Welcome!
It is with great pleasure TPS Studio has the honor of creating both traditional portraits and high quality art from custom portrait photography during the 2025 Young Marines Ball November 8th, 2025, in the Summit Ballroom. This is where you will have the opportunity to create a special three-image montage of your Young Marine delivered as a specially-textured canvas wrap. Each one is unique unto itself and there is no product out there like it. This three-pose montage of your Young Marine was first designed and created specifically for the Young Marines at the 2016 Birthday Ball, and they have been a permanent offering since.
This art is all hand-crafted. It starts with a four-light professional studio setup, right in the ballroom. And the photography is just the beginning. Each image is enhanced for maximum artistic quality and then it is either blended with a custom mix of textured backgrounds or a single patriotic scene of your choice. We can also take your own idea for your Young Marine, your Young Marine siblings, or your family and make it into something special.
Pricing is strictly based on pre-purchase at the event. Please print this form and bring it with you.
All hand-crafted artwork is done by the artist, John Tobin, so allow approximately 2-3 weeks for completion. All purchased products will be sent to your home address directly.
We accept CASH, Check, Venmo, Zelle, PayPal and Credit Cards.
Note: there is a $30 fee for returned checks.
There are two ways to get involved:
1). By Appointment before the event
2). First-come, first-served after dinner
Appointments are being taken now for between 4:00pm - 5:30pm. Please call asap to secure a time for your Young Marine or family:

Thank you and we look forward to seeing you at the 2025 Young Marines Ball!
Here is an example of the three-image art montage. The sides are 1-1/2" thick and include the image wrapped around the sides. Free name inclusion this year as well.

Custom text is up to you, or you can have no text at all.
Blue lines are not on print but are here to show the additional image area that is added that wraps around the sides of the 1-1/2" Art Canvas.

In addition to a special one-of-a-kind texture, you may choose from patriotic background options made available at the event for any single image portraits.
