Portraits with Strangers..
Portraits With Strangers...
For the last seven years I have randomly set up portrait studios around the city of Orlando and created a space for people to get both film and digital portraits! It’s been one of my favorite things as a photographer as it has opened up more doors and allowed me to meet more people in the city than I could have ever imagined.
Recently, I popped up at an event called "Collective Echo". Collective Echo proudly supports LGBTQ+, goth and alternative communities in Orlando, FL. Together they created such a wonderful evening filled with face painting, sound bath, drag, tarot, readings and a million other healing modalities.
At one point, a couple got a Polaroid portrait, and after seeing their prints, I said, "This might be weird, but are you free this Friday morning? I've got some studio time and I'd love to photograph you!"
I knew without a doubt they would be incredible people to photograph!!
They said, "We are free and would love that!!"
Flash forward a few days, I met them at “Orlando Rental Studios” and we went to work!! We had 2 hours together, set up a handful of different color backdrops and made all the different images we could!!
They were both so fun to photograph and so uniquely themselves!!
Below are some of my favorite images from the session!!
