The Unfolding
An Immersive Portrait Experience like no other
Most portrait sessions aim to capture how you look.
The Unfolding invites you into something deeper.
This is a collaborative art experience designed to reveal the parts of you that are otherwise invisible—what’s shifting inside, what’s emerging, and what’s been waiting to be seen.
Together, we co-create a fine art portrait that reflects your current moment in life—not with polish or pretense, but with honesty, vulnerability, and the beauty of imperfection. It’s based in wabi-sabi, the Japanese aesthetic of transience and transformation.
The Process
The session begins not with a camera, but with a conversation.
You’ll reflect. You’ll write. We’ll make tea.
And only then will we begin the act of making your portrait—through photography, paper, folding, and light. Together we’ll create something layered, tactile, unexpected. Something that only you and I could make.
You’ll leave with more than an image. You’ll leave with a reflection of who you are becoming.
What You Receive
A 90–120 minute in-studio experience in Seattle
A one-of-a-kind fine art portrait on museum-grade paper
A personal video message revealing your final piece
A pencil. With your words. To remind you of what unfolded
This is for you if:
You’re in a moment of transition or transformation
You’re ready to be seen—not just how you appear, but who you are
You want a portrait that feels like art and truth at once
