Time in New York moves fast. At Madivan Studios, we specialize in monochromatic children’s portraiture that strips away the noise of color and trends. We focus on capturing moments where your most treasured person in the world can be entirely themselves. Those fleeting, honest expressions they will soon outgrow.
This is a chapter worth documenting.

FAQs
When will we see our portraits?
We believe the creative process should be a shared experience. To ensure we are capturing the spirit you know so well, we tether our camera to a studio monitor during the session. This allows you to follow along in real-time.
The Delivery: Your portraits will be delivered via a private digital gallery within one week.
What about siblings?
Each additional sibling is invited into the studio for their own individual session.
Following the individual sessions, we are happy to spend a few moments capturing the connection between siblings.
What if I want the portraits in color as well?
Because our color processing requires a completely different approach to light and skin-tone refinement, a Color Gallery is an additional $150.
Can we do this at our home instead of your studio?
We are happy to transform a small corner of your home into a studio for an In-Home Studio fee of $350.
This is an ideal option for families who prefer the comfort and privacy of their own space.
What is the moving portrait?
We offer a Cinematic Archive Film as a session add-on for $150.
Captured in a nostalgic, Super 8 style, these films prioritize grain, light, and motion over digital perfection. The result is a dreamlike, moving portrait that feels like a discovered family heirloom.
