WHY WE INCLUDE PRINTED PRODUCTS IN EVERY COLLECTION:
Celebrate your family and life's milestones with gorgeous photography on the walls of your home. A prominently displayed family portrait will be an emotional reminder of how quickly life passes and the love you have for each other. If you don't have space on your walls we have several table top products that our clients love!
As an art historian, and photographer of over 25 years, I know how important it is to have your photographs printed and displayed. When you invest in portrait artwork, you are investing in more than just decor. These pieces will become heirlooms and beautiful treasures for future generations.
WE MAKE CHOOSING EASY!
We know choosing what to include in your Collection may seem like a daunting task and that is why we walk you through every step. Starting with our pre-shoot design consultation, we'll have a good idea of where you'd like to feature your portraits and what products will work best for your needs.
During the shoot, we keep all this in mind and create your portraits accordingly. After the shoot, you'll enjoy a beautiful slideshow of your entire session and we will assist you in the selection of your portraits, along with illustrating what the different portrait sizes with frames will look like on your walls of your home.
We even deliver the beautifully finished images right to your home doorstep, complete with instructions and all the hardware you need to easily install the art in your home.
We would love to connect if you are ready to create your own, one of kind, personal family home art.

Mylinda N. - Herriman, Utah ★★★★★
"I wanted some family pictures to brighten up our home, so I contacted Monica. She was quick to respond and coordinate with me, and she helped me prepare for some beautiful photos by reviewing some color schemes, selecting a location and time that fit our family dynamics, and arranging for someone to help keep my two very busy boys focused and happy. The photo shoot was enjoyable and efficient, and the review of photos was amazing (she made a compilation video with music!). When the photos arrived, they were easy to hang and look absolutely lovely in the areas of my home that we had discussed and planned for. The photos are bright, inviting, natural, and artistic. Thank you so much!!!"
Janel G. - Herriman, Utah ★★★★★
"When I saw my first photo I couldn’t believe it was me!?!? The picture looked like a model in a magazine! I really enjoyed working with Monica and her daughter! Even my husband said she is the best photographer we have had yet and it’s his idea to go back this fall for more family photos! She is very professional and gives great direction on poses. We went for family and a maternity photo shoot so I actually did 2 sessions. The pictures turned out beautiful and we can’t wait to go again. Thanks for such a great experience!"

"Monica Burby and her sweet daughter gave my family a wonderful experience during our first family shoot. I have a wild 2 year old, 4 month old and a dog. She worked with us and made it very comfortable. My child would not stay still and she managed to get us beautiful pictures. I recommend her for any type of shoot and my family found a forever photographer."
