passion projects

From time to time, I offer creative portrait sessions at a reduced rate – these are completely shaped by my inspiration boards, styling, and direction. It’s a space for me to bring personal concepts to life, try out new techniques, and create something bold, expressive, and a little different from my usual work, or to expand my portfolio.

If you’re open to being photographed in a more experimental or artistic way, and you’re happy to let me lead the creative direction, I’d love to hear from you. These sessions are ideal for anyone who wants to be part of a personal project and is comfortable handing over the reins creatively.

If you see any inspiration boards on here that you love, get in touch to book in for a creative session!

I’m based in Stratford-upon-Avon and shoot across Warwickshire and the Cotswolds. Creative sessions are limited and offered a few times per year depending on my current projects. See below for some FAQ’s!

  • These sessions are all about bringing my artistic ideas to life. I lead the creative direction – from concept and styling to location and overall mood. It’s a chance to explore more experimental or expressive photography outside of client-led work.

  • Because these are passion projects, they’re offered at a reduced rate compared to my usual sessions. Prices vary depending on the concept and time involved, but I’ll always be upfront about any costs when you apply to take part!

  • Yes – since these shoots are part of my personal work, I usually share them on my website, social media and portfolio. They are at a reduced rate as I am expanding my portfolio.

  • Not at all! Most people I work with aren’t models – you just need to be open-minded, comfortable being photographed, and happy for me to lead creatively.

  • If I have any creative shoots available, the inspiration boards will be on this page. If not, keep an eye on this page or my Instagram (@annabellehalephoto) for open calls. You can also send me a message if you’re keen and want to be considered for future concepts.

Get in touch.

I offer a limited number of reduced-rate creative shoots throughout the year, where I direct everything from concept to styling. If you’re open to being part of something artistic and a little different, I’d love to hear from you.
