how it works
STEP ONE | Custom Planning
“Begin With the End in Mind” - Stephen Covey You want beautiful handcrafted portraits and having a well planned vision is the very first step. We will collaborate to design how you would like to enjoy your portraits. Perhaps you want to make an impact with an over-the-top, modern portrait to hang above your fireplace.. Maybe you’ve always wanted to design a gallery wall that includes vintage family photos paired the new ones we create together.. Oh! What about telling your story with a luxurious, expertly handcrafted Italian leather, bespoke album for the coffee table in the family room? During the planning stage we will choose the theme, wardrobe, and location of your photo shoot to marry your style with the vision we create!
The one-on-one Design Consultation sets the stage for our ultimate goal - creating beautiful and timeless custom art work for you and your family to enjoy for generations to come.

STEP TWO | Portrait Session
For Beauty portraits we begin with complimentary professional makeup and hair styling to get you looking and feeling fresh, beautiful and camera ready. Whether we choose studio or on-location (or both!) I will guide you through different poses, expressions and “what to do with your hands!?” Beauty portraits are perfect for just you OR enjoy the session with your mom, daughter, sister, or love of your life! Who are you bringing?
Family Portraits are a special occasion and we will take as much time as we need to get it right. I want to deliver the perfect, polished portraits while also capturing the bursts of laughter and the soft and tender moments that speak to who you are. I want you to LOVE your images. Large family, small family, extended family- everyone is invited to join! Together we will create your legacy.
STEP THREE | The Big Reveal
About one week after your photo shoot, we will meet for your Reveal & Ordering appointment. Your Reveal & Order appointment is the time set aside to finalize your portrait order, so be sure and schedule a time when all decision makers are available.
Using state-of-the-art software and photos of the walls in your home, I will show your portraits scaled onto your walls, which solves the problem of what size to order; not too big, not too small, but just right! And there is no minimum, you only buy what you love.
You’ll be guided every step of the way using the goals we created from the design consultation to achieve your vision for your portraits. Once your handcrafted products arrive from Italy, I will hand-deliver and install them your home!
