The Portrait Experience: Fine Art One Of A Kind Custom Portraits or Traditional Photography

Judy Reinford Photography creates heirloom-quality portraits that blend photography, digital artistry, and hand-applied acrylic brushwork. Based in Allentown, Pennsylvania, the studio serves clients throughout the region who value meaningful artwork crafted with intention, skill, and care.

Each custom portrait is printed on canvas and finished by hand, resulting in a one-of-a-kind piece designed to feel timeless and deeply personal. Whether the final artwork features a softly painted background or places the subject within a thoughtfully designed environment, every detail is considered to honor the character and spirit of your companion, past or present.

Looking for a memorial portrait, a meaningful gift, or artwork that captures the personality of a beloved pet or favorite human? Judy works closely with clients to create pieces that feel authentic and lasting, artwork meant to be lived with and cherished.

A portrait with Judy Reinford Photography is not a transaction, it is an experience.

The process begins with a consultation and design discussion, where location, clothing, and artistic direction are thoughtfully planned. The portrait session itself is relaxed and engaging, allowing genuine expression and connection to shape the final images.

Following the session, clients are invited to a review appointment, where the finished images are presented and the studio’s curated selection of professional products is explored together. Guidance is provided every step of the way to ensure the final artwork fits beautifully into your home.

For a seamless finish, delivery and installation services are available, including hand delivery and professional installation when desired. From first conversation to final placement on the wall, the experience is designed to be personal, unhurried, and exceptional. Looking for a pet memorial portrait? A custom gift? A painting that captures your pet or favorite human’s personality? I’d love to help.

Every detail deserves our attention, that is why a portrait session at Judy Reinford Photography is an experience. Consultation/Design is when we discuss the location, clothing, and style of portrait you desire.
The Portrait Session is a fun-filled time that brings subjects and photographer together to create the portrait.

Next is the Review Session where you will enjoy the presentation of the images from your portrait session. Then you will have the opportunity to see all the amazing products handpicked by us as the best in the industry for our clients. We’ll take the time to go over every detail to assist in your final selection.  Delivery/Installation: we can hand deliver your portraits to you and also arrange to have them installed at your home if desired.

Certified Professional Photographer, Lehigh Valley Photographer
Allentown • Bethlehem • Easton

I specialize in work as an equine photographer, pet photographer, mixed media one of a kind paintings. My pet photography is done on location or in studio. As an owner of 7 spoiled Pomeranians, I enjoy working with the unpredictability, high energy and often time challenging task of photographing animals. During Covid I horseback rode a few times a week in North Eastern, PA. My studio in Bath, PA is perfect for spunky little dogs and large regal dogs. We have a commercial studio that is surrounded by beautiful fields sitting on private property. These specialty sessions are all by appointment only. I am one of only a handful of photographers in the area that holds a CPP from PPA. Just like your accountant is a CPA, I am a Certified Professional Photographer. My certification is through Professional Photographers of America. This process takes a year or more to achieve. There is both a written test on technical skills and a difficult image submission process. Even though I hold a BFA, Bachelor of Fine Art degree, I found this an added experience that helped me grow into an even better photographer.

Judy is a wonderful photographer to work with. She has a genuine love of animals, and will treat yours with the upmost dignity and respect, kindness and love that she treats her own during your photo shoot. The quality of her photography exceeds all expectations. You will be nothing but happy when working with Judy.

Judy Reinford is passionate about her art and her subjects. The classes that she taught in Nashville were in depth instruction and hands on for painting of Animals for Fine Art and to take photos of animals and place them on nicer backgrounds. Both classes were expertly guided and explained patiently and thoroughly by Judy. I was so impressed with the process and the art that was created as a result. I cannot wait to apply the techniques taught by Judy to my own fine art. Sincerely, Jill Bergeron

Judy is hands down, the most talented, educated, experienced and productive photographer in the TriState area. She always gets the shot. It isn’t luck. It is her knowledge of technique, coupled with education and familiarity with technology that helps Judy create her stunning images. She is an artist. She got the pictures of my boys that I always created in my head but never could get behind the camera. These pictures are priceless and the artwork will be on my walls for the rest of my life!

I recently had my daughter's senior pictures done by Judy. This was the third time we've gone to her for professional photos and it was another fantastic experience! Judy takes the time to ask questions about her subjects as to gear the shoot and make it more personal, as opposed to having the same set of photos for each person. She takes the time to get to know you personally which sets her aside from many other professionals. She comes highly recommended by our family!!

Judy has a way of capturing those moments that will live on forever. She knows what works and has an unparalleled eye for detail. Just book with her. You will be wondering why you waited so long to create these memories.

It is rare that you come across standout talent like Judy.
I had the pleasure of working with Judy on and off for over eight years now, as a client and as a consultant collaborating on a daily basis on multiple projects.
Above all, I am particularly impressed by Judy’s talent and how she handles even the toughest projects - effortlessly.
Formally trained in the graphic arts and imagery analysis myself, I have seen few people with the eye that Judy has in color correction, saturation, and lighting. Judy's composition and quality finished products are stellar examples of why she is the recipient of international awards and recognition. Those skills seem to come perfectly natural to Judy, which takes years to develop among professional photographers.
Judy earns my highest recommendation as an artist and business owner.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I have had 2 family sessions with Judy and her work is exceptional. She does not simply take pictures, she creates art. As with most professional artists, she provides a product, so do not expect simple digital photos. Her prices are also reflective of her expertise, but she is well worth it! Her planning process is very thorough. She made a home visit to review wardrobe and personal style to provide fully customized photos that fit my home. I recommend her to anyone who wants quality photography!

Judy works with four legged kids and two legged ones with equal deft. She photographed our 6 day old and four dogs and created a family heirloom of a picture. Her eye for the art of photography is amazing and the works of art she creates will be treasured by your family forever. She’s a lot of fun to work with. Her love for animals and people shines through in her photographs.
