Of course Serene is not limited to doing portraits of children, as long as you can provide a photo for her consideration. Engagement, wedding, families, ancestral photos - just send a picture and ask for a quote. More details below.

How to order a portrait

Through email or phone correspondence, you and the artist will agree on the details of your portrait, a price quote and approximate finish date will be given. The artist will make a PayPal request for payment for 1/2 the quote as a down payment, and upon receipt will begin the portrait. Upon completion, you will be sent a digital photo of the portrait, and a PayPal request for payment for the balance of the quoted price plus shipping (shipping is approximately $10). Upon receipt, the portrait will be shipped via USPS Priority Mail.
