There's a version of you that doesn't come out in daylight.
AFTER DARK gives the character you’ve imagined a world to step into.
THE WORLD OF AFTER DARK
A guided cinematic character portrait experience.
SIX EXCLUSIVE EXPERIENCES. ONE OCTOBER.
SOME IDEAS AREN’T SUPPOSED TO STAY IN YOUR HEAD.
The character you keep imagining. The references you keep saving. The idea you keep calling “too much.”
October makes room for the dramatic, the strange, and the things you want to try simply because you want to.
WHO HAVE YOU WANTED TO BE FOR AN AFTERNOON?
A dark queen. A haunted bride. A character you’ve loved for years. A version of yourself you’ve never shown anyone.
Bring that starting point. I’ll help shape the mood, plan the visual details, and direct the portrait experience around it.
The portraits are yours to remember it by.
THIS IS YOUR AFTER DARK EXPERIENCE.
I. Bring your character into focus.
We start with a creative consultation to discuss your references, wardrobe plans, and the feeling you want the portraits to have. Together, we’ll decide on a direction for your session. You don’t need every detail figured out before we talk.
II. STEP INTO THEIR WORLD.
This is where everything we've planned comes to life. I'll guide you through posing, expression and movement throughout the entire experience so you never have to wonder what to do in front of the camera.
III. Choose your portraits.
After your experience, we'll go through the portraits together and you'll choose the images you want to keep from the story we created.
“He showed professionalism and creativity every step of the way. He provided ideas and had the equipment and set up that was necessary to bring the concept to life. It was very fun and easy to work with him!”
