American photographer and director working across fashion, portraiture,
surreal imagery, and moving images.

Based in Philadelphia · Working in New York · Available Worldwide

ArtChick® is the creative identity of Kristine Paige, an American photographer and director with more than 20 years of production experience. Her work brings an artist’s perspective to fashion campaigns, beauty editorials, brand lookbooks, and portraits—connecting personal expression with photography and film for commercial commissions.

Working across stills and motion, ArtChick creates images for social, web, and print, alongside an ongoing practice in surreal photography and experimental self-portraiture.

Fashion & Commercial Photography

Photography and video for fashion, apparel, beauty, jewelry, and product brands—from editorial stories and advertising campaigns to lookbooks and e-commerce collections.

Creative direction, photography, and short-form video are tailored to each project’s concept, audience, and production needs. Shoots take place on location or in a studio selected for the work, with availability in Philadelphia, New York, Miami, and beyond.

Surreal Photography & Artist Films

An ongoing exploration of identity, imagination, and constructed realities through original photography, digital compositing, and moving images.

Beginning in 2005, ArtChick developed surreal photographic work using her own images and Photoshop. In 2017–2018, that experimentation expanded into moving self-portraits, using Premiere and After Effects to create multiple versions of herself within a single scene.

These personal projects reveal the authorship behind the commercial practice: conceiving an image, performing for the camera, and shaping the final work through photography, editing, and compositing.

Portraits, Headshots & Personal Branding

Portrait photography for artists, entrepreneurs, performers, and individuals—including business and actor headshots, model portfolios, and personal branding.

Sessions combine a fashion-informed approach with attention to personality, expression, and presence. Optional short-form video extends the portrait into motion for websites, social media, and portfolio presentations.

Studio and on-location sessions are available by appointment.
