Today we had a Portrait Party hosted by Vaishali. She was a gracious hostess, and everyone had a great time! It was so much fun to shoot portraits of five families. The kids were all adorable, and we sometimes lost track of time because we were having so much fun.

Below find some of our favorite photos from this session!

On Saturday we had a Portrait Session with Joe. We went to his beautiful apartment to take a portrait that Joe could use for both his businesses, as well as to give to his children, and grandchildren.

Joe was very nice, and even offered to get us some pizza! We enjoyed listening to his stories about his travels and his family, and we were very proud he chose us to do his portrait. It had been over 20 years ago since Joe had a formal portrait done, so we made sure this portrait was timeless!

After we were done, Joe referred to the portrait session as “Painless photography.” That is exactly what we go for, we want our customer to not stress out to get your portraits taken, but rather enjoy the experience.

Here are some of our picks!

We have had the pleasure of shooting Isabella’s Christmas Portraits for almost three years now. This time the adorable two-and-half year old came to our studio dressed in her Christmas best!

Isn’t she absolutely adorable? Isabella is always a pleasure to work with, and this time was no exception!

Below see some of our favorite photos

This afternoon we had a Basic Portrait Package with Bob, Kathy, and Jacquelyn. They wanted to have a portrait to put on their holiday cards, which we’ll be designing for them.

We won’t share the holiday card design on the blog, but we will show the portrait they picked:

Today we had an Ultimate Portrait Session with David, Rachel, Jennifer, Emily, and Michael. We had a lot of fun taking their portraits, and the results are phenomenal.

There are too many photos to show here, so we just picked a few of our favorites:
