The ARP Experience

Designed for your legacy.

Whether you’re capturing the essence of your high school senior’s final year or preserving the beauty of your family’s current chapter, I recognize the significance of these portraits. My mission is to tailor each photography session to your individual vision, providing you with timeless and stunning printed artwork.

To ensure that I deliver the highest quality service and attention to detail to every family, I accept no more than 4 sessions per month.

What’s Included:

Personal Styling & Planning. We'll work one-on-one to plan your wardrobe, location, and specific vision for your shoot.
Your Custom Session. A relaxed, unhurried experience where my goal is to capture you at your very best.
Artistry & Curation. My dedicated process for professional post-processing and hand-selecting the very best images for your gallery.
The Reveal. A guided Zoom call where I'll guide you to select your portraits.

(Note: Portraits, wall art, and digital collections are purchased separately at your Reveal Appointment.)

02. Reveal & Ordering Experience

About two weeks after your session, we'll schedule your virtual Reveal Appointment on Zoom.

It's about a 45-minute call and I'll guide you through the selection process, helping you choose the images you love most and designing custom wall art, heirloom albums, or folio boxes that fit your home perfectly. You can browse the Heirloom Product Catalog here to see the possibilities.

03. Bringing Your Portraits Home

I’m a firm believer that your most important memories deserve a place in your home- on your walls or in an album- not just tucked away on a phone or a social media page. Every story is unique, and I want your portrait collection to reflect that.

While I offer a variety of options to fit different needs, most of my clients choose to invest digital and art collections starting at $795.

Individual prints start at $75.
A matching Digital File is included with every heirloom portrait purchased. It's the best of both worlds- art for you home and a high-quality file for sharing with friends and family online.

Beyond the Digital File: Creating Tangible Art for Your Home

Too often, your portraits end up as files lost somewhere on a flash drive collecting digital dust. That's not what I want for you!

Your portraits should be more than temporary- more than an annual memory on your social media feed- they should be artwork that you can physically touch and experience every day. Artwork that reminds you of this exact moment of your life and that you and your family will cherish for years.

That's why I've built this process the way I have; differently than most: to make portraits personal again, and for you to walk away from the whole experience with something lasting.

Because I handle every aspect of your session, from styling to custom wall art design, availability is strictly limited. Please contact me as early as possible to secure your date on the calendar.

Every session begins with a conversation.

In Their Words...

Ms. Melania V., San Antonio

"Working with Amado was a great experience. He’s extremely talented and I couldn’t have been happier with the results. Few photographers have this style—if you want your portraits to look like a fine art oil painting, he should be your guy!"

Mrs. Lorena P.

"Words could not ever express how amazed we were with our daughter's senior pictures! Absolutely worth EVERY penny! Thank you so much!"

Mrs. Jessica P.

"Loved the photos Amado took of our family! He is very professional and made the process so fun and easy. We will definitely use him again for our future sessions!"
