The Family Portrait

Family groupings are done in your home or done at an outdoor location or in our studio.  We want your family to look natural and relaxed.  For this reason, we do not recommend in studio family groupings of more than five people.  Good locations are those where you spend family time.  Your home, cottage, the beach or on the family boat are some suggestions.

Clothing preparation for groups is a major concern.  Solids are highly recommended. Prints, patterns and stripes distract and can clash with patterns worn by another family member.  The best advice is to think of the entire family’s apparel as one outfit.  Meaning, don’t put a print or color on another family member that you would not add to your own outfit.  Everyone’s clothing should blend and go together.  If you need assistance in this area, we’re more than happy to help out.  A little planning here will result in a far superior final product.

Also take into consideration the room where the portrait will hang.  It’s best to wear colors that will complement the décor of the room.  If the intended room is decorated in pastels or other light colors, keep your clothing light as well.  The frame should also be light in color.  If the portrait is planned to hang in a darker room, such as a den, library or above a heavily wooded fireplace mantle, then select clothing in the darker shades such as burgundy, plum, deep greens and navy.  Khaki works well with light and dark colors.  Having the portrait taken in the room where it will hang is a wonderful idea, the colors of the room will be reflected in the portrait!

Payment Information

All session fees are due at the time your session is scheduled.  A 48 hour notice is required if you cancel or reschedule your session to receive a credit on your session fees.  If the 48 hours notice is not given, the session fees paid are non refundable.  Once you have completed your session, we will book an appointment for you to come in and view your portraits.  This will be approximately 3 days after your session.  All orders should be placed on this day, so it is very important for all family members purchasing pictures to be present at this viewing.  Additional viewings are done at $60/hr. or waived for a one hour viewing with an order of $500.  Once you place your order, 50% of the balance is required to start processing your order.  The remaining balance will be due upon completion of your order.  Partial orders will not be delivered without the balance paid in full.
