Your Life. Your Story. Your Portrait.
We’re always trying to push the envelope of art photography for modern women by experimenting with different looks. Chantal was a great sport and trusted us to create these cinematic, wall-worthy images for her. Now we’re able to confidently create this sort of photography for all the other “everyday” women in the GTA.
If you’ve been with or known someone long enough then you’ve surely had times when you didn’t know what to give them for her birthday, anniversary, Valentine’s Day, graduation, or other achievement/special occasion. She probably doesn’t need you to buy another charm on her bracelet either. If you want to give her a gift that goes beyond the longevity of jewellery and the meaningfulness of a handmade trinket, then give her an experience that will show her how beautiful she is!
This is one of my favourite pieces I created while in New York City. Sometimes the greatest images are born out of chance and sometimes it also just depends on interpretation. Read on to learn what I was looking for, but what I really captured instead. The message I found in this image is profound.
Here at Made by Ten we like to do a little bit of everything. It keeps us on our heels and although we have a distinct style, we aren’t afraid to veer from it to make great images. If you take a look at our inspiration examples in “Women in Art” dropdown you’ll see we have “Modern Portrait”, “Modern Glamour”, and “Modern Boudoir”. While we consider all of our work “modern”, these stand out the most as a departure from “traditional” or what we like to call…”old”. Are these “modern” versions right for you? P.S. It makes a special Valentine’s Day gift!
I took a trip to New York not long ago. I believe it’s the third time I’ve been there. The last time was with my fiancee at the time and my best friend and his wife. I had also taken photos when I was touring the city, but I honestly didn’t have as much control of my camera at the time. Photography is so accessible that sometimes even I (as a professional photographer) forget just how much there is to learn. Unfortunately, the learning part can take quite a while because the best lessons come from mistakes.
From the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) it really isn’t too bad of a drive. With a few washroom and gas-up stops we made it there in good time. Keep reading for even more photos.
It wasn’t easy deciding to be a photographer as a profession. I had a great job working for the government, in a field that I had studied for – civil engineering. In fact, I was well on my way to becoming a Professional Engineer. So why did I quit my job and decide to be a photographer?
