"Children's Vintage Portraits offer a contemporary twist on the traditional practice of commissioning painted portraits. I begin by capturing a moment with a photograph, which is then edited to resemble a classic painted portrait. These portraits are crafted to capture the essence and importance of a person's heritage, preserving their legacy in a timeless and artistic manner. They serve as a meaningful way to honor and remember loved ones, preserving their memory for future generations."
Step 1
The first step in our process is a session design consultation. During this friendly discussion, we’ll go over a variety of styling options, what to wear, and dive into your specific goals for the session. This is a great opportunity for us to get to know each other and ensure the experience aligns with your vision. If you're feeling uncertain or need inspiration, I’m here to help! I can suggest ideas that will enhance the overall look and feel of your session.
Step 2
Once we’ve planned everything out, the session itself will typically last around two hours. During this time, we’ll create two to three different setups tailored to your preferences. Throughout the session, children will have their hair styled in fun and creative ways, allowing them to feel confident and look absolutely beautiful. Each hairstyle is designed to sparkle with personality, making the experience not just enjoyable but truly unforgettable!
Step 3
We are dedicated to delivering 3 to 5 beautiful and high-quality images of each child, capturing their unique personality and charm. In addition to individual portraits, we also offer sibling and family portraits to create lasting memories together. I will then apply artistic editing techniques to the photos, giving them a classic, painted appearance that enhances their beauty.
Approximately 3 to 4 weeks after your session, we will arrange for an in-person viewing or provide you with access to an online gallery. This will allow you to review all the images and select your favorite ones to keep and cherish.
These exquisite photographs are crafted with the purpose of being beautifully printed, elegantly framed, and proudly displayed on your walls. They are not just art pieces; they are treasures meant to be cherished and passed down through generations, bringing joy and inspiration to all who behold them.
