Sometimes, the presence of a photographer can make people feel self-conscious and prevent them from fully relaxing and expressing themselves when they are getting their photo taken, and self.space aims to offer a different experience to the people of Dubai as the city's first self-portrait studio.
This private experience removes the photographer and supporting staff entirely, and has people enter a quiet space with a studio-grade camera behind one-way glass, and a remote. At this studio, a session allows for ample time, plus it provides unlimited shots, access to a choice of music, wardrobe and accessories.
Portraits are processed by self.space's AI for a smoothed and refined yet natural look, and ultimately, the portrait gallery is delivered to clients with a secure, password-protected, encrypted link that only they have access to.
