Fine Art Personality Portraits

CELEBRATING CHILDHOOD

The way their nose scrunch, the freckles, and the beauty in the rawness of childhood make these portraits unique and powerful. You can expect timeless portraits of your child in a minimalist fashion highlighting their unique personality.

How does it work?

I work directly with your child's school to bring a simple process when it comes to ordering school pictures. It's as easy as "1,2,3!"

Fill out the mandatory permission slip sent to your school and get your child portrait ready!

1.

Ensure your child is present on Picture Day. There are no reschuled "make up" days.

2.

Watch for your child's private gallery sent directly to your email and order digitals and/or prints.

What to Expect With

PERSONALITY PORTRAITS

These are not your average school portraits, with unnecessary props and colorful backdrops that distract from your child's personality. These are 100% candid and reflect your child. I will ask your child to be silly, make faces, and get them to laugh. I will not force your child to participate or smile if they don't want to but will encourage them through simple games.

Each child will have a private gallery conveniently emailed to you with a minimum of 3-5 images in color and black and white. Some children may have larger galleries, and you will be provided with the option to purchase individual images and/or the entire gallery.

I offer a wide range of products with competitive pricing that fits your families budget. 10% of all sales are donated back to your school.

To keep things simple for the school, I handle all communication. If you have any questions, please click the contact button below.

Frequently Asked Questions

How can we book you for our wedding?

I want to offer my couples the highest quality service possible. For this reason, I only attend a limited number of weddings per year. Therefore, booking your date 6-12 months before your wedding is best. After a free consultation, I will put together an individual wedding package where I can specifically address your wishes, needs, and ideas. As soon as I have received your signed contract and the 25% non-refundable deposit is required to secure your wedding date.
Are you available for travel?

I love to travel. I am based out of the Central Coast of California but willing to travel throughout the U.S for destination weddings. My travel expenses vary depending upon different locations. The cost of traveling to and from the destination, as well as possible accommodation and meals is very individual. If you are traveling for your wedding, we can always discuss your ideas and requirements with me. I will be happy to create a customized package tailored to fit your needs.
Do we need a second photographer?

I recommend that you also opt for a second shooter if 80+ guests are attending your wedding day. This is the best way if you don’t want to miss out on any candid moments or unique details. When so many guests are accompanying you at a wedding party, it becomes easy to capture all the beautiful moments with the help of a professional second photographer. For example, when we are off capturing stunning bridal portraits, the second shooter can take candid pictures of your guests!
How long does it take to get our photos?

Wedding galleries can take up to six weeks as an industry standard. We strive to deliver your gallery within two weeks. Please be aware that in any busy season, this may change. We will let you know if I expect it to be any longer than a couple of weeks.
How many pictures will we get?

As a wedding photographer, I want to capture pictures that embody the true essence of your big day. On average, 50 to 60 pictures are clicked per hour on the wedding day. This may vary depending on whether I accompany you alone or with a second shooter. After taking the pictures, I make a qualitative selection of your images, finalizing them for special touch-ups. Blurred and shaky shots are excluded. The final touchup includes adjustment of lightening and contrast and alignment of your pictures with special attention to natural retouching. We do not change any inherent qualities of a person. Additional cosmetic adjustments cant be made at an additional cost. You will receive your images in high resolution in digital jpg format.
