We were delighted to install several beautiful portraits for the McKeever family this week. The final step before installing the custom art was to choose the perfect frame for the finished canvases. We are as thrilled with the results as they are!

With todays active lifestyles, art has been shown to provide health benefits; image the benefits of custom art of your family...

The Gift of Spring

Wanda and I took a much needed break today and strolled around Maymont Park; one of the treasures of the Richmond area. With a picnic lunch and a little sunscreen, we soaked in a beautiful spring day in Central Virginia. In the photograph above, Wanda absorbed the vista under a large oak tree that was probably around when the Dooley family built their mansion on the property in 1893.

Wanda and I work together every day, however today was just about enjoying the gift of Spring.

Michael at Ten

Michael is a ten year old that does what boys his age enjoy; playing outdoors, wake boarding, driving tractors and racing go carts at 60 mph. There is no question that his portrait would be created outdoors in the element he loves most. A well mannered young man with a bright spirit, Michael is a true joy to spend time with. His 36" portrait is now being painted to be hung over the stone fireplace in his parent's home. A portrait that truly represents Michael; a boy enjoying life at ten.....

Three years after we photographed his Senior portraits, we were delighted to see Alex on his Spring Break from Howard University. While home, he wanted an updated portrait for his upcoming internship with a Fortune 500 company in Richmond. Majoring in marketing, we see this young man ready to make his mark! We are excited for Alex and wish him much success with his future goals.

Simple Moments

I had to smile when preparing this image for inclusion in an album for the family. The flower girl's expression as she anticipates the final burst of spray completes a compelling composition of activity in preparation to celebrate the day. Simple moments like this help to weave a story that is unique to each day.

Aging Gracefully

When we think of a beautiful rose, we usually think of a flower full of color with softly curved petals surrounded by a gentle perfumed scent. Rarely do we see how beautiful the same flower can be even well past its prime. People are the same as this rose. We photograph many beautiful individuals during the prime of life, but none are more beautiful than a mature individual, abundant in years, aging gracefully, and full of character.
