I am pleased to announce a new direction for
my motorsport photography enterprise. Gone are both the name Rainbow
Action Imagery and my partnership with web service DotPhoto. I will
now market photos under my own name, and will display our wide range
of motorsport photos on a dedicated website now hosted by Zenfolio.
At
gerryfrechette.zenfolio.com, you can look at all the photos from
an event in one place, pick the ones you like, and order them online
using a credit card. They will be printed on the best paper, and
mailed to you directly, just like before.
Here’s how to see your photos. Go to the website. Scroll down and
click on All My Photos. No user name or password is needed. The
albums will be displayed, and click on the one you are interested
in. The individual thumbnail photos will be displayed, along with a
price list. Refer to the following instructions to place your order
online.
1. Click on the photo you wish to purchase.
2. Click “Buy” above the photo, and select the photo size and
quantity you want. Click “Add to Cart.”
3. Repeat the process for other sizes and quantities, by clicking
“Buy More Products With Selected Photos,” or return to the front
page of the Album to select another photo to order and start over.
4. When finished shopping, click “View Shopping Cart” to confirm
your order. Within each photo in the cart, note the “cropping”
function. Zenfolio requires that you click on that to determine and
confirm how you want them printed, especially for sizes like 5x7 and
8x10 that are not standard “1x1.5” ratio. The options are Centered,
Fit and Manual, the latter allowing you to crop the photo any way
you like. The photo files are generally ample size for cropping down
to a single car in an image, but the larger the print size, the less
you should crop.
5. When you are all done ordering and checking the cropping, click
“Checkout Now.” At this stage, Zenfolio gives you the option of
registering for future ordering benefits (explained on the website)
or just simply checking out. Click “Continue” under your choice.
6. Follow instructions to enter shipping address and credit card
information.
Some things to note:
- Prices quoted are in both Canadian & U.S. dollars, so choose the
list that applies.
- In most cases, photos from an event should be on the website
within a few days after the event. To see photos from previous
years, contact us directly.
- If you want to just view your photos online and order directly
from us, we are happy to do that, too. Contact us by phone or e-mail
and tell us what you need, with code numbers. Prices are the same
with either method of ordering. We offer quantity discounts if
photos are ordered directly from us.
- All photos, either ordered through the website or directly from
us, are produced with laser technology on archival-quality photo
paper, just like from a negative. They are not ink-jet printed, and
will last as long as any other photo generated from a negative.
- After nine years with dotPhoto, this is a new direction for us,
and we hope your photo viewing and ordering experience is a good
one. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions
or problems, or to let us know that everything went well.
- I'll be uploading all this year's photos to Zenfolio, but the
previous years' photos still available for viewing at DotPhoto will
be removed at the end of the year, and the account closed. If you
are interested in ordering earlier photos, I ask you to please
contact me directly to order at gerryf@telus.net, and to not order
anything through DotPhoto. If you do, you will probably receive your
order and be billed, as usual, but I will not be paid anything,
hence why I am leaving DotPhoto.
Thank you, and if you have any questions or problems, please contact
Gerry or Sue at gerryf@telus.net
or phone 604-734-4721. |
