Sometimes, when i’m home doing portraits and i’m alone, i tear up thinking about the loved ones missed by so many — and seeing them surrounded by family that i’ve placed around them, it’s just a very emotional hobby with so much reward. i really love making these for you guys and i’m so glad to be trusted enough for such sentimental artwork 🥹🤍 i really put my entire heart into each one because i know how special they are to the recipients.

i’m so proud to be able to provide these to you all. Here’s the portrait that started it all — My great grandmother and my 2 babies. She passed away when I was 4 years old and despite having done over a hundred portraits since, this is my most special piece 🖼️ when I gifted it to my nana last Christmas, my whole living room was filled with tears and our hearts were just a little bit fuller. despite never having been able to meet my girls, this picture sums up just how much she would love them. the same way she loved me. 💞

Shoot me a message if you’d like a portrait this holiday season. Nothing tops the gift of a photo you never knew would be possible ❤️❤️

Hey all! The holidays are here and i’m so excited that busy season has hit with a bang! Unlike last year, where I allowed myself to accept portrait orders well after I swore I was cutting them off (I was still accepting and doing them Christmas data) This year, I will have a strict cut-off. Portraits of 5 or less cut-off and Christmas Eve digital delivery guarantee will be December 12. Portraits of over 5 people with a Christmas Eve delivery guarantee will be December 8th.

In order to ensure I can fulfill your request and have it to you on time, please do not wait to order if you’re thinking about it! If orders come tumbling in, and I need to cut-off orders sooner than planned, I will inform you here! Again, please do not wait.

I have received 10 orders in 4 days which is such a huge blessing! This small business of mine allows me to give our 2 girls an amazing Christmas and I am so grateful for the support between last year and this year that has helped provide Christmas for my family! If this year is anything like last, my plan is to help another family buy their little ones Christmas as well. Please know the money you spend on my small business goes back into not only my family, but others as well and i’m so thankful to all of my past, current and future customers that have allowed that to happen!

Order ASAP to ensure you get your loved one a gift they will never forget 🎄🎁 ❤️

Hello past and future clients! Here is my updated holiday pricing list! If you have unique portrait needs that you feel are not represented in my price list, shoot me a message for a custom quote! Excited for the holiday season and hopeful you will choose Pastel Portrait Designs to bring your dream to life.

Some common portraits I get asked to create are of deceased parents/grandparents with grandchildren, a beloved pet inserted into family photos, and other deceased loved ones with other members of family. I love hearing the stories behind the portraits I complete and I hope to serve you and your family this holiday season with a new staple piece for you or a loved ones home, that will certainly be a tear-jerker 💕

I can make portraits with individual photos or group photos, and i’m happy to accommodate even the most blurry and distorted of photos you may have 😊 Happy Holidays!

Hello clients!

it has come to my attention that some photo centers (ie. walgreens, cvs) requires a copyright release to print off some of my artwork. if you run into this issue, please shoot me a message so i can send you a release! i’ve never had this happen until recently but i’ve drafted a release form for this circumstance, and i will also send one going forward, with any portraits or other work you may have done by me — just in case 😊

just an FYI ❤️❤️❤️🫶🏻

‼️SELLING MY HUSBANDS CAR‼️

‘04 Mitsubishi Endeavor. 54K miles on odometer, but we did a motor swap so closer to 120k. There’s a crack in the windshield (insurance replaces for free), needs radio, A/C charge and slight tire wobble on the left side. It’s his daily driver and he just got a new car, so we no longer have any use for it. This is a great get around car!!!!
