Your family portraits deserve more than a fleeting moment on a phone screen—they deserve a place of honor in your home. As a Washington DC family photographer specializing in finished products, I offer a fully customized approach to creating photographic wall art. This isn’t one-size-fits-all. From the first conversation to the final delivery, every detail is tailored to your space, your style, and your family’s story.

A Personalized Experience from Start to Finish

When you invest in professional portraits, you are actually investing in memories that become part of your home. Our interaction is a collaboration – we work together to find the perfect spots for your wall art. Whether it’s a large statement piece above your living room sofa, composites in a cozy reading nook, or a gallery wall in your hallway, each location is chosen with intention.

During the planning process, we’ll talk about your home’s color scheme, architectural details, and the feeling you want your portraits to evoke. Just as every family is different, every home is different. Your wall art should look and feel like it belongs there.

Frame Moldings & Finishes That Complement Your Decor

Frames are more than a way to protect a photograph—they’re part of the artwork itself. I offer a curated selection of frame moldings and finishes, from sleek and modern to rich and traditional. Together, we’ll choose colors, textures, and styles that harmonize with your furnishings and design aesthetic.

The goal is for your portraits to look as if they’ve always been part of your home, blending seamlessly into your space while showing your guests what you value.

See Your Portraits on Your Walls Before You Order

One of the most exciting parts of the process happens during your ordering appointment. Using specialized design software, I can show you exactly how your chosen images will look on the walls of your own home.

At your design consultation, we’ll take simple photos of the walls where you might want to display your portraits. Then, during your selection meeting, we’ll use those images to create accurately-scaled mock-ups. You’ll be able to compare different sizes, layouts, and frame treatments on your own walls, so you can have complete confidence before you order. My software takes all the guesswork out of the decision-making.

Creating Timeless Treasures to Hold in Your Hands

While wall art is often the centerpiece, I offer custom-designed albums and portrait boxes to complement your framed pieces and complete the telling of your family story. These products give you the best of both worlds: you have cherished images displayed prominently on your walls and a curated collection to hold in your hands.

Every piece is crafted with archival-quality materials, designed to last for generations. Your portraits won’t become digital dust. Instead, they’ll become tangible reminders of the love and connection in your family.

From Vision to Installation

Once your artwork is complete, I deliver it to your home, ensuring every piece arrives in perfect condition. If you’d like, I can even handle installation as well so your portraits are hung securely and at the right height.

By the end of the process, you’ll have more than just photographs—you’ll have artwork that feels deeply personal, perfectly placed, and beautifully finished.
