The Portrait Session

with Christian Shenouda

Learn about the process of the portrait session here, along with the investment options available too.

Step 1

Let Christian know you’re interested and tell him a little about the subject and your general location. After that…
Step 2

He will complete a complimentary consultation with you to get an idea of your specific concepts. You’ll talk about shooting locations as well as dates before the next step…
Step 3

Now we begin the creation process. Whether it’s one single portrait session with your subject, or multiple shoots that end with a finished concept discussed previously.
Part of the creation process is photo retouching where many days are spent meticulously working on every aspect of the images to create a true work of art. After the creation process…
Step 4

The Viewing Session. Here, we meet again either in person or virtually, to reveal what we’ve created in Step 3. This is usually the first time you’ll have seen everything from step 3 in it’s final format.
Step 5

Here the artwork is passed to our printing partners in the UK, where they hand print, hand varnish, hand make and hand frame the artwork to our exacting standards per your request. They then package the pieces and deliver it with great care to me, here in Santa Monica.
Once we’ve checked all the artwork, we then deliver it right to your door.
