all you need to know about Portrait photography with Luisa Young

Each portrait I create is crafted with intention — a reflection of personality, emotion, and storytelling through light and detail. My work draws inspiration from fashion editorials, cinematic imagery, and timeless portraiture, influenced by natural light, expressive faces, and the quiet confidence of my subjects.

As a professional portrait photographer, I focus on quality over quantity, taking on only a limited number of projects each year to ensure a highly personal and creative experience. My portfolio includes editorial-style photoshoots for models looking to elevate their portfolios, expressive family sessions filled with genuine connection, and heartfelt portraits of pets and their people.

Among my portrait work, you’ll find Vogue Italia–featured photographs, published editorial imagery, and personal storytelling sessions created with families, children, and individuals of all ages. Each session is designed to tell a visual story — elegant, natural, and deeply human.

Whether I’m photographing a model inspired by classic fashion muses, capturing the warmth of a family moment, or creating a soulful portrait of a beloved pet, my goal is always the same: to capture something genuine, artful, and enduring.

Editorial Portraits for Models

My editorial portrait work blends fashion influences with cinematic storytelling to create images that enhance a model’s portfolio. Whether you’re developing your book, needing fresh test shots, or looking to elevate your agency-ready visuals, each session is designed to capture expression, versatility, and presence.

These portraits are crafted with intention, combining refined lighting, thoughtful styling, and a sense of quiet confidence inspired by classic fashion muses.

Lifestyle & family sessions

My lifestyle and family sessions are designed to capture real connection — the quiet, honest moments that make your story uniquely yours. Natural, emotive, and beautifully relaxed, these portraits honour the people (and pets) who mean the most.
