Meet Deborah, our portrait designer and stylist.

What exactly is a portrait designer and stylist?

This amazing idea started years ago when we first met Deborah while photographing her young kids. She was the perfect mix of helping them, fixing their hair and clothes, and then letting us work our magic.

She sparked an idea that took years to bring to life.

At that time, we thought of having her as our portrait designer and stylist. However, she wanted to devote her time to being a full-time mom and not work outside the home, so we patiently waited. Finally, when her kids started college, it was time to turn our idea into reality.

We didn't have a job opening for a portrait designer and stylist, and we didn't even know we needed one.

But with Deborah's input and skills in this area along with her degree in Fashion Merchandising, she brings exactly what is needed for this position.

She simplifies what is complicated for our clients, especially coordinating clothing for a family portrait along with handling all of the other details in planning a portrait, whether for one person or an entire family.

With Deborah's help, the decisions made throughout your journey with us result in timeless and investment-worthy portraits that deserve a place on your wall.

But she doesn't stop there. She is with you throughout the entire process, assisting us (and you) during the session and then helping in the selection of the perfect portrait.

Full circle. Deborah walks beside you on your entire journey, ensuring the perfect outcome and an unmatched experience.

We are truly fortunate to have Deborah as part of the Walden Team.

We look forward to having her continue to bring value for years to come! Thanks, Deborah!
