Portrait Wins Best in Class in Alberta Competition

Shelley Vandervelde of The Art Portraiture submitted three images that were accepted into the Professional Photographers of Canada Alberta Image Salon.  The press release at the bottom tells you what that means. "Bathtime", created during a Storybook session "The Ole Barnyard", was nominated Best in Class for Child Portrait.

"Center of Attention", created at a wedding in Jamaica, was transformed into a painting, printed and framed to display over the Mother of the Bride's fireplace. It was nominated Best in Class for Wedding Group Portrait.

"Newly Widowed", created after the loss of this man's wife, was nominated and received Best in Class for Portrait and a Judge's Choice Award. 

I would like to thank each and every person who has trusted their image and their family's legacy to me. Most portraits are created during times of transition such as:

  • graduations

  • new relationships

  • weddings

  • the birth of babies

  • new careers

  • the completion of families

  • becoming single (divorced or widowed)

  • retirement

  • the celebration of generations

I pour my heart and soul into every session. A commissioned portrait begins with a complimentary design session. This session allows me to learn what it is my clients would like to have created so that I can make that desire a reality.

My specialty is creating heirloom wall portraits that will be enjoyed for generations. My work has been described as classical and timeless, not dated by trends in wardrobe, backdrops or photographic styles. I specialize in creating themed storybooks that feature your child(ren). They will ask you to read these books to them again and again. I know that one day, they will be reading them to their children and maybe even their grandchildren.

Book Your Complementary Design Session

I would love to create portraits for You! Book your complimentary design session and let me bring your ideas to life.
