PROOFS & REVISIONS

After we prepare the proofs we want you to be satisfied with the designs. Remember, we take pride in custom designing your collages and would love to work with you to incorporate any changes that you may have with your collage designs.

You may request…

• placement of specific pictures within the design
• changes to the background color
• pictures’ border width, shadow or color
• change to the poster orientation
• change to caption font style or color
• placement of the caption on the collage

Proofs will be clearly marked with the proof number and the pictures in the collage are individually marked with numbers. You may refer to the proof numbers and the picture numbers when requesting any changes. Once we get your response, we prepare the final design within one business day and get it printed after your order is paid in full.

See the Collagist Proof Instructions document for more information.

PHOTO COLLAGE GALLERY PRINTS

The canvas print will be gallery wrapped and can be displayed without a frame. Your canvas will be sealed with our 100+ year protective top coat, then skillfully mounted on thick, heavy-duty 1-1/2″ solid wood stretcher bars. We can use the collage background color on the sides of the gallery wrap to make the canvas look great from any angle. With Standard shipping, the canvas print takes 5-10 business days to reach you in a protective packaging.

Canditto is a patent-pending kiosk that collects the photos your guests have taken at your wedding, party, or reception.  It produces a USB flash drive of all the guests pictures by the end of the night.
Canditto units are rented to clients.  The $450 rental fee* includes everything: round trip shipping, your keepsake memory cards, and all the support you might ever want.

Short 2 minute video on the service:

This is a good business model where user generated content (in this case friends and family that came to the event) is put in the hands of (literally in their hands via a thumb drive) the host.  The business has a feel of customer interacting and touching the hardware and enjoying the pictures digitally.  Few important points about the business:

• instant gratification
• novel and still old style
• creative use of user generated content
• good word of mouth or referral marketing potential

This is a niche that we thought about before but did not quite work out how the delivery and interaction of the device (Kiosk).  Rush from Canditto definitely has great plans and he has already talking about non-wedding events and we wish him well.
