Should we trust the Cloud with our memories?
How reliable is the Cloud in storing your images and memories? Will it be there for ever? That is a big question for our industry.
One of the things we take great pride in at Woolf Photography is that we have a Photographic Archive (our Photographic "Memory Bank", if you like) that spans over 80 years. What we don't store on our servers, we have preserved on disc, and prior to that (1980's), we keep at the Te Papa Archives.
Why, you say? Well, our family business has been taking Wellington's photographic Biography (and that of others) for all that time, and we see it as a precious visual legacy.
But times they are a-changing, as Bob Dylan once said... so while we do offer customers the choice of purchasing their images digitally instead of in print, we still feel that having a tangible record of your images (be they framed on your wall or laid out in a beautiful album) elevates them from shareable "sight-bites" to keepsakes and objects of beauty that ensure your legacy; a piece of history that you can pass on.
So why not pop in and see what we can do to preserve your memories today?
To ask about Custom Framing, Printing and our Albums, call us on (04) 917 68 61, or email info@woolf.co.nz. These make wonderful gifts for Christmas.
Smitten with a kitten
Family Photography for Pet Lovers: Meet Mara the Silver Burmese pussy cat...
Lyn brought her kitten Mara for a photo shoot in our Wellington City Photography Studio last month...
Mara, a 5-month old silver Burmese, is Lyn’s baby, and Lyn was keen to get a series of photos that convey the love and emotion she feels for this kitten.
We had so much fun! Mara explored the Studio and posed beautifully for Jess Dewsnap, one of our talented Portrait Photographers. Of course, the doors of the Studio were shut and the area was secured (in case Mara escaped!), but this beautiful kitten was so good, Jess managed to capture the strong connection between them both.
So next time you are thinking of booking a Family Portrait Shoot, feel free to include your pet (in our Studio or in a location of your choice!) - after all, they are a huge part of the family- they bring laughter, cuddles and unconditional love.
So Pet Lovers, Call Toni if you have any questions regarding Pet and Family Photography on (04) 917 68 61.
Remember: Christmas is around the corner, and Family photos make a beautiful gift. You can also check out our Vouchers for more ideas on giving this Christmas.
Super Cuba-Dupa
See you next year #Cubadupa, #Wellington, #funinthecity, #community
Cuba Dupa, Wellington’s newest incarnation of the Cuba Street Carnival was a triumphant success! After two years of uncertainty (will the City Council approve the new venture or will it not?), the organisers pulled out all the stops, got the community involved, re-branded and produced a terrific event that we all look forward to again next year!
We sent down a crew to check it out- and if you weren’t there, you really missed something. It was an eclectic playground of colour, tastes and surprising encounters. Doug’s images only tell part of the story…
See you next year #Cubadupa, #Wellington, #funinthecity, #community, #wellingtonphotographers
