Great Portraits Require Planning
Our goal is to create stunning portrait artwork worthy of displaying prominently in your home.
The Portrait Session
90 MINUTES: We reserve 90 minutes for every portrait session. Don’t worry, we won’t be taking photos for the full 90 minutes! The actual time you will spend in front of the camera will probably be closer to 30-45 minutes. We schedule plenty of extra time to allow for incidentals.
POSES: We will photograph all of the breakdowns within your family group. There is no extra charge for including extended family, within your allotted timeframe. So bring Grandma and Grandpa, and maybe the family dog too!
WARDROBE: Will you dress formal, casual, or somewhere in between? Focus on selecting outfits that compliment each other, rather than identically match.
The View & Order Session
90 MINUTES: We reserve 90 minutes for every view and order session. Most people find that they can make their decisions in 45-60 minutes. However, we like to include extra time so you won’t feel rushed.
WHAT WE WILL DO: During this appointment you will be viewing your portrait images via projection and making decisions about what portrait products and sizes you will purchase for your home.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND: Any adults that will have input on the final purchasing decisions, financially or aesthetically. Online proofing is not available and all custom portrait orders are taken in-person at the studio.
Portrait Artwork Products and Finishes

PETITE PORTRAITS: Petite portraits are available in 5x7 and 8x10 sizes and start at $350. These are great for the smaller areas in your home, such as bookshelves or desks, and also great for gifting to family!
DIGITAL IMAGES: For those only interested in obtaining all of the digital files, our sessions might not be well suited for you. Our focus is to create printed portrait products for your family to treasure for a lifetime. However, we do understand that most clients enjoy creating their own holiday cards or sharing images on social media, so most of our portrait products include the matching digital images.
PORTRAIT PACKAGES: We offer a “create your own package” which offers up to 20% off your purchase, allowing you to get exactly the items you truly want.
Framing and Installation
TURN-AROUND TIME: Most orders are completed and ready for pick-up or installation within 4-6 weeks. Larger sizes and Masterpiece Portraits can take longer. Delivery and installation is included with Portraits 20 inches and larger.
CUSTOM FRAMING: We have hand-picked a selection of frames that complement our portrait-style and are sure to look great in your home.
