Why McNeil Designer Portraits is Different

Through the art of both classical art and imaging technology, Craig McNeil has developed a photographic style that is unique among portrait photographers.

Craig offers clients a totally unique family portrait experience and an art quality finished product. Unlike other photographers who “do it all,” Craig specializes exclusively in Family Wall Portraits on Canvas.

After over 20 years in business, it’s what he does best, and he’s acclaimed as the #1 family portrait photographer in Colorado.

Clients who choose Craig McNeil for their family portrait enjoy outstanding service from a dedicated, specialized professional.

They’re treated to working with a photographer who:

1. Offers a 100% "Thrilled to Tears" guarantee. Craig McNeil will go the extra mile to see that you are absolutely THRILLED with your final portrait. He absolutely guarantees you will be THRILLED, not just satisfied with your photographs. If you aren’t crying tears of joy over your portrait, Craig will do whatever it takes to make you thrilled or remake your portrait at no charge to you! Craig believes that if you don’t love your portrait, he should do everything as humanly possible to see that you do.!

2. Loves working with people! A photographer who’s cranky, bossy, egotistical or abrupt can’t possibly capture an image of a happy family having a great time. Craig’s upbeat personality, positive attitude, and enthusiasm about working with families ensures your entire family will enjoy the entire portrait process. When you choose to work with Craig McNeil, you can look forward to having a great time!

3. Makes the entire portrait process as convenient as possible. When you work with Craig, the photographer comes to you! Craig brings the studio to you, so you can design your portrait and review your images in the comfort of your own home. Scheduling is also designed to be as convenient as possible for clients. Craig will even deliver and hang your finished family portrait!

If you live outside Colorado, special arrangements can be arranged for an Online Design Consultation or Projection Session.

4. Creates a family portrait designed with YOU in mind. Your portrait is based on your ideas, what’s important to you and what you want it to say about your family.

5. Provides personalized, dedicated service to clients one at a time. When you go out location with Craig, you have all of his attention and your family is the focus. There won’t be a flood of families standing in line waiting behind you.

6. Takes as much time and as many images as are needed to capture your family’s very best images. There’s no limit on how much film is used or how much time is spent on location capturing the images you have in mind.

7. Works Year Round! Everything we do is outside on location (we don’t even offer studio sessions) and we work all four seasons. How about in the spring when nature is in full bloom or perhaps you want as snow scene typical of a Currier and Ives Christmas Card? Do you prefer fall colors or the lush greens of the summer? I work year round so anytime of year is a great time to do your portrait.

8. Painstakingly edits your final images and presents “the best of the best” for your review on the latest state-of-the-art projection system. You’ll view your images on an 80 inch large format screeen set to music so you can see the fine details of each photograph.

9. Travels to the location of your choice, anywhere in the world! You can have your portrait done in your favorite Colorado location, or arrange for a portrait safari to an exotic location of your choosing.

10. Offers life-size family portraits other photographers won’t or are not able to produce.

11. Takes pride in hand-finishing and signing your final portrait the old fashioned way! Your final portrait is a one of a kind, original work of personal family art.

It couldn’t be easier to take the first step to make your family portrait happen!

“… it is an investment well made.”

As I walk by our family portrait every day, I pause and admire how well you captured each and every one of us. You encapsulated a moment in time and place, and that I will always cherish. It seemed an ordinary day when you took the photo, but now it is a day rendered permanent and special in your photograph. There is no doubt that this piece of art (for it is art) will be treasured for many, many years to come. We are so glad that we decided to do this, and feel that it is an investment well made. Thank you, thank you.

Sincerely,
Jennifer Corbet & Family
