Jesse

Heretic Photography is an alternative photography brand founded by Jesse Elser and established in 2019. Texas based and available for travel, it creates portraits and visual stories for people, places, and subcultures outside the mainstream. Its work includes expressive portraiture, intimate boudoir, urban exploration photography, tattoo portraits, tattoo convention coverage, adult-oriented fetish and erotica, and experimental creative projects. The portfolio also documents artists, performers, body modification, nightlife, and abandoned places.

Sessions are collaborative and shaped around each client’s ideas, comfort, and personal style. Clients can bring a developed concept or work with the photographer to plan the setting, lighting, wardrobe, and mood. Modeling experience is not required, and clients may bring an adult companion for support. Images from paid sessions are only published with explicit permission.

Heretic Photography offers commissioned sessions and collaborative casting opportunities. Sessions start at $350 for a minimum of one hour; prints, canvases, albums, and other physical products are available separately, with product packages starting at $200.
