Family Legacy Portraits
A family portrait at KGS Studios goes beyond a simple photograph. It is a unique heirloom that captures your family’s character at a special moment, preserving your story for future generations.
Documenting Every Chapter
of Your Story
A family’s story unfolds over many years. A Family Legacy Portrait is more than a single event. It’s a chance to create a special piece at every vital stage, from young families to honoring several generations and celebrating lasting bonds.

A Collaborative & Respectful Process
Commissioning a Family Legacy Portrait is a meaningful experience, and our process is designed to make it comfortable, inspiring, and rewarding. We believe in involving you in the process, rather than simply seeking your consent. Our goal is to build trust so you feel at ease and can show your true self to the camera, and allow artist Kevin G. Saunders to create a true masterpiece with his artistry.
1. The Conversation
Every commission starts with a conversation, not a camera. We listen to your vision, your story, and what you want from the portrait. This way, we make sure we’re on the same page before we begin creating your heirloom.
2. The Vision & Preparation
We help you with every aspect of preparation, from selecting outfits and styling to setting the mood for the portrait. Careful planning leads to a portrait you’ll be proud of. There are no surprises, just a shared focus on creating something excellent.
3. The Sitting
The portrait session happens in a private, calm setting. We use classic lighting and take our time, so you can relax and let your true character shine through.
4. The Unveiling & Selection
This is when your vision comes to life. We review your portraits together, projecting them large on our gallery projection wall so you can see exactly how they’ll look at any size. You can try out different museum-quality frames to find the one that suits you best. You have the final say, and only the image you truly love will become your family heirloom.
An Heirloom Investment
Commissioning a Family Legacy Portrait is more than a purchase; it’s a lasting investment in your family’s story. Unlike other luxury items, a portrait continues to grow in value and brings meaning to generations.
Every commission is unique and collaborative. The final cost depends on your vision, including the size of the portrait and the museum-grade frame you choose. We provide a custom quote after a free consultation, and you can find our price details here.
The Journey to a Masterpiece.
