Wichers Children's Highlights

03/17/2025

Our sale on the old highlight files will end on March 31st. If you want some of your files now is the time!

Subject: Cherished Memories – Your Children's Early Photographs
We still have your children's photographs! Just recently, a client asked about their daughter’s first birthday images, and we were thrilled to confirm that we have all Highlight theme images dating back to 2003.
Since we are no longer photographing Highlight sessions, we’ve decided to clean up our files. If you’d like to obtain digital copies of your children's past sessions, now is the perfect time! We can review your history, identify the sessions your kids participated in, and provide a list of available themes.
How to Get Started:
Simply email [email protected]. Within a few days, you'll receive a list of Highlight themes featuring your children—such as “Santa - 2003,” “Mudpies - 2005,” or “Tulips - 2006.” You can choose to purchase individual themes or all of them!
What You’ll Receive:
Your selected themes will be uploaded for you to download to your computer or phone, including every image captured during that session—both your favorites and unseen ones. Images will be provided in a size that is optimized for printing up to an 8x10 or using on social media. You’re free to print them, share on Instagram or Facebook, or surprise your partner with a digital file or a new print. The files are not copyrighted and will not carry our logo, making printing easy.
Cost:
To cover the time and effort of retrieving and uploading your files, we charge $35 per theme, plus tax. As a thank-you to our loyal clients, we’ve added a cap—after the first six themes, any additional themes are included at no extra cost. So, if you have 14 themes, you’ll only pay for the first six!
Next Steps:
email [email protected] to get started. You’ll receive an email within a couple of days listing your available themes. Once you’ve made your selections, we’ll send you a payment link and a download link.
This special offer is only available until April 1, 2025.
Thank you for your continued support!

P.S. We plan to continue working until Fall 2025 before retiring. In the meantime, we’re still offering photography services for seniors, families, and corporate clients. If you know someone interested in acquiring a 98-year-old photography business, send them our way!

The things you find when you are cleaning up old files. Images of my grandkids created March of 2004. We may be cleaning out our highlight files soon. More details coming soon.

I would like to thank all of our children's clients for the past 20 + years. We've done some interesting highlights, but we have decided to stop doing our highlights. This does not mean we are quitting photography. Just the highlights. We will still be doing corporate, events, leagues, seniors and family.

We have had so much fun with our themes, from mud pies to Hog heaven, bunnies and chicks, sports fan, watermelons, lemonade stand, sunflowers, life's a beach, fishing pond, fairies- wow we've had a blast.

We've had such a great relationship with our clients and we want you to have quality kids pictures made, especially with Christmas and Santa Ken. My good friend Ken Doll is taking our Saturday in Nov, and he does an excellent job if you want to continue with Santa Ken. Here is a link to book your appointment with Ken Doll and Santa Ken.

CHILDREN'S HIGHLIGHTS! - 2023 Schedule

Over the course of the past 40 years Mark has photographed thousands of children. We started our highlight program in 2001.
As we get older the ability to photograph kids becomes more difficult. So in 2023 we will only have two highlights.
This does not mean we are quitting photography, only that after 2023 we no longer be photographing the highlights.

We will have a Family portrait day on location July 29th, and
Santa will be with us on Nov 11th and 12th. This will be the last Highlight.
So as always call and schedule your times. 785-271-5355

Same prices, more digital options. See your photographs immediately following your photography.

Highlight sessions are available by appointment only and do require a deposit. At the time of booking your session a $25 deposit is paid ($25 per session booked), this will show up as a credit towards your final order. (Deposit can be paid over the phone via credit card/ by sending a check through the mail/ or dropping by and paying in person) A typical session takes about 20 minutes and you will see the photographs immediately following the session. We will take many poses and you will pick your favorites. It normally takes about 30 minutes to view your photographs and make decisions. Your photographs are ready in 2 weeks.
Call 785-271-5355 to schedule your appointment now.
