Photograph to Painting

Sometimes a photograph is enough... and other times it asks to be something more than a photograph. I love the way this mother embraces her sweet baby. In the painting I like how everything encompases them together.

Often I don't know what the final painting is going to look like, it takes on a life of it's own, until everything comes together.

This is an example of the progress of a portrait... from photograph to one of a kind art piece.

Baby Parts composites

Their button nose... Their tiny toes... every little bit of your baby is soft and sweet. Remember every little detail with a baby parts composite. These are wildly popular items that help you remember all the little details of your little baby.

We offer custom framing from simple to the magnificent to showcase your images. Or get even more artistic and have a wall composite of stretched canvas gallery wraps. (This is where your image wraps around the canvas frame, creating a unique art piece that can be hung as it is, no framing required.)

Baby acne.

Baby acne is something many babies experience within a few weeks of birth, as they 'flushout' the hormones in their little bodies that they shared with their mothers.

Ideally newborn sessions should be held within the first days or weeks of birth to capture the newborn'ness'. Before you know it they are filling their skin and plumping up and getting responsive and expressive. Then, before you know it your newborn is beginning to communicate with you.

There is such a drastic difference between newborn and three months. The delicate baby you bring home from the hospital changes so fast. Try to schedule newborn appts as soon as possible and you are comfortable with.

All is not lost if your little sweetheart starts to break out... Here is an example of a before and after retouched infant. This sweet baby was 5 weeks old when these were taken. We had already postponed the session one week, because of the acne, and mom didn't want to let anymore time go by
