These fine art paper prints provide the same outstanding clarity as our acrylic prints while maintaining the "traditional" feel of framed work.

Enjoy the remarkable vibrance and clarity of high gloss acrylic prints. These prints are made on fine art paper and face mounted to plexi-glass with a polished edge. The DiBond backing adds strength and durability to ensure your pictures stay as crisp and clear on day one as they are on day 10,000.
Acrylics draw attention to themselves for their edgeless look and irreplicable color quality. They mount nearly flush to the wall andmaintain every dynamic.
Acrylics can be custom sized up to 48x90" or ordered in the following standard sizes:

Hand-Painted Canvases
These stunning pieces are printed directly onto museum-quality canvas with high-grade archival inks to deliver the best possible quality. The canvases are then hand-stretched and wrapped or framed to achieve the perfect look for your space.
All canvases are finished with a clear acrylic coating. This attention to detail draws the eye to every feature in the canvas and truly brings them to life!
Canvases are made to order in nearly any size and priced by their longest edge. Framed canvases have a maximum short edge restriction of 48", and wrapped canvases have a maximum short edge of 42". Pricing for long-edges of 60-120" available upon request.

They are made by a small business that accepts only a few new clients per year, and as such, their quality is without compare. The production process may take upwards of 16 weeks from order to arrival, but they are worth every moment of anticipation.

Folio Box & Prints
It's a case, it's a frame, it's a... folio box! These stunning, glass-topped boxes come in a variety of depths and can securely hold up to 30 matted, 8x10 prints while revealing the uppermost print in a frame-like display. They're a wonderful alternative to albums for those who love holding onto many pictures at once, and of course, the prints themselves can live anywhere you'd like!
Keep all your mats in one place, or display them all over your home; the choice is yours! Matted prints also make wonderful gifts for parents and grandparents.

Digitals
Every product purchase includes corresponding digital files of the images you choose!
Don't worry, you can still purchase additional digital files beyond those you choose to print!
Every picture we print for your wall, place in your album, or include in your folio box is included in a digital collection for you to take home at no extra cost. These digital files are sized for easy sharing online with friends and family.
What does that mean?
Our digital files are not standalone products. Limited-time session options may differ.
You may purchase additional digital files with your products for $40/each, or 5 for $150.

F.A.Q.
Do you have questions? We have answers.
You'll find the answers to our most frequently asked questions below.
Now, for the special cases - I will sometimes offer a limited-run session series (passion projects, holiday specials, etc.). These typically have their own line of digital file inclusions/pricing structures. Occasionally, I even select new products to accompany a release. Beyond that, I will make exceptions for specific uses such as corporate headshots, advertising, and branding photos where printed products may seem unnecessary. If you'd like pricing information for any of those or have a different request in mind, please do not hesitate to ask!
I understand that we live in a "digital" world, and that may make this experience a bit of an oddity, but trust me, it's worth it!
I have spent roughly 6 years dialing in the products I offer and specifically choosing to work with only the best labs for each product (even when that may be less convenient). I choose to do this because I truly believe in the value of seeing your pictures in print, and I only want to offer things that I trust will stand the test of time.
In special instances.
Session lengths can vary for a multitude of reasons. In general, family and maternity sessions last between 20 and 45 minutes (not exceeding 1 hour unless special requests or accommodations are being made), and newborn sessions last between 45 and 90 minutes.
Family sessions are tailored to single-family units. Because I know that the size of a family looks different for everyone, I don't stipulate a specific number of people in the session. With that said, direction and posing needs do change when working on a multi-generational/extended family session, so these groups are subject to a larger creative fee. See the "Investment" section for details.
We have styles that fit a range of women's sizes from 0-14. We hope to continue expanding our selection to accommodate an even larger variety of sizes and styles. If you have a look in mind that you don't see offered in our closet, please talk to us about it and we can see if we have a way to make it happen!
Absolutely! Most of the gowns work well for both maternity and non-maternity sessions and are included for use in every session type. If you would like to rent an additional gown for your session, just let me know.

"On the day of the shoot, she was so patient, and charismatic! My husband and kids loved her! Her husband was her assistant and he was so pleasant as well! Now about her work, Wow! The pictures far exceeded my expectations! I literally loved every single image! She captured our love in every picture! Thank you so much for your hard work and for creating memories that will last a lifetime for my family!"

"We loved working with McKinley during our family photo shoot. She produced amazing work! I'm still not sure how she captured so many great pics when my small kids were running around 90% of the time. She was so patient and great with the kids!
Anni D.
"She was wonderful to work with, very efficient and professional and made me feel totally comfortable in front of the camera. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a top-notch photographer."
