Have you ordered school portraits for your student in grades 9-11 at CCA or Torrey Pines? There’s an extra bonus! You may have seen in the price list that family portraits at the studio (inside or our courtyard) or Windansea Beach in La Jolla are available for $49 and $79 respectively. There are a few examples below. Sessions are available between now and October 31, and you will be able to order prints and packages at our greatly reduced senior prices.

To arrange for your session, simply e mail schools@keanestudios.com, with the message line Family Portraits. In the e mail, just let us know how many are in your family, what names and ages are the children, and whether you would prefer the studio, courtyard or Windansea Beach.

Also, let us know if there are particular days of the week or times of the day that work better for you than others. Windansea portraits are created within the last two hours before sunset, or before 9:00 am in the morning.

Finally, let us know the best number and most convenient time for us to contact you.

We just placed a new portrait display at Strasburg Children in the Carlsbad Co. Stores. Strasburg is the home of some of the most elegant children’s clothing in the country, and we are pleased to have a great relationship with them. See Cathy, the manager there. She’ll tell you about our photographing her now teen-age daughter with bunnies years ago. Now, among other things, we photograph the bunnies at her store in the spring.

Here’s one of the portraits of beautiful Sophie that’s now on display. She and her mom are clients of both clients are Keane Studios and Strasburg. The other features Sophie wearing Strasburg clothing in our courtyard.

It was recently our pleasure to have Ms. Abigail Skale of Poway stop by Keane Studios while on a shopping expedition with her mum and baby sister. We were delighted to have Ms. Skale, and her long time companion Mr. Sponge Bob, visit the studio while sister Annabelle was being photographed. It is rumored that Abby, as she is known to a select few, was on her way to shop for an outfit suitable for her fourth birthday portrait sitting. Older brother Alex was not immediately available for comment.
