Do you remember the 5 inch floppy drives? They were replaced by the 3 1/4 inch floppy drives. Then came the Compact Disc, followed by the DVD, followed by the Blu-ray. Now we have CF cards, SD Cards, Micro SD cards, USB thumb drives, USB 3 thumb drives.  What will be next?  Heck, my latest laptop doesn't even have a disc/dvd drive.  How about forty-fives, or LP albums?  What about eight-track tapes, cassette tapes, Beta tapes, VHS and on and on? The sales of Blu-ray movies are dropping every year.  People can now watch a movie through Netflix or some other streaming service. Technology constantly evolves.  Larger, faster and cheaper is always around the corner. Here is a harsh reality of modern times; this generation is the most photographed generation ever, but it has the least amount of printed photographs.

The expressions that I have seen when clients open the wrapped portraits I deliver are priceless, from sheer awe to tears. I create Portraits that adorn your home and capture a moment of time than can be passed on to the next generation.

Digital files risk becoming useless if transferred onto a digital medium that becomes obsolete in ten years. However, I must keep in mind and I understand we live in a digital world. I have been asked by several clients for digital files that can be posted on social media.  So the short answer to the common question is yes; digital files are available.  Not only are they available, they are included in most of the packages offered by Lakehouse Photography. This is discussed during the consultation.
