Group Portraits | Kevin Sprouls Creates Memories

I have created many portraits for folks to give as gifts. Today, I’ll share with you a few of these, focussing on couples and group portraits. Commissioning a group portrait from me is a great way to celebrate your loved ones…I created this portrait for an old boyhood friend of mine. He thinks the world of his boys, and was thrilled to see the result. I liked the idea of capturing these youths in their prime and at their peak, like butterflies in amber!This was a couple who were celebrating their union. I enjoyed working with these handsome people. The original photo was this:I had to extract the couple from their surroundings. It wasn’t too tough.Here was a group portrait that took some time to produce. The photo-reference was excellent. Unlike many photos I work from, it required little to no arrangement or revision. It’s always fun to draw young people. Capturing their innocence can be a challenge, of course!Finally, another couple. I’m guessing this was an anniversary gift…The expression and pose of this shot was superb. Working with great photographs makes my job a pleasure!
