De Vries Photography has offered to help us with an online pictorial directory that would be on our website. You can choose to have your picture taken downtown in their studio on 8th street (parking spots in the back) or we will arrange to have your picture taken here at church. This will take place in November of 2008. For snowbirds who are leaving before that, we can arrange to have your picture taken earlier. S

Some of the advantages are:

• No one has to buy their picture but they will keep your picture on file there for years so if a picture is needed in the future, they would release it
• As people have their picture taken in the studio, they will ask what they want to release under their picture such as activities in the church, hobbies, email, etc.
• These pictures would be password protected so that anyone who came to our website would not be able to see these pictures
• We can have other pictures on our website from activities at our church that would also be password protected
• About 60% of you that have your pictures taken usually buy something so that is why De Vries Photography can offer this.
• The staff had their pictures taken recently and had a good experience with it. Watch for more details as this project unfolds!
