THE MISSION:

to create heirlooms FOR YOUR FAMILY that will outlive US BOTH.

You might spend hours researching and corresponding with prospective family photographers and when you finally settle on one, you'll invest your time and money booking & procuring wardrobe for your session. 
On the day of the session, the time, effort and patience required to pull it off isn't even quantifiable!!
When your portrait gallery is delivered, you'll download the included digital files, you may even share a few online and then...  these beautiful images just sit on a hard drive...
Fine Art Portrait Photography is an investment no matter how you square it. Wouldn't you rather walk away with Gorgeous, Heirloom Prints, Albums and Wall Art to show for it!?
 I certainly would!
I want you to have these beautiful pieces to display in your home, products that will bring you joy each time you walk by them, heirlooms to pass down to your children... it's your family's history and it's incredibly valuable.

How far in advance should we book our session?

At Asheville Portrait Company, we value family & try really hard to prioritize having a Healthy Work / Life Balance. We believe that it directly affects our attitude, energy, creativity and ultimately our success.
As such, we can only accept 10 families for Family Portrait Sessions each month
We encourage you to book you session as far in advance as possible to ensure availability for your family!

Frequently asked questions

Where & When do we shoot?

We can shoot in and around Asheville proper, along the Blue Ridge Parkway, at Biltmore Estate, Max Patch, the NC Arboretum, UNCA Botanical Gardens, Warren Wilson College, at one of our iconic Waterfalls, at a Mountain Lake, in one our Creeks or Rivers!
The possibilities are limitless! 
During your pre-session phone consultation, I will talk with you about the types of locations that interest you & help you to select a photo location that will be perfect for your family!

Frequently asked questions

What time of day do we shoot?

The softest, most flattering light of the day happens 90 minutes after sunrise or 90 minutes before sunset. With that being said, we can shoot at any time of day, as long as you understand that the sunlight (looks) different at 1pm than it does at 6pm. If you want to shoot an outdoor or adventure session in the middle of the day, we’ll just need to get a little creative with locations, vantage point and posing! 

Frequently asked questions

What about our Extended Family? 

I am frequently asked to photograph Extended Families vacationing in Asheville! I am happy to travel to your vacation rental or I can show you some of the most beautiful vistas that WNC has to offer! There is an additional $25 per person creative fee assessed for groups larger than six
(a standard family size).
