(ramblings of a portrait photographer)

Your portrait experience should start with these questions:

          Who’s the you that’s hidden inside?

          How do you want to see yourself?

Until you answer those questions, you won’t be able to give yourself permission to be free. You’ll still be hiding, waiting, letting life pass you by.

Portraits are an exercise in self-exploration and self expression.

They are a statement of self care and self love.

They are a testimony of your life and existence, of your lineage.

They tell the story of you, your mother, her mother, and even her mother. Their blood runs through your veins; power and grace, passed down, generation to generation.

Honor that legacy, honor your heritage, your family, your ancestors.

Now ask yourself…

WHO AM I?

HOW DO I WANT TO SEE MYSELF?
