The sections below discuss these types of portrait needs in more detail.

Families
Parents want the cutest possible portraits of their children to give out to friends and family, and to cherish in the future once their kids have grown.
Few things are as bittersweet as reminiscing over childhood photos and experiencing those mingled feelings of fierce pride at who your children have become and tender regret that they are no longer your babies. That is one of the reasons that children’s portraits are so valuable; they are truly a window into the past.
Since they change so much and so quickly, younger children need new portraits frequently, especially if they are active in sports teams or school clubs. Older children need quality portraits to commemorate a variety of milestones, such as a confirmation, a bar mitzvah, or a graduation.
Finally, a professionally composed family portrait makes an ideal addition to the living wall behind your sofa. However, that is easier said than done. It is extremely (and infamously) difficult for amateurs to capture a family portrait in which everybody looks good. Typically, Mom’s hair is askew, Dad’s eyes are askance, and Junior’s mouth is agape, while the dog is half out of the frame darting after the neighbor’s cat.
Are you a parent being hounded by family members for photos of a child who is growing up too fast? Do you need portraits of your soccer star, debate club leader, or honor student? Is your “little one” getting confirmed or graduating from high school? John G. Las Vegas Portrait Photography can work with your family to create memories you can treasure for the rest of your life.
We are happy to travel to you; we will take your child’s photos at school, on the sports field, or at another indoor or outdoor location of your choosing. We are also willing to incorporate any props you like, including:
- Musical instruments
- Sports equipment
- Favorite toys
- Family pets
- Electronic devices
- Automobiles or motorcycles
Your child’s portrait can be as simple or complex as you like. We can also take action shots, if you desire.
