Celestial Bodies
Portrait Session Giveaway
Some people spend their entire lives admiring beauty without ever allowing themselves to exist inside it.
Three celestial worlds. One immersive portrait experience.
We’re giving away the Sun, the Moon, and the Stars!
We’re giving away the Sun, the Moon, and the Stars!
This experience was created for people who are very good at finding reasons to wait.
They tell themselves:
“Maybe someday.”
“When I feel more confident.”
“When I lose weight.”
“When life slows down.”
“When I finally feel comfortable being seen.”
And eventually, years pass with nothing to show for the version of themselves they’ve always quietly wanted to experience.
The woman you're waiting to become has been waiting on you this entire time.
This was created for the people who are tired of waiting to feel worthy of existing inside the art they’ve always been drawn to.
You know you need portraits, but there is always something more practical to do first.
There is always a project, an expense, a responsibility, a schedule conflict, a few pounds to lose, or a better time somewhere on the horizon.
That thing happens when you're thinking about booking with your partner, planning something with your best friend, gathering the family together, or choosing an experience simply because it sounds fun and you've always wanted to do it.
If you've been waiting for the perfect time, you'll probably be able to find another reason to wait.
If you've been looking for a reason to finally do it, this is one.
A limited portrait experience by Obsidian + Blush.
Enter for the chance to receive one of three fine art portrait session prizes inspired by celestial mythology, cosmic lighting, and fashion editorial storytelling.
Designed for couples, close friends, and individuals drawn to immersive imagery, rich atmosphere, and portraits that feel pulled from another universe.
THE SETS:
☀️ The Devoted One:
Represented by The Sun
For the woman who has mistaken responsibility for living.
You are the one everyone depends on.
You celebrate everyone else's milestones while quietly postponing your own.
Your calendar is full of obligations and strangely empty of wonder.
People admire how much you carry.
Very few know what you've been putting down.
The version of you you've been waiting to meet isn't waiting for life to slow down.
She's waiting for you to choose her.
🌙 The Dreamer
Represented by The Moon
For the woman who spent so much time thinking about the right decision that she’s stopped making one.
You're remarkably convincing when talking yourself out of something you wanted yesterday.
You've confused needing more clarity with avoiding a decision.
You are looking for confirmation after you've already made up your mind.
Your imagination is faster than your follow-through.
You are expecting certainty to arrive before experience.
Life has never worked that way.
For the woman that’s collected enough inspiration to start three different lives.
Your saved folder has become a museum of things you thought were beautiful enough to keep, but never important enough to do.
You know exactly what you like. You rarely say yes to it.
You don't hesitate to admire extraordinary things from a distance. Participating has remained optional.
You are waiting for a version of yourself who naturally says yes.
She's waiting for you to stop collecting proof that it's possible...
...and become proof yourself.

WHY THIS PROJECT EXISTS
The Sun, The Moon, and The Stars began as creative concepts.
The reason they became a giveaway was much more personal.
Watch the video to hear the story behind the campaign and the people it was created for.

• A quick 30-minute session in a park
• A gallery of digital images with little interest in the experience itself
