1. Discovery Call: A 15-minute phone call to discuss your project and portrait needs
2. Portrait Planning and Concept Meeting: We plan your portrait concept, how your portraits will live in your home, and, of course, what you will be wearing.
3. Portrait Session: We have a blast creating portraits together.
4. Design + Order Appointment: Generally, immediately follow the portrait session, this is decision-making time for your final design.
5. Art Install or Pick-up: The best part of the process is receiving your final artwork. Wall installations are provided for large feature pieces and gallery designs.

It’s never too early to book your portrait session! Many clients will book months in advance to get the time/date that works best for their families/businesses. We recommend booking at least four-six weeks in advance to give plenty of time for wardrobe items and beauty appointments to be made. Our end-of-summer and fall dates will be booked out much further in advance. We will schedule your Portrait Planning and Concept Meeting at least a week before your session. If you are on a tighter timeline, reach out for current booking availability.

Deciding where to showcase your portraits is one of the first things we discuss in our Discovery Call. Every family is different. Usually, the stage of life in your family tends to affect portrait placement. For example, families with young kids might want playful wall art for the playroom. Families with high school seniors graduating might wish to have a picture in the main living area where they will be more present in their minds.

When you leave the Portrait Planning and Concept Meeting, you will have a clear idea of placement location and where they may transition after your next stage of family portraits.

During the Design + Order appointment, you will select 40-50 proofs
