Thank you for visiting.
Portraits by Koos is the portrait studio of Koos Ellis, located in Port Orchard, Washington. My specialties are creative infant portraiture and scenic outdoor family portraits embellished with a fine, hand painted finish.
"My passion as a photographer and artist is to capture that fleeting moment in time for each and every one of my clients in an exquisite work of art that perfectly expresses who they are and what is most meaningful to them." -Koos
The beauty of your little one's childhood innocence. The people who are most important to you. Special times in your life. Your family may be reuniting or a loved one may be going away. Children leave the nest. One era ends and a new one begins. Let's create a portrait that expresses your love and the connections that give your life meaning!
Thoughtfully designed portraits of your pregnancy, your new baby, your family reunion, or your multi-generations will help you cherish these beautiful memories for the rest of your life. The time is now. Whether you are celebrating your high school seniors or your senior citizens, I would welcome the opportunity to make your vision a reality.
"Photography is a way of feeling, of touching, of loving. What you have caught on film is captured forever... it remembers little things, long after you have forgotten everything."
-Aaron Siskind
