PORTRAIT SESSION: IN-PERSON / REMOTE (VIRTUAL)


Before a portrait session, I like to have a little chat first. Kind of like a vibe check. We talk, we laugh (or complain about whatever), and we see if we actually click. Because for me portraits are about connection. When you feel seen and I feel like I’m seeing you. That’s what’s important to me and when the picture comes alive.

Let's have a chat

If we decide to move forward, I’ll ask for a deposit to hold the session and send you a link. The rest is due on the day of the shoot. Deposits never expire, don’t worry! They’re simply there to support all the behind-the-scenes work, from pre-planning to travel and scheduling, so everything flows smoothly when it’s time to create together.


In-Person 
I’m based between Bahrain and Oman, but I’m available to travel within the region for portrait work. If you’d like me to come to you, let’s figure out how to make that work.

Remote 
Even if we’re oceans apart, we can still create something meaningful together. All you need is your phone and a simple app. I’ll guide the process so you will feel very much at ease. The goal is to create photographs that feel intimate, personal and speak to wherever you are, right now. 

It helps if you have someone you trust nearby to hold the phone, but it’s totally fine if you don’t. We’ll improvise. Sessions usually run about two hours. Payment is made before we begin, though rescheduling is always possible. Pre-payment just helps me with the planning, especially when I’m juggling different time zones.

Feel free to reach out to me directly for details on full portrait session fees for each option.

Looking forward to creating together!
