The pfister portrait

With a career spanning over three decades, Parker Pfister’s portrait photography has been recognized and celebrated internationally, earning him numerous accolades, awards and publications.

He is renowned for his connection with the people he photographs, his meticulous attention to detail, his commitment to pushing creative boundaries, and his unwavering dedication to his craft of portrait photography.

A Pfister Portrait is an intimate sharing of both you and Parker, to tell a story. We connect in the process of the art. We follow each other to find the beauty and personality within you.

It can include your environment or they can be close and personal. 

It can  journal a particular time in your life. 

It can reveal some of your wonder.

It can play off of your personality. 

It can unveil mystery while keeping so much more hidden away. 

This is the allure of an Pfister Portrait. It can be all of these things and so much more that is unknown, until embarking on the journey of creating.

A few days after your session with Parker, you’ll receive access to a private gallery where you will select your favorite pictures for retouching and delivery. Each of our sessions includes a set of professionally retouched, ready-to-share digital pictures. Once your edits are complete, you’ll also be able to order Custom one of a kind Heirloom Prints and art pieces with us.

A collection of fleeting photographs and films created around the idea of not only seeing and remembering a fragment of time, but feeling it deeply within us. These beautifully created presentations act as a time capsule, to be opened when we need reminded of how precious your life is. We don’t realize how dear this time is until reflected upon years later. This isn’t a keepsake or just a product being sold. This is your family heirloom. Pass it on.

Add this onto any of the collections above, starting at only $500

 TESTIMONIALS

“Parker captured the essence of Finley, his whole personality and then some. What a gift to have this moment in time forever. There is no other return like this kind of investment. For anyone on the fence, make the time. Spend the money. You will not regret it.”

 

“These are so exquisite. They get me right in the parental heart and gut and are the type of heirloom images Trumies grandchildren will still be flipping out over like I am today. Thank you for this unique experience, we loved it. And needless to say we love these and all the images you’ve taken of us over the years.”

“Parker makes you feel right at home when you’re in front of his lens. With his captivating energy and comical ways he made our 6 month old feel comfortable allowing beautiful pictures to be made. Extremely grateful for his work and the way he captured my family. .”
