children's portrait photography
A return to tradition, to artistry, to the creation of timeless heirlooms that last.
Legacy through fine art
Rooted in classic bust-style framing and inspired by vintage vignette studies, each portrait is designed to honor your child’s presence with simplicity and care.
Each commissioned portrait is printed on fine art canvas and hand-finished with subtle brushwork. Your piece will arrive ready to frame, or you may choose from my curated collection of sourced and found frames at the sitting. If you select a frame, I will personally complete the professional framing so your artwork is ready to hang and enjoy for generations.
Hand-Finished and ready to display
Inspired by the past
Portrait sessions are offered during select studio days, hosted events, and private in-home gatherings across Michigan.
