Portraits

Portrait photography helps identify who we are, how we see ourselves and how we are seen.

Whatever your reason for having your portrait taken; to decorate your home, for business or personal record, the image should show expression and reflect personality.

Few people are thrilled with the prospect of being photographed. The challenge I enjoy most is to make you feel at ease and comfortable enough to allow me to capture a look that you feel proud to show others. To be honest, I don't really like having my photograph taken, so I can appreciate that it can be difficult. Once I show you your finished portrait, and you are happy with it,  having even enjoyed the experience - then I am happy too - and that's why I love my work!

"Sensitive people, faced with the prospect of a camera portrait, put on a face they think is the one they would like to show the world.........very often what lies beneath the facade is rare and more wonderful than the subject knows or dares to believe". Irving Penn
