Beginning with infant photos, this album can grow with the child up through the teenage years. The changes your child goes through from infancy to young adulthood are captured in heirloom photographs which are displayed in your child’s own custom album. Each time your child is photographed indoors or outdoors, you get to fill two pages in the album for one price, no matter what size you choose to make the images. For best results, we require a pre-portrait consultation.

1st Year: At no time during your child's life will physical changes occur so rapidly. In what seems like the blink of an eye, a tiny, helpless bundle is transformed into an active, robust and inquisitive youngster. Capture your child's developmental stages in that first year with a portrait session every 3 months.

2nd Year: The world of toddlers is filled with portraiture opportunities that capture the mystery and fantasy that are so much a part of these joyful days of discovery and make believe that fade so soon. Around the second birthday a major milestone is achieved as the child begins to speak. The toddler now responds to reason, humor, and action . . . Beginning to explore a widening world.

3-4 Years: Between the third and fourth birthdays is the cutest, most endearing age for "little" boys and girls. With the ability to speak and reason growing stronger every day, these youngsters now display individuality of character and action that should be portrayed before the baby teeth are lost and replaced by permanent ones . . . Forever altering the endearing look of early childhood.

6-7 years: During the seventh year, the snaggly-tooth age ends and permanent teeth emerge to change the facial contours. A developing mind reveals a more mature, inquiring outlook. Now off to school and making their way in the world, portraits at this age can show the special interests that help to define who they are.

11-12 years: As the twelfth year progresses, the child is about to enter the teenage years . . . a kind of dress rehearsal for adulthood . . . when physical, emotional, and attitude changes occur. The child you know so well is about to become a more complex and less dependent young person. Peer acceptance is now important, and portraits can capture the child's sense of style and expanding horizons.

15-16 years: By this time, childhood is all but a memory. The boy is almost a man. . . In his interest, his attitudes, his thinking. Carefree years, yet ones that anticipate the challenges of adulthood on the horizon. The young woman is now "sweet sixteen" an unforgettable age when she blossoms into womanhood. Still a lifetime of growing and learning ahead, but never again a child.

As you can see, there are many stops along the journey through childhood that call for professional portraits. It would be a shame to miss any of them. We are eager to suggest ways to create these priceless images. And if you wish, we will even contact you at appropriate intervals to arrange the final details of each portrait session.

It's as easy as that. So begin planning now for the most important portraits of your child's life. You'll always be glad you did!
