Breaking into the world of modeling can feel overwhelming – especially for children, teens, and young adults who are just discovering their potential. The right photography experience can make all the difference. It’s not just about taking pictures; it’s about building confidence, telling a story, and creating images that feel authentic, professional, and uniquely you. That is exactly where PhotoArtGraphy shines.
Based in New Freedom, Pennsylvania, PhotoArtGraphy is a boutique, independent photography business specializing in custom modeling portrait sessions for child models, preteen models, teen models, and young adult models. Serving families and aspiring models throughout York County, PA, as well as Carroll County, Baltimore County and Harford County, Maryland, PhotoArtGraphy offers a refreshingly personal alternative to the mass-produced, one-size-fits-all photo sessions so common in the modeling world.
A Boutique Experience Designed for Aspiring Models
Many aspiring models are introduced to photography through large studio sessions that rush clients through fixed poses, standard backdrops, and minimal personalization. PhotoArtGraphy was created to be the opposite of that experience.
Every session is fully customized from start to finish. From location and wardrobe to lighting and creative direction, each shoot is designed around the individual model’s personality, comfort level, and goals. Whether a young child is stepping in front of the camera for the first time or a teen is building a serious modeling portfolio, PhotoArtGraphy takes the time to make the experience enjoyable, supportive, and empowering.
This boutique approach ensures that no two sessions are ever the same – and that each model walks away with images that feel genuine rather than generic.
Three Decades of Experience Behind the Lens
At the heart of PhotoArtGraphy is Drew Jensen, the studio’s primary photographer. With over 30 years of professional photography experience, Drew brings not only technical mastery but also a calm, encouraging presence that puts clients at ease.
For younger models especially, comfort and trust are essential. Drew understands how to communicate clearly with children and teens, helping them feel relaxed and confident in front of the camera. Parents can feel reassured knowing their child is working with an experienced professional who prioritizes safety, respect, and positive reinforcement throughout the session.
This depth of experience also means Drew knows how to adapt on the fly – adjusting lighting, angles, and pacing to match each model’s needs and energy level.
Photography That Comes to You
One of PhotoArtGraphy’s most distinctive features is its travel-based photography service. Instead of requiring clients to come to a studio, PhotoArtGraphy travels directly to the model’s home or location of choice.
This opens up nearly endless creative possibilities. Sessions can take place:
- At home, for a comfortable and familiar setting
- In parks, fields, forests, or urban locations
- At meaningful or visually striking spots chosen by the model and family
For models who thrive in natural environments – or who feel nervous in traditional studios – this flexibility can be transformative. Being photographed in a favorite place often results in more natural expressions and authentic images.
PhotoArtGraphy can even split sessions across multiple locations or multiple days, allowing for outfit changes, varied scenery, and a richer final collection of images.
Extreme Customization, Down to the Details
Customization is not an add-on at PhotoArtGraphy – it’s the foundation of every session.
Clients can choose:
- Multiple outfits to showcase different looks and styles
- Custom lighting setups tailored to mood and environment
- Special effects, incorporated tastefully to enhance creativity
- Location-specific concepts, from rustic outdoor portraits to clean, modern looks
To make outdoor sessions even more practical, PhotoArtGraphy offers a portable changing tent, allowing wardrobe changes in places where buildings aren’t nearby. This small but thoughtful detail makes a big difference, especially for shoots in fields, woods, or parks.
The result is a session that feels less like a photo appointment and more like a creative collaboration.
Built for Models at Every Early Stage
PhotoArtGraphy specializes in serving models from childhood through young adulthood, recognizing that each age group has unique needs.
- Child models benefit from a relaxed, playful approach that captures genuine expressions.
- Preteen models gain confidence through guided posing and positive feedback.
- Teen models can explore a variety of looks as they begin building portfolios.
- Young adult models receive polished, professional images suitable for agencies and casting calls.
No matter the age, the goal is the same: to create images that highlight individuality while meeting professional standards.
Custom Pricing for Truly Custom Sessions
Because no two sessions are alike, pricing at PhotoArtGraphy is fully custom. Rather than forcing clients into preset packages, PhotoArtGraphy provides personalized quotes based on the specific details of each shoot.
Factors may include:
- Length of the session
- Number of locations
- Number of outfits
- Creative complexity and special effects
- Travel requirements
This approach ensures clients pay for exactly what they want – no more, no less – while maintaining transparency and flexibility.
