I photograph in the Victor studio and Christine photographs at our Greece location. For over 27 years, people in the Rochester area have entrusted myself and Christine to capture the important milestones in their family’s lives through our hearts, eyes and lens’.

SENIOR PORTRAITS BY KEEPSAKE PHOTOGRAPHY What’s the big deal about senior pictures? In just over a year, your son or daughter will leave home and head off to college. They don’t know the significance of these pictures yet, but as parents, we do. The senior portrait is the one portrait you will display in your home for the rest of your life. It’s how you will remember them after they have left your loving home. There are a lot of people out there taking senior pictures. But remember; just having a nice camera doesn’t make someone qualified to do it any more than having a fancy pair of scissors qualifies them to cut your hair! You deserve awesome senior portraits of your son or daughter and they deserve to have an amazing experience with this once in a lifetime portrait that you will cherish forever. And although it may seem attractive to have some amateur do it and just give you a disc of the pictures; ask yourself: Is this really a good idea? What will you do, print your own pictures at some big box or web site? They will look terrible and you will regret it forever. Then all you will have is a worthless disc. A beautiful hand crafted portrait from Keepsake will warm your heart each time you walk past it for the rest of your life. A disc can’t do that. So, the decision you make soon will determine whether you smile with joy each time you walk past their senior portrait, or if you cringe with disappointment because you made a bad choice. Your son’s or daughter’s senior portraits are part of your family’s story. Don’t let just anyone with a camera tell it. Schedule with a friendly person via phone

SEE THE DIFFERENCE!
Take notice of the FIVE things that will set your senior pictures apart when you choose Keepsake!
Gorgeous warm skin tones edited to natural perfection (not fake plastic looking skin like amateurs). Our digital artists have years of experience in professional photo editing. The background should compliment your outfit and create a mood without taking away from the main subject, you!
Beautiful professional lighting to compliment the symmetry of your face while making your eyes sparkle full of life.
Posing that looks natural and flatters, yet looks easy and spontaneous. Just choosing someone who has a nice camera will not ensure you look awesome in your senior pictures. It takes a professional photographer with decades of experience to make you look your very best and to show off your best features.

Learn why families spend more on senior portraits than regular school pictures. The senior portrait is much more than the annual picture taken in the school gym. It’s a real photo shoot designed to capture their personality, interests, values, talents; everything that makes them the person they have become. It’s the last portrait of your son or daughter before they leave home. This is the one portrait you will display in your home for the rest of your life; It will never get replaced. So most families get something larger for their home, smaller prints as gifts for family & friends, a senior album with a variety of poses as a keepsake memory, plus digital collections to share images online. Maybe now you can see the reason people spend more on senior portraits; because they order so much more than regular school pictures.

WHAT’S SO GREAT about Keepsake anyway?
You know what to expect. Keepsake is a family owned business where the owners are the photographers. Both have over 25 years of experience making people look their very best. You won’t remain in business that long without staying on top creatively and without taking very good care of your clients! A friendly, personalized experience. From the moment you arrive for your photo shoot until the day you pick up your finished portraits; everything is all about you, your wants and your needs. Love it or your money back. We guarantee that you will love the images from your photo shoot or we’ll take more to your liking at no charge or refund your money. Whichever you choose. No pressure, private order design session. Our portrait designers will help you choose the best images using a state of the art projection system that can accurately show you what portraits will look like on the walls of your home before you purchase. And because we don’t have any constraining packages, you’ll get everything you want and nothing you don’t need with payments spread out so you can fit it all in without breaking the bank. Everything that matters is included. All finished portraits are fully retouched, custom cropped, traditionally printed, dry mounted and hand lacquered for a lifetime of beauty and protection. We even include a custom frame with all traditional wall display portraits so you don’t have the added expense of a frame shop. That can save you hundreds and a big headache! We’ll even deliver your yearbook portrait directly to school so you don’t have to worry about that either!

AN AWESOME EXPERIENCE! I absolutely LOVED my senior pictures from Keepsake! My brother also got his taken there too. The photo shoots were so much FUN! I had my own private dressing room too. Every photo set was really cool and they took a variety of a lot of different pictures! I LOVE keepsake and I recommend them 100%! - Shelby D. from Mercy
Keepsake is about so much more than senior pictures. They capture the true essence of your child at a very special time in their life that you will cherish forever. Long after they have left for college, these portraits are a reminder of your family unity and legacy. We also have beautiful family portraits by Keepsake that grace rooms in our home. To us, they are family heirlooms! - Mary A. from Williamson

I was so nervous. What if the pictures come out terrible? What if they are mean? What if they kicked me out for life?!? It was the complete opposite! Everyone was so nice and made me feel as if I was the most important person in the world. I honestly can’t think of anything negative to say. It was one of the best experiences in my life :) Thank you guys so much!! - Caroline S. from Canandaigua
