Painted Portraits

Fine Art Photography | Wake Forest & Raleigh NC

The look of a commissioned painting. The accuracy of a photograph.

Painted portraits combine real photography with hand-applied paint textures and techniques to produce a finished piece that looks like fine art. Not a filter, not a Photoshop effect. The process involves real materials applied to a real printed image to give it the depth and presence of something that belongs in a gallery.

These are for people who want something they've never seen done with photography. Something that belongs on the wall of a home that takes its walls seriously.

Available for families, individuals, maternity sessions, and couples. Any session type can become a painted portrait.

Not a filter. A process.

The distinction matters. What makes these pieces look the way they do is the actual application of paint over a printed photograph, which creates a surface that catches light the way canvas does. It reads differently than any purely digital effect.

Sessions for painted portraits are no different from any other session. We do the photography, you come back for the reveal, and at that point we decide which images work for the painted treatment and what finish makes sense for your space.

Something made to last.
