This woman is a disgusting human being that is out for money, please do not make the mistake we did and fall for her preying tactics. She looks for children or military members or “cancer survivors” and acts like you have a credited photo shoot to be featured in her “portfolio”. Once seeing the photos she is charging over $5000 for extremely low quality work and then using pressure tactics and cruelty to bully you into buying these supposed works of art of hers. She needs to be shut down, truly one of the lowest humans I’ve sadly come across that claims to run a business.

Ai editing is incredibly obvious and tells me that these “artists” do not value other artists and would rather sell their subjects likeness to a machine than learn or support someone who can. Do not trust these people with images of your children, they will end up in Grok without clothes.

She works from her own home with the side garage made into a studio. They tell you won child of the month and have a chance for your child of the month to be on their magazine and picture on site . There’s a lot of recordings of what they own on using your child’s pictures. There is no free pictures of your child . They put you in the sales room of the garage and show pictures that costs thousands. One picture of my child was 6 thousand dollars and it wasn’t even to be a painting . It was just a print . She wants to paint a story have she just found her photograph life. She’s cold and didn’t even what here my son story as he was adopted and a survivor

I had a fantastic time with the Castelo Team being photographed for the 40 over 40 Men’s Magazine Project. They are fun , professional and so very talented. I recommend giving them a call and booking a session today.

I absolutely loved Castelo Portrait Art! The staff was friendly, they kept up with the bookings via email and even did a courtesy call to remind me what I needed and the details. The pricing is fair. 10/10 would recommend! I felt beautiful leaving.

What an incredible experience, I was not able to take my eyes off the interaction between Maria and my daughter. There was an obvious flow of creativity that was manifesting in real time. My twelve-year-old dancer enjoyed every angel suggestion, prop introduction, and interactive pose. Prepare to be truly marveled by Maria’s vision and creations. The love for her art is palpable. From the time that we walked in her studio, it was clear that we were her only priority during our session and she was absolutely dedicated to making dreamlike portraits. Her experience, skillfulness and talent were obvious when directing posture changes that created astonishing impacts on the final take. I booked a session to celebrate my daughter's first pointe shoes after seven years of dedicated ballet training. I am beyond delighted with our portrait and feel fortunate to be able to share this gift with my daughter. I walked out of Castelo’s Portrait Art with an Heirloom piece that will journey through time and generations.

This is not a business, it is a scam. After you enter for a chance to "win" a free portrait session, you will be contacted by someone telling you that you have "won". Everyone gets the call, there are no "winners". They will then tell you that they need a $200 "refundable" deposit to book the appointment. Salespeople are instructed to book the first available time, which is within the cancellation period already so you automatically lose $200 for any changes. If you make it to the appointment you will receive a free picture which is called artists choice which will be the worst picture of the batch, after they put you in a sales room and use strong arm bullying tactics to coerce you into spending thousands for this crap. They prey upon the disabled, cancer patients, proud grandmas etc.
