LEGACY PORTRAIT Experience

A Gift That Lasts a Lifetime

Portraits of the women who made you who you are.

Somewhere along the way, the relationship between a mother and daughter begins to change.

You grow up. You build a life of your own. And one day, you begin to see your mother not only as Mom, but as a woman with her own stories, sacrifices, dreams, lessons and experiences.

Legacy Portraits were created to give you the time and space to celebrate that relationship now.

Whether it's you and your mom, three generations with Grandma, or the women who have become family along the way, this is more than a portrait session.

It's a chance to say the things we don't say often enough, create beautiful portraits together, and preserve both for the generations that come after you.

Two women in black dresses share a tender moment, holding a handwritten letter.

We had such a wonderful experience with Marando Studios during our mother-daughter portrait session. From the moment we walked in, she made both my mom and me feel completely at ease—especially my mom, who normally isn’t a fan of being in front of the camera. Her calm, encouraging energy made the whole process feel natural and fun. The photos turned out absolutely beautiful—more than I ever could’ve hoped for. It’s a memory I’ll always cherish and be reminded of every time I see our portraits hanging in my home.

Step 1.

Make Your Reservation

Once your Legacy Portrait Experience is reserved, we'll begin planning the details together, including who will participate, where your session will take place and how you'd like your portraits to feel.

Step 2.

Receive Your Legacy Letters

Each participant receives custom MARANDO Studios stationery and a little guidance to help you begin writing. You won't share your letter ahead of time. That's part of the magic.

Step 3.

Create Your Portraits

On the day of your session, I'll guide you through a relaxed portrait experience designed around connection rather than perfection.

We'll create individual portraits, portraits together and plenty of the beautiful in-between moments.
