Earlier this month, we had an incredible experience at the studio, creating some very special portraits of the children of our clients.

April spent quite some time selecting beautiful new silk draperies and floral arrangements. We provided elegant dresses for the girls and suits for the little boys. One of the sittings was of 6 little cousins, all in pink and white dresses offset by the boys in their suits.

It was a joy for me to have so many properly prepared clients! I was able to create beautiful, timeless portraits of their children. It truly inspires me as an artist.

The event was such a success that we are now repeating it again on April 14th and 15th. This time, clients can use our studio photographers Adam George or Gloria Mesa to capture simple yet exquisite portraits and take advantage of our lower Children’s Prices, or I will be available to create the more elaborately styled Salon portraits I so love at the regular prices, but with no sitting fee and no minimum order. It’s quite an opportunity in either case. Call us for details at (805) 367-8100.

I’m looking forward to seeing you all soon!
