My studio is based in Vancouver, Canada.
If you travel by car, there is plenty of street parking available.
Once you arrive – give me a call and I will come out to receive you.

Images taken in photographic sessions may be used by me for display or marketing purposes.

This could include social media (Instagram and Facebook studio pages), marketing literature (styling and session guides) or galleries on the website to promote my style of photography to the future viewers. By accepting the invitation for a photoshoot, you agree to those terms and for me to use the images in the ways stated above. On the day of the shoot I will have a model release form for you to sign.

Under the Copyright Act of 1985, I retain the copyright of all images taken. You are not allowed to copy, screen grab, scan or reproduce photographs without written consent from Gina Russi Portrait Photography. There is no third party involved.

As a professional, it is important for me to be able to offer you the best experience possible, to show you my skills as well as beautiful final products you can choose from after your photoshoot. As I grow and develop my skills as a photographer, artist and a business owner, my goal it that my samples reflect that journey. At present, I am creating new studio products and this model call is for me to produce wall art samples (framed prints and acrylics) as well as folio boxes or heirloom albums you can keep for generations to come or gift to your dear ones.

When you come, on the day of your photoshoot, we will go through the inspirations again, the dresses we collected, and decide on the few best options. After styling the hair and applying the makeup, we will have up to three hours of creative time. As every person is different and has different needs, we will try to achieve three different looks but it can vary dependent on the flow of the shoot. We will have breaks to refresh, and change outfits.

After I take all the beautiful portraits of you, I will then select the best images and edit them carefully in my signature fine art style. In about two to three weeks, you will be invited back for your reveal appointment. I will prepare only the very best images from the shoot and you will have a chance to view those images and select your favourites. Then I will send the images that you have chosen to be printed.
