Other Portrait Experiences
The Simply Me portrait experience is our most playful and heartwarming session, designed to capture the pure joy and authentic expressions of kids.
Through a fun and fast-paced process, we’ll create moments of laughter, using silly faces and sounds to encourage natural smiles and unforgettable expressions.
These timeless black-and-white close-up portraits preserve the magic of baby teeth, freckles, and the fleeting moments of childhood.
Originally created as a fundraiser for the Cope Family Center, this experience offers the opportunity to not only capture precious memories but also to give back by donating a session to a child in need through the Cope program.
Women Holding Things is an exclusive photography art project inspired by Maira Kalman’s eponymous book, exploring the complex relationships between women and the objects they hold, literally and figuratively.
Each intimate portrait will capture a moment of quiet strength and vulnerability, where everyday objects become symbols of personal identity and shared experience.
Limited to only 20 women, the project invites participants to reflect on their unique stories while being part of a larger narrative that celebrates resilience, femininity, and the power of holding on.
Set for release in 2025, this experience offers a rare opportunity to witness the intersection of art, identity, and the objects that define us.
