A guided portrait experience

Styling, the session, your proofs and the design of your finished artwork, all in one studio.

What is included

Each commission includes:

โ€ข Complimentary studio wardrobe and bow options โ€ข A guided portrait session for your family โ€ข A curated proof gallery โ€ข An Heirloom Design Appointment to select your artwork โ€ข Professional retouching of final portraits โ€ข Printing and custom framing completed in our studio

WE DESIGN THE ARTWORK AROUND THE PORTRAITS.

Every sitting is built to end as finished artwork on your wall.

Why we do it this way

If you choose to trust us with your family's heirlooms, we choose to respect that investment by seeing it to the end. You don't have to know what you want, where it will go, when to come back for more. You are investing in our knowledge of the process to ensure you walk away with a piece that is appropriate for your style, your budget, and the chapter of childhood we are capturing. We have limited availability for new clients as we have committed to serving our families through the entire span of childhood.

What a professional session should cost, and why.

Our reservation is $1,000, and $500 of it returns to you as credit toward your finished artwork.

At our studio, families typically invest $1,500 to $5,000 in their portrait collection.

These are our studio's prices. Photographers in the directory set their own.
