We are known for our high-quality portraits and incredible customer service!
Child Photography
Changes in your child's life will occur rapidly during the first year and early childhood years that follow. Changes have already begun! With creative attention to detail, we can provide you with quality portraits that you will love to share with family and friends and bring you years of enjoyment.
Psychologists who specialize in early childhood development believe that a child who sees their own image displayed in the home, grow up with a feeling of well-being and self-confidence. Portraits on display serve to make a child feel loved and valued. And when mom and dad appear in the portrait, your child is reminded of the meaningful place they have within the family. Begin your baby's memories as an infant and then at ages 3, 6, 9, 12 and 18 months. Capture those special years in your child's life with Professional Portraits, before it's too late! The most beautiful things in life are not seen with the eye, but felt with the heart. What better way to show how you feel about your child?
Senior Photography
You only graduate once and a picture may not be "everything", but to a senior, it's right up there with oxygen! That's why choosing who takes your senior portraits is so critical. Who knows what the future holds after this year? But right now, you've reached the top! You've worked hard to get to where you are and you deserve portraits that are special to you and your family. Get this! You don't have to go to the "school" photographer! We'll create poses that are creative, fun and uniquely you! And we'll make certain that your picture is in the Yearbook.
Everyone loves the outdoors and we have made a large investment into designing a spectacular outdoor background! We have (on sight) over an acre of beathtaking landscape that is as versatile as it is beautiful, lending itself to a myriad of incredible posing options and beautiful images.
Picture an awesome view across our courtyard and gardens showing lush greenery, colorful flowers and magnificent shade trees. Then picture a shimmering pond, wooden gazebo, vine-covered trellis, an old barn door, rugged rocks, antique potting shed and much more. This is what separates Hall of Portraits from the masses of photographers who have a camera and a tree in their backyard. Hall of Portraits offers more, gives more, and delivers more, for less than other studios. Just ask your friends that came here last year!
Wedding Photography
As a husband and wife team, our approach to each wedding we do is a chance to tell a love story through portraits. We are honored to be part of every wedding we photograph and enjoy getting to know the couples we work with. To select the right photographer for your wedding is one of the most important investments you will ever make!
Using elements of fashion, photojournalism and portraits, combined with an understanding of light and composition, all events are photographed as they unfold. With time, these creative wedding images become valued possessions which trigger feelings of that special day and provide a record of all who were a part of it. Our ultimate desire is to create beautiful images that will become a treasured family heirloom. Wedding packages start at $1599.
Family Photography
What does "family" mean to you? One of life's greatest pleasures is seeing your family together. We, here at Hall of Portraits, believe every family has a responsibility to future generations, to preserve their history through words, pictures and Professional Portraits. It's often the last record of your family before children move away to college, marry and start their own families. A Family Portrait will convey the special relationship of each member and recall special times together, even when some family members are far away. It is never too early to have a beautiful Family Portrait created as a gift to give yourself, to your children and to generations to come. Get them together for a Family Portrait before it's too late.
