Formal Children’s Portraits | Studio Walz | Lexington Ky

Not too long ago it was not unusual for a family to bring their children in for formal portraits. Sometimes families brought their children in one at a time when they reached a certain “age” or the whole family would come in. Enlargements were ordered for the living room to mark the cornerstone. Now, we receive calls from people wanting to know if we actually have a studio and do we have fill lights and reflectors. They are looking for a family photographer that can be there for the special times in their family’s life marking those special occasions as births, christenings, first communion, family portraits, high school senior portraits and weddings.

We have found that children raised coming to Studio Walz for their portraits are always at ease and love their time here. They grow up knowing Scott as their family photographer and are excited to see us when they arrive. Truly, our clients become a member of our extended family.

The times may have changed and we have changed along with it but we will not stop photographing the timeless formal portrait. Here are some images taken of this precious little girl. She loved her time in front of the camera and her special time being the center of attention.

Caroline | children and family photographer lexington ky

We love the children we photograph. It’s a special time in their lives when there is not a care in the world. Laughter is all around these precious children. 

I know I would love to go back to a time when my only worry is what game I would be playing next.  

This little one we absolutely adore!

You may have seen her photograph before. We have an enlargement of her in the main entrance hall leading to the studio. Also, we have a sample album of her too.

Many of our clients find an album is a good solution to loving and wanting a lot of the photographs from their portrait session. And an album is easily transportable too so you can take it with you to show your family and friends.

Francis Family | family portraits lexington ky

The Francis family loved the pictures we had taken of their daughter at her school so they decided to try us out. Since we only do a few school projects, I don't consider us as school photographers. I always tell clients when they say "we have never had school pictures this nice before" it's because we maintain our same quality at a school as we do in our studio. We have a high standard that always must be met. These little darlings were wonderful to photograph. They truly had a blast. We love children that love to play because Scott loves to play with them. He has as much fun as they do.

The Ogle family has a standing appointment with us on the same day of every year. Having pictures take for Christmas gifts and Christmas cards are their high priority. It's always a lot of fun watching the creative process with this crew. We love catching with up the kids and hearing all about what's happening at school. You know, who's playing what sport this year and of course, "how are your grades?".

This gal is a cutie and many of you have seen her picture grace our "wall of honor". When she was about eight months old and her very first visit to Studio Walz, Scott got the cutest picture of her and we still have up a gorgeous black and white portrait of her.
