Common Concerns You May Share

My Children can be a handful!

You should expect images that reflect your children's natural smiles in fun behavior that capture their individual personalities. With that goal in mind we will start your children's session by talking and playing with your children to get them comfortable and engaged.  

How much will this cost?

We specialize in creating engaging portraits meant to be enjoyed for a very long time. Heirloom quality artwork is the combination of good planning, detailed preparation and thoughtful presentation and framing. The process often requires a month or two to complete. While your choices may vary, most people expect to invest $1500 to $5500, sometimes more, sometimes less, in wall displays and gift items which includes framing, installation and social media files.

Your Portrait Journey will be as Simple as 1-2-3.

1. Your telephone visit...

We are excited to hear your ideas for your children's portraits. And why the portraits are so important to you just now. We wish to answer your questions and help you with suggestions for colors and clothing.

2. Prepared To Be Amazed at Your Portrait Session...

Your children's portrait session will be fun and easy as we help them look and feel great. Your children will look confident and excited.

"It was wonderful working with Rick and Sharon.

We got a grouping of gorgeous portraits that we will always treasure. In the beautiful setting of Plum Island at sunset, they brought out the best in us and helped us have fun as a family. I'm really happy with the way that our portraits came out." – Natalie T.

"Your images are amazing and bright...

They get compliments from lots of friends who visit our home. The images are exactly what we were looking for, lots of movement, action. You captured being free and her personality perfectly. We will never lose that perfect day, it was not your school picture sort of thing. Playing with the apples and running across the yard, it was all about the experience we had. Makenzi still talks about it now." – Kim L.

 The more fun we had the better our portraits got.

On the last day of December Richard and Sharon met us at the beach to photograph our family. It was all great fun. The images were exactly what we wanted. But picking out our favorite images was not easy." – Alison H.

"The simple act of having your families’ photographs hung in your house increases your children's self-esteem. 

…your portraits displayed prominently in your home sends the message that your family is important to one another.

…that you honor the memories you create together." – David Krauss, a licensed psychologist from Cleveland, Ohio

Hydren Portraiture helps parents preserve
the special relationships you enjoy in artwork you will cherish
