A Styled Portrait Session with Ashley and Ericka
This one was different from the start: my first session shooting exactly what I wanted, exactly how I wanted it.
A session built on trust
My friends Ashley and Ericka came on board to make it happen, and having that kind of creative trust made all the difference. Instead of shooting toward a client brief, I got to chase ideas — mixing detailed hand editing, old-school film emulation, and double exposures to see what would happen when I let the process lead.
Why styled sessions matter
I hope to do sessions like this every few months. They’re the ones that push me to grow and remind me why I fell in love with this work in the first place — pure creative play, no rules attached.
If if you’re the kind of client drawn to editorial, hand-crafted imagery over anything cookie-cutter, this is the kind of energy I bring to every session.
Frequently asked questions
What is a styled portrait session?
A styled session is a creative, concept-driven shoot built around a specific look or artistic idea rather than a standard client session — full creative freedom on both styling and editing.
Do you offer film emulation or double-exposure editing?
Yes — I love mixing hand editing, film emulation, and double exposures to give sessions a more editorial, artistic feel.
