Missions Portraits unique portrait experience that caters to the imagination of each child that visits our studio. From the first step into Missions Portraits, children are transported to a fairytale land full of wonderment, and laughter. This means each session at Missions Portraits is a magical and interactive fun-fest!
Missions Portraits' mission is to have our ethereal portraits we are world renowned for, create a positive impact not just in the lives of our little subjects, but to those less fortunate in our community.
In order to accomplish our mission, 100% of proceeds from every session fee are donated to Kidd's Kids. Proceeds help send children with terminal and life-altering conditions on a trip to create magical moments with their families to Walt Disney World. It is beautiful human enrichment experiences like these that give these amazing children the strength to continue their battle.
When you donate $25 per child to Kidd's Kids we will give you a complimentary portrait session AND a limited edition 8x10 portrait. 100% of proceeds will help kids that are terminally ill and special needs.

I also believe it helps build children's self esteem when they are beautiful portraits displayed in their home. I decided to be a part of this charity event because it is a way I can do what I love and also make a difference in the world."
