HOW IT WORKS
Well, it all started with a conversation with Lauren and her mom, Jessica.
We learned Lauren was a creative as well, drawing anime and designing outfits. We knew then and there a one-off custom dress was needed...and it had to be designed by Lauren.
AND LAUREN NAILED IT !!
A wedding dress train was dyed black, corset was in place, lace was sewn, rose petals were laid down against a gorgeous, soft, deep red background that framed Lauren with slight silver streaks.
Next it was printed on a soft torchon rag paper, wrapped in black double edged, double matte and surround by a 3" red and black mahogany frame....Absolutely perfect for Jessica's beautiful home.
Artwork that was curated by both an amatuer fashion designer and a portrait artist, took 3 months, and is now a legacy portrait.

WHAT ABOUT THE INVESTMENT?
Because every portrait experience at The Focused Lens is custom-designed around the person, their story, the number of sessions needed, and the finished artwork they choose, there is no one-size-fits-all price.
This is an investment in a custom portrait experience and professionally crafted artwork—not simply a photography session or a collection of digital files—and each client’s investment is determined by the experience and artwork created for them.
"Pricelist? We don't treat a person's story as a race to be cheapest.
This is a person, a story, and a finished portrait experience designed specifically for YOU. We don't compete on price when it comes to someone's story and memories.”
Financing Options Available; some as low as 0% interest with minimum $2000 purchase
