Kevin G. Saunders
Master Portrait Artist
Where Portraits Transcend Time
In a world filled with fleeting moments, Kevin G Saunders stands out as a master of timeless artistry, creating legacies that endure through time. As a leading portrait artist, my work goes beyond just capturing images; it is about encapsulating the essence and soul of successful individuals. I strive to tell their stories with profound authenticity and elegance.
A Legacy of Mastery
My journey into the art of portraiture spans decades, driven by an insatiable curiosity about human behavior and anatomy. This exploration of the human condition has given me the unique ability to see, understand, and portray the inner world of my subjects. While the mechanics of photography are straightforward for technically skilled people, revealing the soul behind the eyes is where my true mastery lies.
The Intimate Art of Portraiture
Step into my studio, and you'll find a sanctuary from the chaotic flash of modern photography. Here, the process is intimate, designed to forge a connection rather than just click a shutter. I spend time understanding you, your lineage, and your legacy. Using a meticulously updated version of the classic view camera, equipped with cutting-edge lenses and a staggering 150-megapixel sensor — technology akin to that used by NASA for capturing Earth's finest details — I recreate the lighting techniques of the old masters, blending historical artistry with contemporary precision.
Crafting Your Story
Once captured, these high-resolution images are merely the canvas. The true art begins in my post-processing, where I weave your narrative into the portrait. Each piece is a collaboration between your vision and my expertise, ensuring that the final artwork is not just a reflection but an evolution of your persona, ready to grace the halls of future generations.
Limited Edition Fine Art Collections
Beyond bespoke portraits, I've ventured into creating limited-edition fine art collections. Each collection is a thematic exploration of human emotion, societal trends, or historical moments rendered through my unique lens. These pieces are not just art; they are investments in culture and beauty, available for collectors who appreciate the depth of true craftsmanship.
Defining Your Legacy
At KGS Studios, we believe that the best art tells a story. Let us help you define your narrative for today and create a legacy that speaks across time. Whether you want to capture a special moment or craft a collection, our commitment is to deliver art that transcends the ordinary. We aim to make you, your family, or your history the protagonist in a visual saga that will inspire for generations to come.
Join me in this journey where every portrait is a step closer to immortality.
Toni C. Saunders
Director Emeritus
Toni C. Saunders joined KGS Studios after a 45-year career as a nurse (BSN, RN). Although she has retired from nursing, she has maintained her license. She serves as our Director Emeritus, contributing in various ways to help the studio thrive. Toni explains, "I have learned so much from my experience in nursing and nurse management; I believe I can significantly contribute to the studio, assisting my husband Kevin in achieving his lifelong goals. Having a sense of purpose is essential, and our portraits are transformative and affirming for our amazing clients."
Toni assists Kevin during portrait sessions, ensuring perfect draping and details for high-quality portraits. She also adds embellishments to our portraits featuring that artistry.
She states, "While Kevin is fully immersed in the studio processes and creates portraits seven days a week, I work behind the scenes to ensure everything runs smoothly."
