The Born & Raised Standard

Our Style

Traditional portraiture uses light to capture the contour of your child's features without losing detail.

Expression and posture work together to distinguish a sitting portrait from other modes of photography.

Our Standard

Heirlooms are not only for passing down, they are for passing by each day as your children grow up in your home.

They will want the same for their children. That is how traditions are kept alive.

Begin with intention

Where would an heirloom live in your home?

This guide walks you through a few simple questions to help clarify size, style, and direction before you decide anything.

“Everything about the process felt thoughtful — and the final product took my breath away.”
