We're going live on Wednesday morning with Pure Country 94 Ashley & Gord!

Strangers Sessions have become more in demand then ever. With the disconnect of dating apps, and over crowded attractions. Taking a step back and enjoying an intimate and fun experience with a like-minded individual in your area.

IT'S GETTING BIGGER

Something we’re working on behind the scenes has us REALLY excited.

STRANGERS started as an idea for our own photography sessions.

But the response has us thinking much bigger.

We’re working toward creating a way for OTHER photographers to host their own STRANGERS sessions and connect with people in their own communities.

Imagine a network of photographers creating unexpected meetings between strangers all over the place.

Different photographers.

Different locations.

Different people.

Same idea:

Give two strangers a reason to meet.

We’re still building it, but this could become something pretty special.

And if you want to be one of the people waiting for your STRANGERS session…

THE RESPONSE

Okay… this is getting REAL. 👀

Over the past few days, we’ve seen a huge increase in people applying for STRANGERS.

People are curious. People are taking a chance. And honestly? We’re loving every second of it.

STRANGERS was created around a pretty simple idea:

What if two people who would have never met… actually met?

No swiping. No awkward messages. No carefully curated first impression.

Just two strangers, a camera, and a little bit of possibility.

And now we’re getting ready to host our FIRST STRANGERS session since officially putting the idea out into the world.

We cannot wait to see what happens.

If you've been thinking about applying, take this as your sign.

You never know who you might meet. ✨

What happens when two complete strangers step in front of the camera together? 📸

A little curiosity, a little chemistry, and a whole lot of fun.

Ashley O'Brien Photography is bringing Stranger Sessions to the Ottawa Valley and Gatineau Hills

I’m looking for adventurous, open-minded people who are interested in meeting someone new and creating a unique photography experience together. Before the session, you’ll fill out a short application so I can learn a little about you, your personality, your interests, and what you’re hoping for from the experience.

Then comes the fun part… I pair you with a stranger who matches the criteria you selected, and we create the session from there. 😉

It's more than just a photo session, too! I prepare you a fun blind date that matches your vibes! 🤩

These sessions are about connection, confidence, spontaneity, and capturing those genuine moments you simply can’t pose.

First time blocking a potential client for attempting to scam me.

I need to remind clients, I only accept E-transfers (from valid banks) or cash upon session. No exceptions. This is for your safety and mine.

Did a super cute and very quick mini sessions with my babysitter who is an aspiring photographer too. Here's a few of her retro inspired portrait.
