Hi everyone!
I’m a wildlife photographer who’s recently decided to explore a different side of photography, and I’m hoping to find a few people who would be interested in helping me build my portrait portfolio!
I’ve always been drawn to photography that feels a little more whimsical and imaginative. I love the idea of creating photographs that feel like they belong in a story, whether that’s something mystical, medieval, fantasy-inspired, or even a little dark and mysterious.
I’m thinking beautiful natural settings, forests, soft lighting, interesting outfits, cosplay, and anything that feels a little out of the ordinary. I’d really love to create photographs that have some personality and tell a story, rather than just traditional portraits.
That being said, you don’t need to have a fancy outfit or a specific theme in mind! You’re welcome to wear absolutely anything you’re comfortable in. We can work together to come up with ideas based on your outfit, interests, and the overall feeling you’d like your photographs to have.
A little about what I’m offering:
I’m looking for three individuals, couples, or small groups who would be interested in a completely free photography session around Edmonton and the surrounding area.
Each session will include 10 individually edited, high-resolution photographs, and we’ll work together beforehand to plan a location and general theme. No modelling experience is needed!
I also want to be upfront about the fact that I’m still learning.
Although I have experience with wildlife photography, photographing people is something I’m only just beginning to explore. I’m comfortable behind a camera, but posing, directing, and bringing these creative ideas together with people is something I’m hoping to improve on.
I’ll be putting as much care and effort into these photographs as I would with any of my wildlife work, and I’ll do my absolute best to provide images that we’re both happy with. I just ask for a little patience and understanding while I find my footing and develop my style.
That’s a big part of why I’m offering these sessions for free. I don’t want anyone to feel like they’re paying for an experienced portrait photographer when I’m still building that experience myself.
I’m really excited to try something new, meet some creative people, and hopefully make some beautiful photographs along the way.
If this sounds like something you’d be interested in, please feel free to comment or send me a message! I’d love to hear a little about you and any ideas you might have.
Thank you! 🤍
