K. A. Piehl Photography - Janesville, Wisconsin

Dear Class of 2009 senior and parent,
With your senior year fast approaching, it’s time to plan for your senior portraits. If the idea of a really fun photo session, lots of image choices, great looking and affordable portraits appeals to you, there’s only one place to go:
K. A. Piehl Photography in Janesville.
In fact, nowhere else can you get the variety of photographic styles, expressions and selection options than you’ll find at K. A. Piehl.

It all starts with fun.

Your photographer, Ken, knows how to make you feel and look your very best. He combines craftsmanship with his people skills to put you at ease, so you enjoy your session. When you have fun, you hardly even know you’re being photographed. And when you feel good, you look great!

Your portraits won’t look like everyone else’s.

When you come for your session, Ken will spend time with you to find out the kinds of photographs you like (and also the kinds your parents like—their opinions count, too).
You can even bring in photos from magazines, Web sites and CD covers to have Ken create a look that’s unique to just you.
Don’t want to work that hard? No problem. When you arrive you will be able to look at lots of different senior portraits on display, so you can show Ken exactly what you want.
Regardless of what you choose, you are guaranteed to get a selection of images that is different from everyone else’s.
Portraits should express your personality. K. A. Piehl portraits don’t just show what you look like—they make a statement about you!

A hassle-free experience.

From the time you make your appointment until you pick up your finished portraits, you will enjoy your entire senior photography experience.
When you call you’ll get a color brochure on how to look your best in your portraits. You’ll know how to find us, what to bring, everything. We’ve thought of it all, so you don’t have to.
When you come for your portrait appointment, you’ll never be hurried or feel rushed. You can even have a friend or parent with you in the camera room, so they can make sure you look perfect.
And when you order your photographs, you’ll always get what you want, with no pressure of any kind.
At every step, you and your parents will be treated with the courtesy and respect you deserve as a K. A. Piehl client.

Prices to fit every budget.

All this extra help and preparation could cost an arm and a leg elsewhere, but not at K. A. Piehl.
You can choose from a wide variety of portrait packages beginning at just $129. Plus, you can take up to three months to pay, interest-free. So you’ll be able to get exactly the photographs you need, with price and payment terms to fit your lifestyle and budget.
When you compare image quality, selection variety, service and affordability, the choice for your senior portraits is clear: K. A. Piehl Photography!

When you think about it, what really matters the most are your photographs. Are they unique, or do they look like everyone else’s? Are the expressions and poses natural, or are they lame? Is the color realistic, or does the skin tone look pale or off-color? Take a look at the photographs in this catalog. Compare them side-by-side with anyone else’s and you’ll see there is a K. A. Piehl difference!

At K. A. Piehl Photography, you can choose your sessions to fit your personality. That way your portraits will reflect you in a natural, comfortable setting. Most seniors choose two or more sessions for best variety and value.

What you ultimately select for your finished images is entirely dependent on you. We recognize that everyone has different portrait needs based on personal desires, family, friends and budget.

Some studios try to make you buy one of their packages to fit your needs. We think it should be the other way around.

At K. A. Piehl, if you want one photo for yourself, a different one for Grandma and some wallets for your friends, you can get just that. If you need lots of images for yourself and to give away, that’s what you can get.

Minimum orders? Many studios have them, frankly because the quality of their work doesn’t support the prices they charge. At K. A. Piehl, you get what you want. Period.

So flexible is our menu that you can actually choose from five different ways to get your portraits. No other area studio offers this many options, which include:

Ala Carte

Perfect if you need just one portrait. Ala Carte gift portraits range from $29 to $69 for 5x7s and $39 to $89 for 8x10s, depending on the finish and quantity you need. Ala Carte wall portraits start at just $189 for 11x14s to $778 for 30x40 mural size.

Choose the sessions you want from the Sessions tab. You can’t get an appointment time unless you have picked your sessions. Most seniors choose two or more sessions for maximum variety.	The best times go quickly, and all the times sell out each year, so you don’t want to wait, even if you want a later appointment.	When you call, we’ll send you an appointment confirmation and an illustrated color brochure that will help you get ready for your session. If you have any questions, feel free to call us—we’re here to help!
