Artwork Pricing & Collections
Wall Art
Wall art is the heart of heirloom portraiture - the pieces that become part of your home and legacy.
Our artworks are available in a full range of sizes beginning at 10”, each artwork is meticulously crafted to elevate your space and reflect the people you love with timeless elegance.
Every portrait can be created in one of our signature finishes:
Classic Finish
A beautiful blend of photographic precision and painterly artistry, enhanced with hand-rendered detailing and sealed with archival coatings for exceptional longevity.
Museum Finish
Our most popular fine-art process, fully rendered as a painting with depth, emotion and texture reminiscent of classical portrait masters.
Embellished Museum Finish
A one-of-a-kind masterpiece, hand-embellished with oils by our artists. Each brushstroke brings added texture, dimension and life, creating an heirloom piece worthy of generational display.
Classic pieces begin at 10”, while Museum and Embellished Museum portraits begin at 30” due to the level of artistic work involved.
Starting investment: $1,000
Framing is also available to add on in a variety of handcrafted styles to complement your home’s interior design.
Flexible payment options are available.
Art Box Collection
Our Art Box Collection is an elegant way to treasure multiple portraits in a single, beautifully crafted presentation. Designed as an 8"x10" keepsake box, it holds up to 10 fine-art matted prints - each one ready to be displayed, gifted or rotated throughout your home.
This collection is ideal for families who want:
• A tactile, luxurious way to experience their portraits
• A versatile display that can be refreshed throughout the year
• A meaningful gift set for loved ones such as grandparents
• A stunning tabletop showpiece that feels intimate and personal
Each portrait is printed on archival fine-art materials and professionally matted, ensuring longevity and premium quality. The box itself is handcrafted for durability and elegance, transforming your portraits into a curated collection of memories.
Starting investment: $4,500
Flexible payment options are available.
Small Artwork
Our Small Artwork collection offers a refined way to enjoy your portraits at a more intimate scale. Beginning at 8”x10”, each Classic Portrait Print is crafted to elevate the traditional print experience.
Unlike standard photographic prints, these fine-art pieces are mounted onto a rigid archival backer, giving them structure, weight and longevity. The result is a portrait that feels substantial in your hands and maintains its integrity for decades.
Small Artwork is ideal for:
• Framing to suit your décor
• Displaying on shelves, desks or bedside tables
• Creating wall groupings or gallery clusters
• Adding as companions to larger statement pieces
Whether showcased individually or as part of a carefully curated set, these portraits bring sophistication and timeless beauty to any space.
Starting investment: $300
Digital Masters Add-On
While our studio specialises in tangible heirloom artwork crafted to last generations, we also understand the importance of having a digital version of the memories you love. Digital Masters are high-resolution files prepared with the same care and artistry as your printed portraits.
A Digital Master add-on allows you to:
• Share your artwork with family and friends
• Preserve an additional copy of your portraits
• Enjoy them on your devices or social media
• Hold a digital archive that complements your heirloom pieces
Digital Masters are offered as add-ons to your artwork purchase, ensuring that your physical pieces remain the heart of your investment while still allowing you the convenience of digital sharing.
Add-on pricing starts at: $300
We offer flexible payment options to help you bring your artwork vision to life without stress for as little as $43.31/month for centerpiece portraits.
Ask our design team about split payments during your Image Reveal appointment.

The deposit secures your session date and is applied toward your final artwork investment or refunded at your Image Reveal appointment. We require this simply because we reserve the studio exclusively for your family and allocate dedicated staff time to prepare for your portrait session. The deposit ensures that your appointment is honored and that our team can provide the personalised, uninterrupted experience you deserve.
-
Prices listed are starting investments and will vary based on the size, finish and type of artwork you select. Because every portrait is custom made to order from the finish to the craftsmanship involved. Your final investment depends entirely on the pieces you choose to create for your home.
-
Digital Masters are available only as add-ons to your wall portraits. While digital files are wonderful for sharing, the true magic of fine-art portraiture lives in the physical pieces displayed in your home. Wall portraits offer presence, emotional impact and daily enjoyment in a way digital images cannot. They become part of your family’s story and preserve your memories for future generations. Digitals complement your artwork online, but the heirloom value comes from the handcrafted pieces created to last a lifetime.
