FAQs

Q: What are PAINTERLY PORTRAITS?

A: Painterly portraits is a photography finishing style that we have developed to give your photos a fabulous look. This look is very unique and we are the only photography studio in the area who specializes in PAINTERLY PORTRAITS. We photograph you, then we paint your photograph to give it that timeless painterly glow, so when you print it on a big print or canvas, it is truly a magnificent finished product. We offer our painterly portraits with some of our collections or a la carte.

Q: What is the difference between portraits and personal branding sessions?

A: Portrait photography has changed so much now, it has become more vanity fair style photoshoot than the old style portrait sitting. The stunning makeup, the gorgeous hair, the styled cloth, and accessories.. the photoshoots are more like a full magazine experience, like a celebrity style photoshoot.

Personal branding is a contemporary professional business portrait of you, we have a unique style and our brand is unique and flourishing around the world. We start with a modern headshot set then move more toward personal branding and portraits that bring out your personality.

We will discuss your needs and desired style in the consultation. You might be that casual glam Calvin Klein model style or the super glam evening gown or maybe the traditional elegance style… We will discuss your shoot’s expectations and build your experience based on your needs… I personally always try to add a production of that gorgeous timeless vintage woman to each photoshoot. Also, we will discuss what sort of cloth you will bring or if you need help buying or renting gowns, we have a collection of different sizes and colors in our wardrobe too.

Q: How much is the session fee? And what does it include?

A: The session fee is $375 and it includes the consultation, wardrobe consultation and sets preparation, the photoshoot, the reveal, and of course hair and makeup styling.

Q: I know someone who needs this experience and I would love to gift them a photoshoot or more.
