📣 New this year: Individuals and sibling portraits will require advance registration. Be sure to sign up (in September) so your child doesn’t miss this year’s Fine Art School Portrait experience. More details coming soon!
Welcome!
I’m Stephanie, a Kirkland-based child and family photographer. As a mom, I know how quickly these school years pass. My hope is to create portraits that capture the little expressions, glances, and moments that make your child unmistakably themselves. The kind of portraits that make you smile because you think, "Yes... that's exactly them."
What Makes These Portraits Different?
Timeless by Design
A simple black backdrop keeps the focus exactly where it belongs: on your child. The clean, contemporary style is designed to look just as beautiful framed in your home today as it will years from now.
A Gallery, Not Just One Image
Your child will receive a thoughtfully curated gallery of portraits, featuring a variety of natural expressions and angles instead of a single school picture. Together, they tell a richer story of this season in your child's life.
A Tradition Worth Keeping
Year after year, these portraits become more than school pictures. They become a collection that tells the story of your child's elementary years, from chubby cheeks and a toothless grin to growing confidence and a twinkle in their eye.
Imagine placing these portraits side by side at graduation and seeing the story of your child's elementary years unfold, preserving the little details you didn't realize were changing until they were gone.
“Oh my goodness, I can’t even describe how much we love these photos and how much they mean to us. They literally brought tears to my husband’s eyes.”
-E. Anderson
Sibling Portraits
A BOUTIQUE OFFERING
There's something especially heartwarming about seeing siblings step in front of the camera together. Older siblings naturally encourage the younger ones, while little ones light up when they see a familiar face.
Families may choose to register for a sibling portrait session in addition to individual portraits, creating a beautiful collection that celebrates this special season of growing up together at Les Lilas. Years from now, these portraits will serve as a reminder not only of who they were, but of the school years they shared.
