The portrait your grandmother had framed
You know the one. A little one in a smocked bishop or a crisp Peter Pan collar, on a clean white background, softly framed in a white vignette. No props and no trends. Just your child's face, at this exact age.
It's still hanging in your parents' hallway. It looked beautiful then, and it'll look beautiful when your grandchildren ask about it. These aren't gallery-to-drive photos. They're the portrait.
What's Included
One sitting. One price. Ready to frame.
No guessing what it'll cost after the session. Your price covers the sitting, your edited images, and a matted print that's ready for the wall.
A private 15-minute sitting at my Piedmont studio on Jan. 30th
5 professionally edited portraits, each in color and black and white
One 8×10 matted heirloom print of your favorite, ready to frame
A private proof gallery to choose your favorites
A wardrobe guide the moment you book, so you're not guessing

The Sitting
Short on purpose
Little ones are at their best in short bursts. Fifteen focused minutes keeps them relaxed, and that's when the soft, natural expressions show up.
Siblings each get their own sitting, back-to-back, so every child gets my full attention. Done before anyone needs a snack.
What to Wear
Their Sunday best (yes, the smocking)
Smocked bishops and bubbles, Peter Pan collars, John Johns, bloomers, knee socks, a bow or a bonnet. White, ivory, and soft pastels are beautiful against the white vignette.
Keep it simple. Nothing trendy in the frame means nothing that looks dated later. Your wardrobe guide arrives the minute you book.
For Christmas
The gift they'll actually frame
For the grandparents who say they don't need anything, and the mama who's been meaning to book "the portrait" for two years. Tuck it in a stocking, and the family picks their time.
Covers everything: the sitting, 5 edited portraits, and the matted print | $300
Arrives instantly by email, ready to print or forward, even on Christmas Eve
First pick of times: gift card holders book before anyone else
No risk: if the day doesn't work for them, it applies to any heirloom sitting in 2027

No. Every child gets a private sitting, a full heirloom edit, and a print made for the wall. It's one special day, not a rush of back-to-back families.
-
Never required. Your price includes your 5 edited portraits and a matted print. If you fall in love with more, extra prints, framing, and wall art are available, but that's completely up to you.
-
From the time your baby can sit up on their own through school age. Not sure? Just ask.

Little ones are little. We go at their pace, and the short sitting helps a lot. If they're sick, we will reschedule your session.
