What is a Stranger Session? And how does it work?
Well, this is exactly how it sounds. A couple of strangers in a couples session.
During the session, two single people will pose as a couple.
Initially you will be blindfolded, led to the other person, where you will stand either facing each other or back to back.
While blind folded you introduce yourself by name and age, and a small fact about yourself.
Then I will instruct them to either take off their own or each others blindfolds. as this happens I’ll be there to Capture the raw, real reactions and emotions!
During the next hour the strangers will get to know each other by posing as an actual couple, encouraging conversation I will be prompting different topics (unless of course the conversation just flows!) As they are learning each others likes and dislikes through talking, joking, and following directions and participating in poses, I will be capturing each and every First moment.
Do we have to Kiss the other person?
Short answer... No!
We will be practicing the art of the "near kiss" or "smiling kiss"
You are not expected to do anything you do not feel comfortable doing. At any point if you are asked to do a pose or position or action that you would rather not do, just let the me know and there will be no questions asked! The Idea is to have fun, not to feel pressured into anything at all!
Do we get told anything about the other person before Meeting them?
You will be informed of the other parties age, and Gender. As this is a Blind date you will have no information on their name, physical appearance or employment.
This is completely up to each party to give this information to the other party as they wish.
What happens after the session ends?
This is 100% up to the individual.
Some feel comfortable enough to continue the date, some leave and don't contact each other again, some exchange information. It is completely up to how you feel on the day.
After leaving the location each person will be contacted by me directly, this will be within 24 hours to touch base and get a feel on how you think the Session went.
Then I will let you know a time frame on when and how images will be released.
