trading emails over a day or two, the original date you wanted gets scooped up by somebody who phoned in and booked on the spot.
- PROCEDURE- Once you've got your appointment (or you've requested your information) we will email you some info containing instructions, order forms and samples. This info will tell you everything you need to do and know about your photo shoot.
- THE SHOOT- Photo shoots take 15-20 minutes per team (Football can take 20-30 minutes). Our WHOLE system is based around efficiency of shooting to minimize any lost practice time, and we have been fine tuning it for years. We WILL be in and out without too much interruption to your team's routine.
- *Special note for hockey and Ringette teams*...We have been shooting high quality photos on the ice for 21 years. If you have been told it takes 30 mins, or had a shoot with another company last 30 or more minutes, be advised: this is simply NOT the case for our shoots.
- LOCATION- Almost 100% of our shoots are chosen by the customer to be in the natural playing environment: the rink (indoor or outdoor), the field, the diamond etc...but in the case of bad weather, or time constraints or simply by choice, your shoot can be done in a dressing room or community club in a studio style with backdrop.
- PICK A POSE- Examples of various poses from sport to sport can be seen in the Galleries section. Choose from these, or request something your team prefers.
- PRICES- Prices and samples can be seen in the Products section. Parents order individually whatever they wish for their child.
- SERVICE TIME AND DELIVERY- Completed packages are ready in about 2 weeks. Service time will vary during PEAK periods of business. Cutoff date for pre-Christmas delivery is usually between Dec 12 and Dec 15 depending on the calendar year (meaning get your photos done by this date if you want them for x-mas). Delivery of your completed team photos is FREE being sent to the contact person of your team.
- ACTION PHOTOS- Stafford Studios shoots live action photos at events like tournaments, all star days, playoff games etc...photos are displayed here on our website and can be ordered directly online. There is limited availability for these types of events however, but feel free to direct inquiries to us at 452-8326.
- CUSTOM WORK- If you can imagine it, chances are we can provide it to you. If you have an idea for a type of photo, a collage, a composite of multiple photos, a gift for coaches, an end of season gift for players, or anything else you might want, do not hesitate to give us a call and we can work directly with you to make sure your needs are met.
- PANORAMAS- A separate order form is used for this type of shoot...request this at time of booking. Essentially the panorama becomes your "team photo" and an individual portrait of each player is also available to order individual portrait items.
- COMPOSITES- Again, a separate order form is used for this type of shoot...request this at time of booking.
