Slow portrait sessions offer a unique and personal experience, resulting in a distinctive, nuanced, and organic portrait. These portraits capture more than just physical features, as the nature of these sessions builds anticipation. There is a rare sense of presence in the moment, unlike digital sessions.
The images possess an organic, grainy texture and a unique tonal rendition, adding a timeless quality to the portrait. The process requires patience, as the results are not immediate.
