PORTRAITS

YOU ARE CELEBRATING YOURSELF.
I’M SO GLAD YOU’RE HERE.

The reasons can be varied and fun: You are in search of fresh and hip social media content for your small business, you are an entrepreneur, you are an artist, you are rebranding, you have a musical band and need cool portraits for marketing purposes, you have a new look and that deserves to be captured. You like the unconventional, you have an eye for aesthetics and you believe in the power of imagery. 

You are here because you are looking for beautiful portraits of yourself.

INSPIRING. IMPACTFUL. MEMORABLE.

"I was first drawn to Iris' portraits, because they all had a sense of magic, boldness, and color that I hadn't seen in local photographers. I knew that I wanted to work with her for the marketing project of my single "I'm Blue". Iris not only helped me find my visual look/branding as an artist, she also brought out the magic in me just as she has done with all her clients. These photos still continue to be the first to be chosen by publicity teams for shows, festivals and press even though they were photographed back in 2018.”

“Iris has this way of capturing you as you truly are. If you have ever wanted to be seen, not just for your good angles, but for your soul shining through, Iris is a master of this. She is also simply lovely to be around, making photoshoots that could be awkward feel pleasant and creative. Iris is the kind of photographer you just want to keep shooting with over and over again. She's an absolute gem.” 

STACEY CAPSTICK 

“It gives me so much joy to frequently recommend Iris for a diversity of photographic projects. I fell in love with her photos several years ago, and have since worked with her in both a curator capacity and as one of her personal photography clients. Her aesthetic is always captivatingly sharp. But most importantly, her photographic praxis and the creative product effectively represent the client’s needs and narratives."

SONIA MEDEL

“Shooting with Iris is for certain an experience to remember eternally. I loved that I felt very comfortable with Iris during our session together. Her presence was calm, I found her to be really relatable and her voice is super gentle. And there’s that surreal feel of the pictures after she adds her editorial touch to them. The portraits she took of me are the loveliest photos I have."

ADELE NKORANYI 

“I cannot recommend Iris highly enough. I have worked with her on creative, personal and professional photography projects. With each collaboration Iris made me feel seen, and empowered in fulfilling my vision, whilst also bringing her own artistic expertise, unique flair and keen eye for visual esthetics. It’s easy to feel awkward in front of the camera, but Iris creates the ideal low-pressure atmosphere to strike a pose and let your personality shine through.”
