The origen of the quinceañera dates back hundreds of years to Aztec culture.  They are elaborate, festive occasions that celebrate a girl's coming of age at 15.  The term is Spanish for "15 years" and the special day usually begins with a church celebration and culminates in a party with many special traditions and they are events on the scale of a wedding.

The Princess II:   Heirloom portrait session / 11x14 framed / Photography of your special day / minimum of 150 4"x 6" portraits in a white "Mis Quince Años" proof album

This package consists of a portrait session of the quinceañera about a month before the party.  From this portrait session, you may choose your favorite pose for the 11x14 reception portrait which we frame and deliver to you on the day of the celebration.  With this package, you'll receive a minimum of 150 4x6 prints of the reception portrait session and the quinceañera day celebration in a white proof album that says "Mis Quince Años" on the cover.  This package is $1100.

Note:  We truly believe that the portrait book tells such a beautiful story, much more than 4x6's three to a page, behind plastic and needing to be flipped around depending on whether the picture you are looking at was taken in vertical or horizontal format.  But if your heart is set on 4x6's in an album, we want to make that choice available to you.
