A family portrait day at Arbor Terrace South Forsyth
Hosted for the families of Arbor Terrace South Forsyth
portrait day
Saturday, July 18
15-minute sessions · Limited availability
WHAT this is
A professional family portrait, right here at Arbor Terrace South Forsyth.
On July 18, I'll be setting up a professional portrait studio right inside Arbor Terrace South Fulton. Your family comes in, we spend 15 minutes together and you walk away with the option to purchase a professionally retouched portrait you'll keep for the rest of your lives.
No travel. No scheduling around a studio across town. Just your family, your loved one, and a portrait captures the moment while you have it.
"Three years ago my mother passed away while she was living in memory care. I never thought to get a real professional family portrait with her while I had the chance. That's why I created this opportunity."
- Ric Mershon, Photographer

Yes. Your portrait session is complimentary as part of this pilot program. There's nothing to pay at booking and nothing due on the day. After your session, you'll receive a link to a private gallery, and you can purchase digital files or professional prints if you'd like, but there's no obligation.

How Long is the session?
Each family get a 15-minute slot, and we keep to the schedule so no one waits. It's enough time to capture several good frames, more than enough for a portrait you'll love.
