From White Settlement to our studio

A straightforward beginning for your portrait

White Settlement sits on Fort Worth's western side, with the local museum, Central Park, and Veterans Park among its reference points. Studio 23's portrait work for this area is based in McKinney. The first step is a conversation about the family members, maternity story, or pet you want photographed.

You can begin an inquiry from White Settlement without a complete wardrobe or artwork plan. Tell us who is joining, any comfort considerations, and which portraits you like from the collections. A few concrete details give us something useful to discuss as the clothing, groupings, and display ideas develop.

Start with the people and preferences

Share who will be included and a few images you respond to; the remaining preparation can be discussed around those starting points.

Family portraits for White Settlement

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 White Settlement

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 White Settlement

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.

Bring the familiar.

Pack your pet’s usual lead or carrier and a favorite toy or suitable treat. Familiar items can help us connect with their attention and personality.

What should I bring for my pet?

Bring their usual lead or carrier and a few familiar favorites, such as an appropriate treat or toy. Tell us about any sensitivities or needs before your visit so we can plan with you.

The portrait is the beginning

A place in your life.

Bring a photograph of a wall or the approximate dimensions of a space you love. At your projected reveal, we can consider the portraits together and explore how they will live with you.
