SENIOR PORTRAIT PORTRAIT SESSIONS AVAILABLE NOW!!!

How Do Wayfarer Senior Portrait Sessions Work?

Once we’ve agreed upon a time and date, we will start with a 1-2 hour photo session in the location(s) of your choice. We are happy to provide you with location ideas and help you determine the best place for your portraits. You are welcome to bring multiple outfit changes. Our sessions are fun and relaxed, and aimed at keeping you comfortable and natural- we’re all about documenting the real you!

After the session we will scour through our photos, find 20-30 of the best of the best, touch them up so they are perfect, and put them on a disc for you! You will have the rights to copy, print, and post these images online. Also included in your package is a print collection, including one 8x10, two 5x7’s, and 16 wallets. These prints come from a professional printer in the states and the quality is fabulous! Additional prints and photo products will be available to purchase a la carte.

What is the Investment?

While photography is a favorite past time, it is our side job. Our teaching responsibilities take priority, so we are only able to take a limited number of portrait sessions during the winter season. We want to encourage you to book your sessions early to give us plenty of time for processing, so we are offering two pricing options.

Early Bird Pricing

If your portrait session takes place by Saturday, December 11th the cost of the package is 1500 Dhs. We only have a limited number of these sessions available! First come, first served.

Last Minute Pricing

If your portrait session takes place after December 11th, the cost of the package is 2000 Dhs.

Who is Wayfarer Studio?

We are Isaac and Jennifer Marshall… ASD elementary teachers with a passion for photography! We’ve been honored to take many of your friends’ senior portraits the last few years, and we’d love to continue with you!

Feeling HOT, HOT, HOT!!!

Sauna-like temperatures have returned to Dubai again. You walk outside and your clothes instantly cling to your body... a clear sign it's time to get the heck outta here! 3 more weeks until we head for cooler climates! Woo hoo!!!
Just had to post one from tonight. It is hard to look stunning when wicked humidity is determined to make you being sticky and sweaty. These two somehow overcame the ungodly heat and looked AMAZING! I, on the other hand, was sweating like a little piggy. Good thing the camera wasn't pointed on me... =)

Thanks for a fantastic evening, Britt and Cass!!!

Long Overdue

Not this sweet little bundle of joy, but my photos of her! Donny and Natasha, sorry it has taken me sooooo long to post these!
Little Jazlyn is 2 months old now and even cuter (if that's possible!) I was actually given the honor of babysitting her for a bit the other night, and I loved it. We had a great time dancing to Jack Johnson together. She is truly a little angel... =)

Mike and Erin

I am so elated Isaac went to the arts conference in Qatar this fall because he met these two amazing people! I knew Mike and Erin must be fabulous, because Isaac came home talking all about them. I couldn't wait to meet them, so I was thrilled when they e-mailed Isaac to say they were coming to Dubai for a visit. Mike and Erin spent last weekend with us, and to put it simply, we just love 'em! It's always exciting to connect on so many levels with a new friend, but for all 4 of us to be so in sync was just awesome! Mike and Erin live and teach art in Kuwait and Mike is the incredibly talented man (with paintbrush in hand) behind Squeaky Sneaks. Seriously, order a pair, you will love them! Mike whipped up a few new sneaks for Isaac, so we took the sweet couple out for a photo session, in exchange. I've had several ideas for photo poses and sites floating around in my head and Mike and Erin were up for whatever we suggested. They were absolutely adorable the entire time and all too willing to smooch for the camera! Mike LOVED it!!! As we later processed the photos, Isaac commented that it was so encouraging to see another young couple where the husband absolutely adores his wife and isn't afraid to show it... awwww=). Turned me into a big pile of lovey-dovey mush right then and there! But truly, this couple has so much love and respect for one another and it shows- not only in person, but in these images.
Mike and Erin, we can't say enough how happy we are that you came and stayed with us in Dubai! We can't wait to hang out with y'all again!!!

After our portrait session we came back to the house and whipped up some tostadas and corn pudding for dinner. The corn pudding was such a hit that I passed on the recipe and Mike and Erin made it back in Kuwait to celebrate Cinco de Mayo! Corn pudding is such an easy dish to make and is a great accompaniment for anything Mexican, or grilled. As Mike would agree, it's even great on its own for breakfast=). I thought I'd share the recipe with our blog readers, because it is oh-so heavenly!!!

Corn Pudding

  • 2 eggs
  • 1 (15.25-ounce) can whole kernel corn, undrained
  • 1 (14.75-ounce) can cream-style corn

Johnsson Family

We could hardly believe our eyes when we stepped into the Johnsson's outrageous lime green living room and gazed upon their vast collection of art and collectibles from around the world. These guys have traveled everywhere- and they brought home some seriously incredible momentos! For two artsy fartsy, travel-loving, souvenir-collecting folks like ourselves, we were in heaven! In an instant we began to dream of the potential collection we could have after a few more years of travel and adventure. Our future home- stocked full of eclectic carvings, paintings, and fascinating relics- flashed before our eyes. Who knows, maybe we'll even have a lime green room... =)
The Johnsson's not only had fantastic decor, they were excellent hosts and made us feel welcome in their home. They even treated us to cold cervezas and guacamole after the shoot! The Johnsson family will be moving on to China this summer, and we are so thrilled that our portraits will be added to their collection as a momento from Dubai!
