From Pasadena to our studio

A personal portrait plan from Pasadena

Pasadena City Hall, the Colorado Street Bridge, and the Arroyo Seco give Pasadena several recognizable points of reference. Your Studio 23 inquiry leads to our Valencia studio, where family, maternity, and pet portraits are shaped around their subjects.

For the artwork conversation, bring a photograph of the space where you would like to enjoy your portraits. Include the furniture and surrounding wall rather than only an empty rectangle. Seeing the room helps us discuss the relationship between a single portrait, a collection, and an album.

Show us the room around the wall

Take a photograph that includes the intended wall and nearby furniture, and note approximate dimensions so we can talk about artwork scale together.

Family portraits for Pasadena

Your people, together.

Think about a portrait everyone will see at home, or an album that gives each relationship its own place.

From a parent and child to the generations you want in one frame, we begin with who belongs in your portrait. Share the groupings that matter to you, then we can plan the clothing, positioning, and details together.

Start with a palette.

Lay your outfits together and look at the colors as a group. Solid colors and subtle textures keep attention on faces. Think about the room where your artwork might live, too.

Can we include several generations?

Tell us who you would like in the portrait, including the number of adults and children. That helps us plan the groupings, styling, and space around your family.

Maternity portraits for Pasadena

A chapter worth keeping.

A single portrait can hold the moment. An album can keep the quieter connections alongside it.

Flowing fabric, a quiet expression, or a portrait with the people sharing this chapter. Bring the photographs and shapes you love to the planning conversation. We will talk about timing, comfort, the gown collection, and any personal pieces you want to include.

Pet portraits for Pasadena

All of their character.

A favorite expression can become a wall portrait or a smaller piece that keeps their personality close every day.

Tell us about the companion you know so well: their energy, what holds their attention, and anything that makes a new space unfamiliar. We will discuss the plan for a portrait of your pet alone or together with their people.
