It's FALL Portrait Party Time!

What is a Portrait Party??

Portrait parties are an wonderful opportunity for you and your friends to have professional portraits made in a fun and affordable way. Portrait Parties take place in your home (if you are the host) or any other suitable location(such as your local park). The host invites between 8 and 12 families to the party and for the hosts hard work enjoys credits toward portraits for hosting. It is a low stress fun opportunity to have beautiful portraits made of yourself or your children in a low pressure, relaxed atmosphere.

How do Portrait Parties work?

The Portrait Party is organized by the party Host. Hosts provide the location, coordinate the hors'doeuvres, drinks, activities, the guest list and scheduling the 20 minute session times. Guests enjoy a good time, a in expensive portrait session($20 for up to 2 children includes a 8x10) and their children enjoy a short and concise sitting. Everyone involved will have a good time and the children will actually look forward to the next party! After the party, the guests will visit an Online Gallery to view and order their portraits. After all guests have ordered the host will then be able to place an order based on credits from their guests purchases.

How do I schedule a Portrait Party?

First look at all the forms so you know what you and your guests will need to do to put the party together. Then contact me to ensure availability - you might put together several prospective dates to ensure everyone's schedules match up - and to find out everything you need to know to have a super successful party.

If I host a Portrait Party what are my responsibilities?

A Portrait party is organized by the Host. The Host is the key ingredient to a successful party. Hosts invite guests, coordinate the bringing of snacks and drinks (if not providing themselves) and the scheduling of sessions. Hosts follow up with their guests with reminders and to ensure that every session block is filled to get the most portrait credits possible.

After the party, the guests will visit an online gallery to view their portraits. Hosts collect orders from their guests and 4-6 weeks later deliver the final products to them. After all guests have ordered the host will then be able to place an order based on credits from their guests purchases. Please contact me for more information.

Should my portrait party be a certain theme?

I highly recommend it! That way you can hold different parties all year long to earn those credits for your own family pictures. For this session, I recommend a Fall or Halloween them. I will bring a pumpkin or 2 and a large block of hay and we are set!
