Mothers & their Children

Lockhart Studio–Limited Sessions Available

Why Mothers & their Children?

What we hear over and over from our clients is that moms are usually the ones behind the camera, capturing amazing moments of their kids. But they deserve to be in the photos too. It’s time for moms to have beautiful portraits alongside their children–not just of their children–and not just blurry phone selfies! Think about it—when kids grow up, they’ll want to look back and see not just themselves, but also their loving mom right there with them.

HAVING THESE PORTRAITS IS LIKE HAVING A VISUAL REPRESENTATION AND TREASURED REMINDER OF THE COUNTLESS MOMENTS OF LOVE, CONNECTION, AND JOY SHARED BETWEEN A MOTHER AND HER CHILDREN.

MOMS

WHAT’s INCLUDED

COMPLIMENTARY B&W STUDIO PHOTOGRAPHY SESSION WITH YOUR CHILDREN. ($750 VALUE)

CINEMATIC IN-HOME PORTRAIT REVEAL & ORDERING SESSION VIA ZOOM

This means you get to see all the fantastic photos captured during the session without even leaving your house! Our portrait designer will host a virtual ordering session via Zoom where you can sit back and relax as you check out the images from the comfort of your own home. During this time, you will have the opportunity to purchase the images you like.

They are one of the most sought after B&W portrait photography studios in Texas.

CAN I BUY THE PHOTOGRAPHS?

Of course! While there’s absolutely no obligation to buy any of the images, you will have a fun and very special viewing session on Zoom where you look at your stunning portraits one week after your shoot in the comfort of your own home. Should you fall head over heels (which we’re pretty sure you will) with any of your images, we’ll help guide you through the options, ensuring the best fit for you and your family. At that time, you can apply your gift certificate toward any purchase.

Our artwork starts at $495; and most clients typically spend $1500 and up on their selected portraits.

How Do I Book My Session?

To book your session, please fill out our short form below. We’ll review it quickly and get in touch with you via text and email. We book all of our sessions after a short phone call to confirm we’re a good fit and to select your session and reveal dates. Sessions are limited and are being scheduled on a first-come, first-served basis, so be sure to respond quickly if we contact you.

STILL HAVE QUESTIONS?

Our Studio is in Lockhart, close to Austin and not far from San Antonio. Most of our clients drive 30 minutes to 3 hours to come and see us, and often make a day of it here because the town is so historic, walkable and cute. (And BBQ!) Be sure to visit our local art galleries, vintage and antique stores, cafe’s and Bookery that many children–and adults–love! Our physical address is: 103 E. San Antonio Street, Lockhart, Texas, 78644.

We are constantly trying new lighting, backdrops, and posing techniques, so we always need fresh faces for our ever-expanding website portfolios and studio displays. We also tend to select subjects that have a personal meaning to the owners or that address a cause that the Studio is committed to.

No, we are looking for REAL mothers and children for our portfolios. Our clients are real people so we prefer to show real people in our wall displays, on our website, social media and in our portfolios. 

Absolutely! We encourage you to bring along other important family members, like a spouse if applicable, or grandparents. There is no charge for additional family members and we’ll include them for a part of your session; for example, at the end.

We block out an hour for your appointment. A standard session takes approximately 30 minutes, depending on the number of people in the family and if there is an outfit change. We prefer to do two “looks” or outfits as part of our projects.

Unfortunately in the past when we offered complimentary sessions without any reservation fee, we experienced many late cancellations and no shows. We now require a $200 refundable reservation fee to book your time on the studio’s calendar. The $200 fee is fully refundable as long as you keep your appointments or provide at least 7 days notice to reschedule so that we have enough time to fill your slot.

No need to worry! Once your session is booked, we’ll send you ideas on what to wear and what works best in B&W and with our studio’s signature style. You can also read our blog post here: 

One of our dedicated designers will review your portraits with you on Zoom within 1-2 weeks after your session, allowing you to experience and reflect on the beauty of your family using our fun and efficient selection process and unique software. As you select your favorite portraits and presentations that best suit your home, aesthetic and budget, we’ll help you to feel confident in your decisions.

All orders are placed and taken care of at this meeting as on-line postings and printed proofs to take home are not available. The Zoom reveal is often described as one of our clients’ favorite and most memorable parts of working with us. Please review the Artwork Section of our website to see some of our most popular artwork for our clients.

An important note: If you are married or partnered, both you and your spouse or partner will not want to miss this Zoom, which currently takes place by appointment on Fridays and Sundays. Why is this? In most relationships, both members tend to like having at least some input (either financial or aesthetic) in the selection process. It’s also emotional, and happy tears can and do often happen. (Bring tissues, just in case!) Too many times, we have heard extreme regret when a partner has not been able to attend so while it is not required, it is strongly encouraged. Second Zoom appointments are expensive and can be challenging to accommodate as we are a boutique studio that is booked to a limited capacity so that we may serve our clients at the highest levels of attention and detail.

WE BELIEVE THAT LIFE IS JUST A LITTLE MORE MAGICAL IN BLACK AND WHITE

We understand. Life is a whirlwind. Juggling work, school runs, and your kids’ activities—all the sorts of things that make the cliche’ feel totally true: “The days are long but the years are short.”

So why not make today the perfect time to book your family photo session? Let’s check it off your list.
