WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYINg

  • "captured the souls of my boys"

    “Brittain and I are not happy campers in front of the camera, but after the first few shots it was easy to forget the agenda. I'm so happy to have both the silly and the happy, but I treasure the shots that captured the souls of my boys in their more thoughtful candid-feeling forms.” -Bethany

  • "Our photos from our session with Peter are pure gold"

    “Peter’s combination of simple intimate studio, that quirky red stool, and of course his own genius directing is pure magic. My son and husband are difficult to draw out and capture genuine “them” expressions in photos. Somehow Peter knew just what to say to get them to relax and be themselves. Our photos from our session with Peter are pure gold, and I know I will be giving them a special place on our wall for years to come.” -Hannah

  • "blown away by the results”

    “Peter has a way of capturing the true essence of a person. I avoid the camera like the plague because all the photos I have of myself look awkward and forced. Peter was amazing at directing me and helping me feel confident and I was blown away by the results.” -John

WHAT TO EXPECT

After scheduling a date & time, you’ll come to our home in Gladstone, we’ll visit for a bit, and then turn on some of your favorite music while you take a seat in the red chair. Most sessions are close to an hour. If you have little kids, we usually schedule another time to either come back to the studio or do our photo review over Google Hangouts.

WHAT TO WEAR

These are not glamour shots and not formal head shots, so wear YOU. The most “you” thing you can think of. A spouse or loved one is usually the most helpful with this! We want to capture a time capsule of what you’re like right now. What you’re into, the style of glasses you’re wearing these days, what you wear on an average Tuesday. For best editing and printing, stay away from solid red, white, or black tops. If you’re unsure, bring a few options and we can decide here.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • The number one rule is wear you. What do you look like on most days? Asking a loved one is very helpful. Textured things photograph amazing in black and white. Stay away from all red. If you’re unsure, bring a few different options and I am happy to help.

  • First of all, I’m thrilled you’re even considering this! I’m honored whenever I get to photograph someone in this intimate way, and do not take that trust lightly. We have spent the last 13 years doing portraits and weddings, working with people who don’t feel comfortable being photographed. My mission is always to make the process something that makes you feel respected and comfortable, not awkward and exposed.

  • We don’t advertise it but yes, for $10/per photo we can make you a colored version.

  • Yes! Not everyone can make it to our home studio. Typically, anywhere within 20 miles of Gladstone we can travel to for an additional l$100. We will need at least a 8ft X 10ft cleared area where we can get it mostly dark in order to use our studio lights. Are you farther than 20 miles? Contact us for a custom quote.

  • We often do family smash sessions where we cram you all in if you're able to come at the same time, we also love doing couples together. However, these are primarily intended to spend most of our time trying to capture you or your loved one in an honest and beautiful portrait.

  • Yes! These are very striking portraits and stand out when used as a professional head shot.
