Where Storytelling Meets Style
Every space holds a story. My work brings it forward — with intention, soul, and a stylist’s eye.
For rooms, brands, and stories ready to be seen in their best light.WHAT I DO / WHO I STYLE
I’m Ariene Bethea — interior and editorial stylist behind Dressing Rooms Interiors Studio. I style spaces, stories, and visual worlds for homeowners, designers, photographers, and brands who want their environments to feel layered, soulful, and culturally rich. Whether we’re refreshing a single room or preparing for a full editorial shoot, my approach is always grounded in beauty, clarity, and intention.
PHOTO SHOOT STYLING
For designers, photographers, and publications who want layered, editorial-ready images with depth, soul, and story.
A beautifully designed room doesn’t automatically photograph beautifully. Photoshoot Styling bridges the gap between lived-in design and compelling visual storytelling. I refine the composition, layer in details, edit out visual noise, and create intentional moments that translate powerfully on camera.
Whether you’re shooting a project for your portfolio, prepping a space for a magazine submission, or capturing brand imagery, I ensure every angle feels warm, cohesive, and ready for publication.
What This Includes:
Pre-shoot consultation
Room editing + spatial refining
Surface styling (books, art, textiles, florals, objects)
Composition adjustments for camera flow
Day-of shoot support to pivot, adjust, and perfect shots
Access to stylist props (optional add-on)
Perfect For:
Interior designers
Photographers
Magazines
Creatives needing styled scenes
EDITORIAL & BRAND STYLING
Visual storytelling for brands, campaigns, and publications.
Every brand has a story — and styling is how we tell it visually. I create layered, soulful scenes that communicate your brand’s personality, aesthetic, and emotional tone. From product styling to art direction for campaigns, I approach every project with a stylist’s eye for detail, mood, and cultural richness.
Whether we’re shooting for a magazine feature, a lifestyle campaign, or assets for social and web, the goal is the same: make your brand unforgettable.
What This Includes:
Creative direction support
Mood concepts + styling direction
Set styling + object curation
Product composition
On-set adjustments + refinement
Coordination with photography team
