A quality studio portrait sitting can cost hundreds of dollars. Throw in the cost of prints and the hassle of going out of your way to the studio and it's no wonder why people only get studio photographs once or twice in their entire lifetime. But with today's Groupon, $40 gets you a photography session at your favorite greater Seattle location and a package of prints from Nancy Treder Photography. The 73% off the normal $150 value should result in a 73% broader smile—exactly the amount needed for a lasting portrait. And the option to buy multiple Groupons means you can finally get a cowlick-free shot of those you love. Nancy Treder will have you beaming in a portrait that is sure to make your holiday card, headshot, or senior picture one you'll hang on to for a lifetime.

Executive Dry Cleaners' professional garment purifiers free nice attire of grime at their Belltown outpost. Their hands-on, water-free treatment erases stains and signs of everyday wear from the fibers of tops, bottoms, and dresses, and their wash-and-fold services clean up piles of laundry while clients run errands or mud wrestle in their favorite overcoat.

A collaboration between a fine-art photography studio and a pinup-style salon, Seattle Boudoir Photography creates a fun and professional environment for their sultry photo shoots. In preparation for the sessions, a team member guides clients through wardrobe selection and a variety of creative themes. The onsite salon staff helps customers channel these different looks and personalities with professional makeup applications, and a stylist stands by for consultation on poses and how to use hair mousse to make chocolate mousse.

Seattle Boudoir Photography invites clients to further explore their sensual side during photo packages inspired by the hit erotic fiction trilogy Fifty Shades of Grey. Each session centers around a 45-minute shoot that begins in a light-flooded loft space or on a private rooftop deck, then ends on the studio’s private Red Room set. Subjects can start off with a simple, flirty outfit, then course through increasingly tantalizing ensembles that showcase the different aspects of their personality and sexuality. The Shades packages feature other playful perks, including hors d’oeuvres, champagne, and a private big-screen debut of the subject’s best shots. The studio can memorialize the prints in photo albums, calendars, and Guess Who board-game cards.

Married for nine years and a photography team for five, Brian and Jennifer Hartman bring an artistic touch and approach to their on-location photography. Employing a photojournalistic style and dramatic lighting, they capture solo subjects and groups during posed and candid moments, earning critical acclaim from the Artistic Guild of the Wedding Photojournalist Association and The Knot and placing images in the pages of Elle and Seattle Bride magazines.

Not content to simply point and shoot, the Hartmans light compositions using chiaroscuro or high-exposure natural lighting and often accentuate subjects with extreme angles, forced perspective, or unique natural surroundings. They shoot in vibrant color or black and white, and can edit photos to enhance colors or, by request, replace each subject’s face with Winston Churchill’s. Though the Hartmans use professional tools, they’re glad to help students break into photography via ultra-accessible devices such as the iPhone—following in the footsteps, they note, of Annie Leibovitz, who endorsed the iPhone’s camera on NBC Nightly News in 2011. When not conducting on-location sessions, Brian also leads large-scale workshops in which they pass on their knowledge through graphic slideshows and hands-on training.
