Portrait Sessions
For individuals, couples, families, friends and pets in Nelson BC.
Some moments deserve more than a place on your phone. A commissioned portrait is a chance to celebrate the people, relationships, and milestones that make your life uniquely yours. Whether it's an individual portrait, a family, or a beloved companion, every session is thoughtfully designed to create artwork that feels authentic, personal, and at home in your life for years to come.
Choose from two distinctive styles: Masterpiece Portraits or Contemporary Portraiture.
An award-winning photographer holding the Master of Photographic Arts with the Professional Photographers of Canada, Kathryn is a passionate portrait artist who firmly believes that fine portrait artwork is a most cherished possession.
Here's how it works:
Step One: Discovery Consult
Join Kathryn for a no obligation discovery consult (in-studio or via Zoom) and explore our portrait experiences. During this call we will get to know each other a little and chat about what is driving you to create a portrait at this time. I will then explain the process and give you an idea of what you can expect to invest.
Step Two: Planning Call
Once you have booked your session, we will meet on Zoom to do a deep dive into planning your imagery. We'll discuss who will be in the portraits, outfits, hair and makeup, props, and all the details we need to ensure success.
Step Three: The Portrait Session
By the time we get to the shoot, all of the hard work is done. Your job is to relax and have fun. My job is to run the set and guide you through the session.
After the session, you can check out some samples of our luxurious wall-art and printed products - handmade in both Italy and North America.
Step Four: The Reveal & Ordering Session
After the session, you will be invited back to the studio for your guided portrait reveal and ordering session. We'll take a look at all of your photographs and I will help you narrow down your choices. We'll take a look at what sizes and dimensions of wall art, albums, desk art or print will fit perfectly into your space. There is no hard sell. You only purchase what you love.
Step Five: Delivery of Your Beautiful Artwork
Your artwork is ready! Imagine starting everyday with a cup of tea or coffee and gazing at this beautiful one-of-kind artwork that was created just for you!
