PRINT YOUR PHOTOS! [A canvas special...]

I’m a BIG believer in printing your photos. Even though we're in a highly digital age, I think photos are meant to be PRINTED and DISPLAYED. You may think that canvas prints are too expensive, but really, it’s the most affordable type of art for your walls. Canvases are still an investment but they hold such great sentimental value. If you’ve always thought about adding a canvas (or two!) to your walls but haven’t made the leap quite yet, here's a little encouragement to do so... I’m running a special for FOUR DAYS ONLY (8/13 through 8/16). This will be my best deal EVER on canvas pricing. Here are the details:

A 16x20" ready-to-hang canvas gallery wrap is $80 off: $169 (normally $249).
A 16x24” ready-to-hang canvas gallery wrap is $100 off: $219 (normally $319).

Each canvas is hand stretched on a custom-built frame, printed with ink rated to last 100 years and spray sealed with a UV inhibitor coat. Your order is shipped directly to you - shipping cost included! I will only offer a very limited amount of these so please contact me by 5 p.m. EST on Sunday, August 16th (first come, first served). Here’s how it works:

1. Email mel [at] melissatuckphoto [dot] com and let me know which photo(s!) you'd like to use.
2. I’ll email you a proof back of the cropped photo and your total amount due (discounted price + tax).
3. You check off on the proof, and I’ll order your new canvas print!

I want to leave you with a couple of examples of how we display canvases in our house. The first is in our living room. Our wedding photo on the right goes so nicely with the painting from Ryan's Granny. And the bottom collage is from our bedroom. I'll be ordering more of Brooklyn at an older age soon, but I have to leave some room for her baby bro. ; )


Colette: Newborn // Germantown, MD Newborn Photographer

Sweet, darling Colette. She is the third child of our dear friends Natalie and Mike. I photographed their wedding over five years ago now (!!!!). We couldn't be happier for them! Here are a few snaps from her session at six days old.


Oliver: Newborn // Washington, DC Newborn Photographer

Oliver was a wise little dude of 8 days old when I shot his newborn photos. His lips and chin combined had me smiling so big! I loved his charming nursery; his grandfather MADE his crib and I adored the eclectic mix of D.C. details. Enjoy this sweet face and his proud parents!


Paige: Newborn // Raleigh, NC Newborn Photographer

Three years after shooting Claire & Blake's wedding, I traveled to North Carolina to photograph their sweet baby girl at 9 days old. Claire and I have been friends for a long time, and it just makes me SO happy to see friends' families grow. Enjoy this sweetheart and the family-of-three shots at the end (there's a hilarious one of Blake with Paige)!


BENJAMIN: BABY

First off, BIG ANNOUNCEMENT! This will be my last post on this blog. I am switching companies and moving all of my content (portfolio & blog) to one space next week. The kinks and minor details haven't quite been worked out yet, so it'll definitely be a work in progress, but I am excited about the transition to a more simple and clean format. I look forward to sharing my new site with y'all soon! Now... Benjamin! Last month I got to photograph this handsome little dude just shy of five weeks! Benjamin came into the world fast and furiously (and ~seven weeks early to the surprise of his parents!). Even though it wasn't a true newborn session -- within the 6-10 days after birth -- he was still picture-perfect. And I LOVED the details in his nursery! Enjoy this sweet, sweet baby boy.
