CLIENT LOVE

    Jared is a photography genius! What he produces is art. You can see the passion and hard work with every image. I've never had any "bad" pictures from him, and we've had a lot of sessions! He's fun and focused but helps you feel comfortable so every shot is perfect. He catches all the small details so you don't have to wish you would have. If you're looking for extraordinary, not like everyone else around here, pictures that will stand out and last a lifetime... (the red tint and I phone pictures will become the faces in a wine glass sooner or later.. just sayin' - what you get here is timeless) then Jared at Studio 21 Photography is where you need to go!!!

  • — L. Mosier, 2024 —

    Highly recommend Jared and Studio 21 Independence for portraits. Jared did a studio session for my son’s graduation portraits. Jared is a talented photographer and did a wonderful job capturing my son’s personality. We all had a great time from the consult, studio session to the delivery of portraits. Extremely pleased and will be using Jared for a family portraits soon! Thank you Jared/Studio 21!

  • — Z. Moretz, 2024 —

    I'm usually pretty awkward in front of the camera, and the idea of a senior pictures was stressing me out. But from the moment I stepped into the studio, my nerves completely vanished. They had an awesome playlist going, and Jared was so funny and easygoing. I forgot all about feeling uncomfortable and just had a blast. The pictures turned out even better than I hoped, and I'm so glad I chose Studio 21 to capture this.

  • — P. Adams, 2024 —

    I've been taking our family portraits at Studio 21 for years now, and we always have a great experience. They're amazing with our kids, even when they get a little squirmy. Jared is so patient and creative, and somehow always manages to get the perfect shots where everyone is smiling (and looking at the camera!). It's a tradition we'll keep up as long as we can.

  • — S. Grant, 2023 —

    We weren't sure how our family pictures would turn out with three kids under five, but Jared was great at keeping everyone engaged. The pictures are wonderful and really capture the chaos and love of our family.

  • — E. Smith, 2023 —

    Our newborn session with Jared was amazing. He was so patient and kind, capturing our baby girl in the most adorable poses. We're in love with every single picture!

  • — M. Johnson, 2023 —

    Our family isn't easy to photograph, with two toddlers in tow, but Jared was amazing. He turned our chaos into beautiful, lively photos that we absolutely love. Thank you so much!

  • — S. Patel, 2023 —

    Last autumn, we had a shoot with Studio 21. The kids were being their usual wild selves, but somehow, the pictures came out looking like something from a magazine. Seriously, if you want memories that look as good as they felt, this is the place.

  • — J. McHugh, 2023 —

    We are constantly receiving compliments on our photos and getting asked who took them. I have recommended so many people to you guys! Thank you so much for our photos, we are beyond in love with every photo and appreciate all the moments you captured.

  • — L. Thompson, 2023 —

    We've had pictures taken by different photographers, but nothing compares to our experiences with Studio 21. Every session feels relaxed, like we're just hanging out with friends. And the photos? Always more amazing than we remembered the day being!

  • — Q. Brown, 2023 —

    Initially, our toddler was quite fussy, and I thought the session would have to be rescheduled. Jared, however, pulled out a toy camera, turning it into a playful game. The joy on my son's face in those photos is priceless.

  • — S. Davis, 2023 —

    I mentioned to Jared how much I loved candid shots. Throughout the session, he engaged us in light conversations, making us forget the camera. When we saw the photos of us laughing and interacting, we knew for sure we'd be coming back for more family portraits in the future.

  • — R. Carson, 2023 —

    Before our scheduled session, Jared sent us a mood board to share our ideas. His dedication and preparation ensured our session went smoothly, resulting in photos that far surpassed our expectations.

  • — S. Douglas, 2022 —

    Jared's attention to detail is outstanding. He noticed the matching pendants my sister and I wore, a family heirloom, and made sure to highlight them in several shots. His thoughtfulness made our session even more special.

Get Started with Your Booking

Love what you see? If we are within your budget, we would love to discuss details and explore potential options for your session. Please fill out the form below to tell us more about your portrait needs and preferences, and we'll be in touch soon.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • We recommend scheduling your session at least one month in advance (though not mandatory), especially during peak seasons like spring and fall. This allows us to discuss and plan your session details more thoroughly, from outfit selection and location scouting to specific poses and themes, ensuring a personalized and seamless experience.

  • To secure your session, a 50% nonrefundable retainer is required at booking to secure your spot on our calendar. The remaining balance is due three days prior to your session. We offer various payment options, including debit/credit cards and checks, for your convenience.

  • We understand that weather can be unpredictable, especially for outdoor sessions. We offer flexible rescheduling options and closely monitor weather forecasts.

    Sometimes, a change in weather can offer a unique backdrop for your portraits. If you're open to it, we can discuss utilizing the weather conditions creatively to capture some truly unique images.

    We maintain clear communication with you, ensuring you're informed and comfortable with any adjustments made due to weather conditions.

  • About two weeks after your session, we invite you to join us at our studio for a portrait viewing. The session begins with a presentation of three standout moments enhanced with our signature style. This is your opportunity to select your favorite photos, and we’ll be there to guide you in choosing the perfect ways to display them.

    Following your portrait viewing, we place your order that same night, securing the pricing for you. While we offer a wide range of products, from gift prints to luxurious fine art pieces, please note that there's no obligation to order beyond what you want. Although gift prints have a minimum order of ten, there is no mandatory minimum spend for your order overall.

    You will then have a full 30 days to make your selections for each product. After finalizing your order (which includes submission of order forms, approval of proofs, and payment of invoices), prints will be ready for pickup or delivery within 2-4 weeks, subject to our current workload and lab processing times. We'll be in touch to coordinate the pickup or delivery details.

    For local clients within a 50-mile radius of our studio, we offer complimentary pickup or personal delivery of your portraits. For clients outside this radius, we provide personal delivery at a standard rate, and various shipping options are available depending on your location. Digital images will be accessible via an online gallery after you've received and approved the physical prints.

  • After your session, please allow 2-4 weeks for processing your images. If you've ordered print products, the timing may vary based on the type of product and the lab's workload. We strive to deliver your images quickly while ensuring each portrait meets our high-quality standards. Digital images will be accessible via an online gallery after you've received and approved the physical prints.
