Two concepts. An evening built around dramatic light, transformation and a little beautiful destruction.We’ll begin in the light with a rich, gold Renaissance-inspired look featuring ornate textures, a gilded crown and subtle hints of thorns. This portion will focus on playful, experimental lighting techniques, creating images that feel warm, regal and slightly surreal.Then, we’ll strip away the polished exterior.As Storm removes the outer vest, the lighting and energy will shift into something darker, moodier and more intimate. Roses and twisting thorns will take over the frame, transforming our gilded prince into something raw, romantic and beautifully undone.This workshop is open to photographers, videographers and content creators of all experience levels. There will be no additional model signups. Storm will be our sole featured model for both concepts.📅September 15, 2026⏰Time: 6:00-8:00 PM📍Location: anticipated to be New Wave Studio👑Featured model: StormCreator spots will be limitedCREDITSStyling & Set Design: Sloane Simmons (@sloane.shots)HMUA: Natalie Portland (@natalie_portland)Concept & Model: Storm (@strmx.mov)Produced by Capture Collective (@capturecollectivepnw)Studio: New Wave Studio (@newwavestudiopdx)IMPORTANT NOTES• Please arrive on time; we’ll begin promptly to maximize shooting time• Respect for all creatives is required; this is a safe, inclusive space• Do not touch models or equipment without permissionWHY CAPTURE COLLECTIVEWe’re not just a meet, we’re an experience.Capture Collective PNW is known for intentional structure, curated sets, and a supportive creative environment that helps everyone walk away with work they’re proud of. https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events4/banners/9cf146b0-a9ec-11f1-ad57-411ed296ae31-rimg-w592-h740-dc883818-gmir.jpg https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events1/banners/9d045980-a9ec-11f1-ad57-411ed296ae31-rimg-w592-h740-dc180808-gmir.jpg - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/portland/the-gilded-thorn-portrait-meet/100001998255084750 - **Event Categories**: fitness, Workshops, Art, Photography, Entertainment, Theatre, performances, Sports - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 - **Event Highlights**: - door_time: 2026-09-16T00:45:00Z - Duration: 2 hours - Location: New Wave Studio - Languages: English ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 50, max: 50, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Portland - **state**: OR - **country**: United States - **location**: New Wave Studio - **lat**: 45.51532859999999 - **long**: -122.6656452 - **full address**: New Wave Studio, 1028 Southeast Water Avenue, Portland, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: "The Gilded Thorn" Portrait Meet - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events8/banners/c8ff1b9914acfa7284ba20f62cb86e735dc1efda68711335e4f0647e59fabda7-rimg-w1200-h600-dcb84838-gmir.jpg?v=1787237172 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is "The Gilded Thorn" Portrait Meet being held? - **A:** "The Gilded Thorn" Portrait Meet takes place on Tue, 15 Sep, 2026 at 06:00 pm to Tue, 15 Sep, 2026 at 08:00 pm at New Wave Studio, 1028 Southeast Water Avenue, Portland, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing "The Gilded Thorn" Portrait Meet? - **A:** "The Gilded Thorn" Portrait Meet is organized by Capture Collective PNW. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
