I sometimes have clients ask, “What is the difference between a photo studio vs. a portrait studio?” This is a great question! At first glance, a photo and portrait studio appear to be the same thing. They’re a place you go to get your pictures taken, right? As a photographer, I differentiate my business, SRJ Photography, as a portrait studio. Here’s what that means:
Photo Studio vs. Portrait Studio ~ What’s the Difference?
Heirloom Artwork
Perhaps the biggest thing that sets a portrait studio apart is the artwork. Most photo studios provide only digital images. And while digital is great for a lot of things, the simple fact is that computers don’t last forever, and neither do hard-drives. It’s so important to print your pictures so that you can preserve your memories. Printed pictures, not digital, are the ones you will pass down to your babies to tell the story of your family.
At the Shannon Reece Jones portrait studio, we take care of printing your pictures for you–using the very best products and craftsmanship. Our products include framed portraits, custom wall art, fine art canvas, and keepsake albums. Everything is custom-made just for you, and you get to choose all of the details. (This is actually the best part of the experience for me. Every time I deliver a gallery it feels like Christmas morning!)
Luxury Experience
Another difference between a photo studio vs. portrait studio is the experience itself. Portraits are about people, which means the process of creating these images should be one that is catered to you and feels comfortable.
In addition to artwork, I also provide a client closet and hair and makeup services, so that your session feels effortless.
I don’t limit my sessions to the studio.I’m happy to meet you at a beautiful outdoor location or travel to your home to create portraits in a setting you love.
And I am here to guide you through every step of the process. From your pre-session consultation (where we’ll discuss all the exciting details) to the delivery of your finished artwork, I am here for your and your family!
