How does iris photography work?Using custom equipment, we capture every singular, soulful detail of the eye in a one-on-one setting to create intimate, distinctive works of art across a variety of mediums with a focus on prints suitable for framing. Additional printed products will also be available soon.

How long does an iris photography session take?While each iris photography appointment is slotted for 30 minutes, the actual photography takes less than 10 minutes.

How should I prepare for an iris photography appointment?You can come as you are for an iris photography appointment! There’s no need to dress up, style your hair, or wear (or remove makeup).

This allows us to manage time and resources to deliver the best experience possible.
