decorating ideas
Full service, leaving you with high quality, ready to hang artwork.
Meticulous with details and posing
You will feel comfortable to love on your family
I know how hard it is to trust that you’ve found the right choice to make you look and feel your best, comfortable in front of the camera and beautiful on your wall. Over the years, I have helped thousands of families create legacy art they love to show off. Family photos can be stressful.
Many families put off photography for years because it's so challenging. If only photos could be easy, fun and flattering. I can help you with that.

"Debbie is not only incredibly talented as a photographer but also immensely compassionate, kind, and artistic which makes the whole process such a pleasure from start to finish! She makes sure you are fully satisfied with your whole experience not just your images. You and your family will love working with Debbie! And she will just love on all of you too!"
- Lisa
"Debbie is the sweetest most talented photographer. She went out of her way from picking the best location to creating the most beautiful family portrait and photos of our kids. We had such a great time too. Thank you Debbie!"
- Rachael
"Debbie has captured our family photos on more than one occasion as well as our son's senior pics. It's not every year that you go through the time and expense to have special moments like this memorialized. That makes it even more important to choose the right person to guide you through it. Debbie is the right person."
We can plan a time for me to drop by to see your wall space and what we are aiming for in our session. It will help us figure out which colors, style and location would work best as well as what sizes would work. This step has proven to be SO very helpful for people as we then know what type of look we are going to need, what sizes anddirection they will need to be for your space. If you'd rather, you can send me photos of your wall space, but with me being there, I can help with design.
I want the scoop on your kids - who's bossy, quiet or the rebel. Understanding this helps me capture their personalities and relationships. In the Design Consultation, every question will be answered:
clothing, your investment, areas of your home for portraits.
Contact me to set up a few minutes to chat on the phone.
Relaxed session where everyone will feel comfortable, beautiful and have fun. Since we know what we are aiming for, we will be spending our time and energy reaching our specific goal.
All decision makers should be present as this time is reserved to finalize your order. A special slideshow with curated, artist favorites will be shown before we start the guided selection and order process. Using state-of-the-art software and photos of the walls in your home, we will show your portraits scaled onto your walls, which solves the problem of what size to order; not too big, not too small, but just right! Using your goals from the consultation, we'll guide you every step of
the way.
After retouching with a fine tooth comb, I will design your artwork and deliver it to you upon arrival.

Together, we will plan out your wall space.
Wall Art:
Statement: Perhaps you want one large Statement Piece for above the sofa or fireplace, a piece that can stand alone, making a statement. "This is what is important to our family!"
Complimentary: Two or more wall art pieces that complement each other to tell a story.
Gallery: A wall gallery with a collection of pieces that work together.
Albums:
A variety of sizes and finishes, just like with the wall art,
all are of the highest quality and come with a lifetime guarantee.
I will cherish your memories just like you do. I can do a home visit to see your wall space, colors and style and plan your custom session to fit your home so you can decorate with love. With my art degree and years and years of styling and photographing, I will help every step of the way including during the viewing and order appointment to show you exactly whay it will look like in your home, give you my professional opinion on cropping, sizes, finishes. Meticulously retouch while still looking like you!
What are the benefits of full service care?
If you could only see the behind-the-scenes footage of one of my crazy shoots, you would see that I do whatever it takes to get the shot. We might be pirates walking or jumping off the plank, spinning through the field like a ballerina or surprising each other with a big bear hug.
Those kids on your website just look like they are so sweet and posing for the camera!
You might THINK that you only want the digital images, but I promise you that you will be happy with the expert taking care of you, giving you the highest quality service and products of the most important artwork of your home. You will receive a social media -sized image of everything your purchase, whether for the wall or from an album. You will be able to share images of your cuties, but also have the highest quality artwork that will be guaranteed for life. I am the expert at color calibration, exposure manipulation, cropping and use only the absolute best professional labs in the country. Wy would you want to leave your memories to chance, forgotten in a desk drawer, printed incorrectly like with a greenish/gray undertone on faces, too dark or blurry or only to fade after a few years.?
I will be showing you a hand curated selection of artist choices and helping you choose which sizes would look best on your walls. When children see themselves on the walls of their home, it helps them realize how important and loved they are. Those smiles and hugs that you see on the wall will bring a smile to your face when you start the day full of to-do's and when you are exhausted at the end of a long day.
What if I only want the digital images?
With years of experience, 6 kids and a husband who is ready to leave within ten minutes of family portraits, I specialize in naughty!! We will just have fun, laughing and snuggling with your family and even the husbands will say, "It wasn't as bad as I thought!". You don't have anything to worry about because, I promise you...I have seen it all and honestly don't even remember one time where I didn't get "the shot"! Your only job will be to show up and have fun and love on your family,
My kids/husband/dog are... well....a little crazy and might not behave to get a decent portrait. They don't even like being in front of the camera! How do I know if they will cooperate?
