COMMISSIONED CUSTOM PORTRAITS
Meadowbrook Studio offers a variety of custom portraits, specializing in a popular series of children's portraits that includes children playing along the shoreline, playing sports, and dancing, Also available are the traditional, classically posed portraits photographed either on location (such as your home, the beach, or by a garden), in studio, or working from photographs that you may provide if necessary. Portraits of pets, homes and boats are also available. To view samples of custom portraits see the Portrait Portfolio.
