The Portrait Process: In Studio and On Location

Our process begins with a personalized portrait consultation where we discuss your vision, preferred clothing, and the overall mood you want to convey. We offer both in-studio and on-location sessions to accommodate your preferences. For in-studio sessions, our professional studio is equipped with state-of-the-art lighting gear and various camera systems. The result is a custom-designed set that aligns seamlessly with your vision for the engagement portrait.

Our studio is thoughtfully designed with private dressing rooms, surround sound acoustics, and tethered monitors that allow you to review images during the session on a 22” flat panel, offering a more comprehensive view than the back of a camera. In-studio portrait sessions typically last between 45 minutes to 1 hour, ensuring ample time to capture the nuances of your connection.
