We created this private group for one purpose: to help portrait photographers build boutique studios that thrive on fewer clients, higher sales, and deeper impact.

But success in this world isn’t just about selling—it’s also about elevating your craft. That’s why this group is equally dedicated to helping you grow as an artist as much as an entrepreneur.

Inside this community, you’ll find the support, tools, and high-level conversations that rarely happen in traditional photography groups. This is where we go beyond just beautiful images—and focus on building luxury boutique portrait businesses.

Whether you're just beginning to explore higher-end portrait sales or you're ready to evolve your portrait work to museum-quality impact, you're in the right place.

This isn’t about volume. This is about value—and creating art that lasts.

We’re so glad to have you here. Let’s build something meaningful together.

—Connie & Bob

Founders, Luxury Portrait Society

Portrait artists, educators, and passionate champions of what’s possible when creativity meets strategy.

For over 20 years, we’ve built a life around the craft of portraiture. Not just through capturing meaningful imagery for families and individuals, but by building successful portrait studios that have stood out in an ever-changing industry. Together, we’ve owned and operated two separate portrait studios, each with its own unique specialty—proof that meaningful artistry can take many forms, and success has more than one path.

We are both proud recipients of the Master of Photography degree, a distinction awarded for artistic excellence and professional achievement. We’ve also each earned the Photographic Craftsman degree—granted to those who dedicate themselves to mentoring and educating fellow photographers and have been honored to both receive the PPA National Award. As past presidents of the Arizona Professional Photographers Association, we’ve invested years not only in mastering our own studios, but in lifting others who share our love for this profession.

We founded Luxury Portrait Society as a culmination of our journey. It's a private community of portrait artists that shares our love for creating heirloom quality portraits that are meaningful to clients, while elevating their studio into a boutique, low-volume, high-value business.
