PORTRAIT SERVICES

Redbud Portrait Photography specializes in creating keepsake portraits. Whether you choose to share your portraits in an album, display individual prints or collections, hang large artwork on your walls, or opt for one of our personalized storybooks from our themed sessions, we know your portraits will become treasured keepsakes that bring back wonderful memories!

Family Portraits

Family Portraits encompasses portrait sessions for families and so much more! Family portrait sessions can include just about any number of individuals, from one to over a dozen.

We love photographing couples through all stages of their lives, from young adults who just fell in love, to engaged couples, to couples celebrating their anniversaries.

As a couple prepares to grow to become a family, pamper your expectant mom with a maternity session to show off her baby bump.

Once the baby is born, new families deserve a new family portrait! As children grow, we’ll capture those moments while they’re young before they become fleeting memories.

We help you celebrate the big achievements in life as your child becomes a young adult, whether that’s a graduation, a dance, a special award, participation or achievement in sports or band, or even as an alternative to those standard, boring school photos.

Individually or together, everyone in the family deserves to be featured in portraits. From just the kids, to immediate families, to extended families, we work with groups of all sizes to create portraits everyone in the family will love.

Glamour Portraits to Empower Her

Whether she’s looking for a session to dress up like royalty or a session where she can dress however she wants, booking a glamour session is a great way for women of all ages to celebrate! Book a Mom-and-Me session and play dress up with your daughter – or even with your older mother! You’re never too old or too young for one of these empowering sessions!

From ballgowns to beach wear, from leggings to lingerie, whatever makes you feel fabulous is what you should wear! We work with our clients to create the portraits that will celebrate what it means to them to be a girl, a woman, a lady, a mom, a grandma, a single woman, a married woman, or even a boss b*tch!

Themed Sets & Storybook Sessions

While our Family Portraits and Glamour Sessions can be booked throughout the year, sessions on our specially designed themed sets are a special event! With limited availability sessions offered on specific dates, our themed sets are a huge hit with clients!

One of our favorite settings for portraits is the fantasy set. From holiday sets to magical or fantasy themes, we love to get our creative juices flowing. We design and create fantastical interactive sets for our clients to come play dress up! Among our most-loved sets, we have mermaid grottoes, fairy gardens, a fairytale cottage, and even Santa’s workshop! Pirates, princesses, firemen, cowboys, witches, and creatures have been known to be part of our themed sessions too!

To celebrate Santa and the role he plays in everyone’s childhood, we offer storybook sessions with Santa. Each year, children are enthralled at Santa’s Magical Storybook Visit. What makes these 60-minute storybook sessions different from sessions on our themed sets is that the visits with Santa are just that – VISITS with Santa that get photographed! The choreographed visit with Santa lasts a half hour, where children interact with Santa while the photographer captures the magic. The images are then edited to evoke the nostalgic feel of Norman Rockwell’s artwork and are used to create a personalized storybook featuring your children! Santa’s Magical Storybook Visit sessions typically take place in late summer through early fall, as we want to create these special storybooks from your portraits well in advance of the actual Christmas holidays, so that you can surprise family with a truly unique and treasured gift!

PRICING

Session Fee

Creating a great portrait starts with the session. Your session’s images are then edited into works of art which you can choose to purchase as photo prints, larger wall art, albums, other print products, and in the case of our storybook sessions, as personalized storybooks.

There is a $375 session fee for our outdoor portrait sessions local to our Warrenville business offices, and for areas further away, there is an additional travel fee. These sessions typically last between 60 to 90 minutes, depending on factors like wardrobe changes and/or adjustments, or the general attitude and cooperation of subjects being photographed. We also work with clients who wish to be photographed in an indoor studio location to find the perfect studio for their needs. $100 is due at time of booking and serves as a non-refundable services retainer fee. The balance of the session fee is due by the date of your session.

The session fee does not include any print or digital products. It only covers the sitting fee for the session. To book any of our portrait sessions, the full amount of the session fee is required as a non-refundable retainer fee for our services, which guarantees your selected date and time for your session.

Portraits Packages and More

Individual portraits can be purchased from any of your session’s images. We also offer a variety of portrait packages that include our most-requested print products, such as albums, wall art, photo prints, and more.

Please schedule a consultation with us to discuss products and pricing, as we are always willing to work with our clients to put together a package that works for their needs and wants. Pricing depends on quantity, size, and type of desired products.

Individual prints begin at $50, our smallest album is $650, and packages begin at $750.
