Your likeness in silver and light - handmade heirlooms for you and yours

At the moment appointments for studio portrait sessions are only available on Saturdays from 2-6:00. The River Arts District is recovering and rebuilding from catastrophic flooding. Please email with any questions or concerns.
Studio portrait sessions use strobe lighting and more of a high contrast, dramatic headshot style. House calls/Porch portraits are taken using only natural lighting, they are more ethereal and tend to have a softer focus - which may not be best for those with young children.
The studio cannot accommodate more than 3 people in a photograph. If you have a group of 4 or more I can photograph in groups of 2-3. It is recommended that portraits are most impactful when taken solo. Coupled images require a bit more effort to achieve focus and may have softer spots throughout the photograph. The more faces we add the harder it is to achieve crystal clear focus on each subject.
Studio portrait sessions are strictly standing / waist up. If you have a vision in mind that needs a bit more flexibility than this offers please book the “customized portrait session” or shoot an email: info@saramulvey.com
Paper moon: The paper moon prop is only available during Paper Moon Portrait events and not the same studio setup as normal studio sessions.
Kids: Please be sure to read through the FAQ prior to booking a portrait with your child.
Glasses: Please plan on being photographed without your glasses - if you’d like to have glasses on in your tintype you can bring a pair that have the lenses popped out to our session.
Pets: If you’re interested in having you pet included in your portrait it must be pre-approved, once you’ve emailed I will send you a private scheduling link.
Local tintype pickup is every Friday from 12-2, it is remember to pickup your physical copy. Digital scans will not be emailed until you pick up your tintype from the studio.
✧ You will be considered a no show if you are late to your appointment by 15 minutes or more without making contact. ✧
Please be sure to read through the FAQ and our Policies prior to scheduling your session.
