Commissioned Portrait Procedure & Fees
Upon being commissioned, Carol Oldenburg helps the client finalize decisions regarding formality, portrait size, clothing, poses and possible props that may be important to the subject.
Paying a deposit will lock in the current price for a year and place you in line on the artist’s portrait calendar. After the deposit, a photography shoot is scheduled. A number of composition photos are taken as well as many close-up shots for detail. These photos will assist Carol in creating your portrait.
The client and the artist review the photographs to choose the most appropriate one to create your lasting treasure. If additional photos are needed, a second photo session is scheduled and subsequently reviewed. The portrait is then completed in the artist’s studio.
