Core Session Options
1. Studio Session
A professional, clean environment perfect for crisp, controlled lighting and timeless portraits. This is ideal for clients needing professional headshots, executive portraits, or a more polished, high-end image. The studio offers flexibility with set styling, allowing Caitlin to capture a variety of images within the same session. The space includes a white cyclorama, grey backdrop, and lounge area, providing both a blank canvas and opportunities for a more tailored, stylish feel.
2. Workplace Session
This session captures individuals in their work environment, whether it’s an office, a studio, or a location that reflects their craft. This could be an artist in their studio, a CEO in their office, or a business owner in their workspace. The focus here is on showing the subject in context—whether that’s for a professional branding shoot or an authentic “day in the life” shot. The workplace session emphasizes capturing the subject’s environment and what they do in a way that is both professional and relatable.
3. Hired Venue Session
For clients who want a more styled, creative, or environmental feel, the hired venue option offers a location that enhances the aesthetic of the shoot. This could be an art studio, a private home, a cafe, or any setting that adds a distinct atmosphere to the session. This option is ideal for individuals looking for lifestyle or editorial-style images that feel more personalized, but still polished. It’s often used by people looking to elevate their personal brand through beautifully curated spaces.
4. Outdoor Session
This option adds natural elements to the shoot, ideal for clients who want a more relaxed, organic look. Outdoor sessions are often used for fitness instructors, public figures, or anyone wanting to incorporate nature or an open-air environment into their imagery. There are specific guidelines to ensure that the location chosen is suitable for the shoot, with attention to lighting and background to maintain the quality of the images.
