Models • Women • Actors • Professionals • Artists • Creatives • Designers • HMU • Stylists
Let's create something that lingers.
Some of the most meaningful work I've created has come through collaboration.
A photographer may create the image, but exceptional work rarely happens alone. It happens when different creative minds bring their skills, ideas, perspectives and energy together.
As Lingering IMAGE establishes its creative community in Kingston, I'm looking to connect with both creative professionals and everyday people who have a story, personality or vision they'd like to bring in front of the camera.
You don't have to be a professional model.
You don't have to have years of experience.
You might be a woman wanting to create a portrait that finally feels like you. A professional building a personal brand. An actor developing a portfolio. An artist expressing your work. A designer creating an editorial concept. Or simply someone who's always wanted to experience a creative portrait session.
If you have something you want to express, there's a place for you here.
PORTRAITS FOR EVERY SIDE OF YOU
Creative photography should leave room for possibility.
Some collaborations are classic and timeless.
Others are glamorous, editorial, cinematic, dramatic, intimate or completely unconventional.
Sometimes we begin with a fully developed concept.
Sometimes we begin with a location, a wardrobe idea, a mood, a face or simply a feeling.
Then we see where the collaboration takes us.
Your story. Your creativity. Your contribution.
Together, we create something none of us could have created alone.
WHO I'M LOOKING TO COLLABORATE WITH
WOMEN & PERSONAL PORTRAITS
I'm particularly interested in meeting women who want to explore portraiture beyond the traditional headshot or family photograph.
You might be:
• Building confidence
• Celebrating a milestone
• Entering a new chapter of life
• Reconnecting with yourself
• Exploring a different side of your personality
• Wanting to create something just for yourself
• Interested in glamour or editorial portraiture
• Curious about a more intimate or expressive portrait experience
You don't need to consider yourself a model.
You simply need to be willing to step in front of the camera and see what we can create together.
This is especially important to me because I want the photographs I create to reflect real women and real stories, not only professional models.
MODELS
Experienced models and emerging talent are always welcome.
If you're building your portfolio, experimenting with a new look or interested in developing creative concepts, I'd love to hear from you.
I'm particularly interested in people who bring personality, expression and individuality to the camera.
DESIGNERS
Fashion designers, jewelry designers, accessory designers and emerging brands are invited to collaborate on editorial and concept-driven projects.
Let's create imagery that doesn't simply show what you've made.
Let's create a visual world around it.
STYLISTS & WARDROBE CREATIVES
Fashion stylists, wardrobe designers and creatives with a strong eye for clothing and visual storytelling are always welcome.
Bring the wardrobe.
Bring the mood board.
Bring the unexpected.
We'll build the visual story together.
MAKEUP & HAIR ARTISTS
HMU • MAKEUP • HAIR
Have a beauty concept you've been wanting to photograph?
A beauty look, editorial treatment, dramatic transformation or creative hair concept?
Let's build the shoot around it.
Your work becomes part of the visual story, and you receive professional imagery for your own portfolio and promotion.
ACTORS & PERFORMERS
Actors, dancers, musicians and performers bring something special to portraiture: character.
If you're building a portfolio, developing character imagery or simply want photographs that communicate more than a traditional headshot, let's create something with depth and personality.
ARTISTS & CREATIVES
Painters. Musicians. Dancers. Designers. Makers. Tattoo artists. Content creators. Visual artists.
If what you create is difficult to put into a category, that's probably a good place to start.
Your work, your personality and your creative process can all become part of the photograph.
WHY REAL PEOPLE MATTER
The portfolio I'm building should look like the people I want to photograph.
Professional models are an important part of creative photography.
But they're not the only people I want in front of my camera.
I'm also looking for real women, professionals, entrepreneurs, artists and people from the Kingston community whose personalities and stories reflect the clients I hope to serve.
A woman in her 40s should be able to look at an image and think:
"I could see myself doing that."
A professional should be able to see a branding portrait and think:
"That's how I want to present myself."
A woman entering a new chapter of life should see a portrait and think:
"Maybe it's time I did something like this for myself."
That's the kind of portfolio I want to build.
Not simply photographs of beautiful people.
Photographs that make people see themselves differently.
HOW COLLABORATION WORKS
01 — CONNECT
Tell me about yourself, your work and what you're interested in creating.
02 — CONCEPT
If there's a good fit, we'll discuss the concept, creative team, styling, location and expectations.
03 — PLAN
Everyone involved knows their role before the shoot.
Mood boards, wardrobe, hair, makeup, props and locations can all be developed together.
04 — CREATE
We bring everything together and make the photographs.
I'll direct the photography while making room for everyone else's creative input.
05 — EDIT
I'll carefully select and professionally retouch the strongest images from the session.
06 — SHARE
You'll receive the agreed images and usage rights outlined in our collaboration agreement.
Where appropriate, we can also tag and promote the creative team so everyone benefits from the work.
