Cheri
Multidisciplinary Artist · Creative Director · Film Photographer
Constructing characters, identities, and visual narratives through performance, lens, and light. Available for editorial, commercial, and creative direction collaborations worldwide.
Services
Creative Direction
Strategic visual storytelling for independent collaborators, small studios, and emerging artists. Cheri develops concepts, builds worlds, shapes characters, and defines the visual language of a project — from narrative treatment and mood to final image approval. Every frame serves the story and the future work it makes possible.
Fashion Modeling
Editorial, test, and lookbook work for independent designers, stylists, and image-makers. Cheri brings a performer’s precision to every frame — physicality, expression, and character working in alignment with the visual concept and the story the image is asked to tell.
Commercial Acting
On-camera performance for independent film, branded content, and digital campaigns. Cheri approaches every brief as a dramatic role — researching the tone, inhabiting the character fully, and delivering emotional truth that keeps the work memorable long after first viewing.
Film Photography
Authored portraiture and editorial imagery made on analogue film. Cheri conceives, stages, and often performs within each image — constructing characters, environments, and psychological states that exist only in the frame. Available as sole artist or in close collaboration with photographers, directors, and independent brands.

The Work Behind the Work
Cheri is an emerging multidisciplinary artist, creative director, and film photographer whose practice centres on constructed identity, transformation, and the visual narrative power of the staged image. Her work explores who we perform, who we become, and what a single frame can hold — drawing on the traditions of contemporary art photography, experimental portraiture, and theatrical character work.
Trained in film and screen performance, with a grounding in psychology and applied behavioural study, Cheri brings a director’s intelligence to everything she inhabits or creates. She collaborates closely with photographers, directors, independent brands, and fellow artists — not simply appearing in a brief, but interpreting it, building within it, and developing work that resonates beyond a single shoot or campaign.

What Clients Say
It was an absolute pleasure working with Cheri. She was consistently professional, cooperative, and exceptionally well-prepared for every shoot. Her ability to inhabit a character while also taking direction with ease made the entire process seamless. She brought a rare creative intelligence to each session — contributing ideas that elevated the final results in ways we hadn’t anticipated. Reliable, transformative, and highly talented, she is the kind of collaborator every photographer and creative team hopes to find. I would gladly recommend her and look forward to working with her again.

I have worked with Cheri several times over the past year.
I can unreservedly say that she is a phenomenal model and a true creative partner. She is lovely in both body and spirit, bringing style and grace, and a highly professional attitude to our photo sessions.
Among the things that stand out for me is her ability to understand and feel the mood of a photo session, making significant contributions to the final imagery.
She is always incredibly helpful with posing and acts as a true collaborator, actively helping to craft the mood and depth of the images, while being very, very responsible about scheduling and prompt attendance.
She truly helps to build the images into compelling art.
I highly recommend Cheri to any photographer looking for an incredibly talented, dedicated, and inspiring professional.
— NYPHOTOIMAGE
As a creative director, Cheri brought a clarity of vision and a collaborative generosity that made our whole team better. She understood the narrative we were building and amplified it in every decision she made — costume, posture, gaze. The campaign won awards, and rightly so.
