Because of the quarantines currently sweeping the country and world creatives have had to get especially creative to make collaborative art in spite of distance. I’ve seen photographers shooting portraits of people from the sidewalk and through windows. I’ve also seen photographers shooting via conferencing apps. I, too, recently conducted my own remote portrait sessions, which I’ve decided to call Remotraits. After exploring a range of different techniques I found a sweet spot when I began shooting through different substances and materials (a technique I’ve been exploring in my Strata series this past year). The resulting images look exactly how they would had the subject been standing in my studio.

So I’ve decided to start conducting mini sessions via FaceTime or Zoom. For more info or to book a session, head over to https://www.nickfancher.com/remotrait-sessions/remotraits To see how I conduct the shoots see a preview here:
