Children's photos Raleigh, Cary NC

Marvel may have Captain America and Iron Man, but neither of these heroes can compare to Captain J, Portraits by Steven’s very own caped crusader. Soaring over skyscrapers and eliminating crime, he is just the superhero the city of Fayetteville needs; however, his superhero powers exist only through the lens of Steven Ashmore’s camera.

In preparation for this portrait, Steven met with Captain J’s mother to discuss her thoughts of the setting and costume. As a long time client, she enjoyed taking the children to portrait sessions during phases or special events in their lives. For this particular session, she explained that her son was fascinated by superheroes and she recently purchased a blue cape for him personalized with a lightning bolt and a red “J.” Her desire was to capture this wonderful phase of his childhood and trusting Steven’s vision, she allowed him the creative freedom to pursue the portrait as he imagined for this family. The final result was creativity at its best.

Dressed in his cape, our little superhero jumped from box to box as he surveyed the buildings below. The cityscape created by Steven greatly resembled a scene found in a comic book and multiple graduated images were then arranged and added to make it appear as though the child was flying through the air.

Captain J was a delight to work with, but it was the relationship with his mother that made the photography session most enjoyable. Chosen as the photographer for her bridal portrait, the staff at Portraits by Steven accompanied this mother and her family through a majority of the significant and meaningful events in their lives. From maternity and newborn sessions to portraits of her daughter in a ballet costume or her son hitting a home run in the photography studio, they had the pleasure of being a part of this family’s life and watching the children grow up. This mother’s willingness to contribute her own ideas to personalize the portrait and to trust Steven’s vision and gift for creativity allowed him the freedom to produce a portrait that was unique. Relationships like these with clients are the heart of Portraits by Steven and our desire is to become a part of your family as we strive to capture those special moments for you.
