Portraits are about capturing moments in time, for individuals,
families or children. A portrait stops the changes and preserves the memories
for the moment, to be cherished for a lifetime.

What makes Carr Portrait Art unique?
- We take time to plan your portrait session. The first step to creating quality
portraiture is planning. We take a unique approach to creating your family's portraits.
When you come to our gallery, we will schedule and plan your portrait session at the location that will
best capture and communicate your family's story and interests.*
- We specialize in location portraiture. Choose a location that's special to your family --
a family homestead, an area park, a place of business, the lake, the mountains. (If your favorite place
is Hawaii, next time you go, take me along - it may be more affordable than hiring someone there, and a lot
easier to order your family portraits when you get back!!)
- Yes, we also have a studio. We also have our own exclusive outdoor portrait park.
You may want to choose either one of these as the "location" for your portrait.
- It is our goal to create a portrait that will be a beautiful work of art to grace the walls of
your home, and at the same time reflect and reinforce your values - a constant reminder of the
love you share as a family.
- After your session, your portraits are printed by our lab according to our specific instructions.
The portrait is then turned over to a talented artist for basic retouch - all Carr Portrait Art
portraits receive minor retouching of blemishes, softening of facial lines, and minimal finishing art as
needed - and sealed with a photographic lacquer coating. All wall portraits will receive
additional enhancement as needed for the most artistic and elegant expression. Wall portraits
are then mounted on heavy artboard and sealed with a photographic lacquer coating and
framed.
- Our photography is guaranteed. We want you to be thrilled with your portraits. If you
aren't, we will retake your session making the necessary adjustments to get you the portraits you want, or we
will refund your money - no risk to you, no hard feelings!!

*Why plan your session ahead of time?
- Besides planning a location to more effectively tell your family's story, a planning consultation allows us to meet your family ahead of time. This will put them more at ease when we meet to create your portraits - this is especially true of small children, high school seniors, and sometimes husbands.
- The planning session also allows us to talk about the style of portrait you desire - such as casual, formal, traditional.
- We can talk about your home decor and what color clothing and backgrounds in the portrait would accent the look of your home.
- The planning session allows us to discuss any props you may want to include in your portrait that will help tell your story.
- By getting to know you better, and talking about what's important to you, we can come into the session with better ideas for posing.
- If we are going on location, it is often good to give us a chance to see the location ahead of time so we know what to expect with lighting and background.
Now is the time to call and schedule your next family portrait.
