What is a portrait day?

Portrait Day takes place in a photographic studio, where multiple shoots happen one after another. To participate, you can reserve a specific time slot in advance via my website. Each Portrait Day centers around a distinct visual theme, allowing us to craft a portrait that tells your unique story.

Where is the photoshoot taking place?

We will meet in the beautiful studio in the heart of Paris. Located in Montmartre, a stone's throw from the Folies Bergère.

How long is the session?

A standard session is 45 min. You can do one or two looks. One look can be a professional headshot and the second look can be an artistic headshot. If you would like to book more time, please get in touch and I will create a custom session for you.

What should I wear?

Your face should be the focus of the image so avoid wearing items that might be distracting.

I like plain black or a colour that is close to your skin tone. Bring a couple of options if you’d like. Jewellery can add a nice touch.

You can also ignore all of the above and wear something that makes you feel fabulous.

What about hair & makeup?

The goal of the portrait session is to create something that represents you. If you never wear makeup then don’t feel like you need to start now. If you do then, of course, go for it! The most important is that you feel good.

You can also add some more make up (like eyeliner or lipstick) for a few last shots if you want to try a different look. You can put your hair up for some or down. There is a beauty corner in the studio with a mirror and nice lighting.

Can I bring a friend/CHILD/PARTNER?

If you would like to share your session with a friend, go for it! In this case, you will get the individual portraits (one look each) and we can also do some pictures together.

What is included in the session fee?

The session fee covers the time we'll spend shooting, your styling consultation, time editing photos, and 4 high-resolution images. After the session, you will also have an option to purchase an additional collection including a mix of digital and printed products.

Will all the images be black and white?

Black and White is my signature style, but sometimes I get wild and also experiment with blue or earthy tones.

Can I book a session on a different day?

If the next portrait date doesn’t suit you, please sign up for my newsletter (link at the bottom of the page) to be the first to know about the new date.

You can also contact me to schedule a custom session. The custom sessions start at €550.
