Portrait

Who are you? Really?

The way you are presented visually can make all the difference.There’s something to be said for posing properly and finding one’s best light; I continually study these techniques. In my photo work I focus on the use of light, form and story to accentuate the uniqueness in each of my clients. Even more, there is an indescribable joy for me as a photographer when a sitter and I are able to get to the authentic self; for this is where the real beauty resides in a soul. This process often requires time and patience.

I find a photoshoot is most successful when there has been adequate planning; the pre-consultation is an essential part of a portrait experience with me. Even so, on the day of the shoot, a bit of warm-up time is usually required. Often there is an initial period of hyper self-consciousness when everyone is just trying to “get it right.” Finally, though, when we all relax, the real magic starts to happen. That’s the time when we become more comfortable in the moment, loosening up, allowing ourselves to experience the joy of just being real and finding your essence. At the end of our photo session together I want you to have discovered a little piece of yourself that you didn’t know existed.
