Your Life. Your Story. Your Portrait.
What makes some portrait photography so timeless? Why can you look at a photo that was taken years, or even decades ago and not be able to pinpoint when it was taken. Sure, there could be some photographic styles that give it away, but there are ways of ensuring art portraits remain beautiful and timeless. So what are the things that age a photo and how are they avoided so that generations can look at a photo and appreciate it without chiding it for it’s “oldness”.
The reason you don’t like photos taken of you may be because you don’t think you’re photogenic. I’m not about to tell you that it isn’t true, but I will tell you that you (and everyone else) can look great in photos too!
Are you looking for a meaningful or unique gift for your wife to shake things up this year? Every Christmas holiday do thoughts of flowers, chocolates, or jewellery eventually come into your mind as you rack your brain over what to get her? If this sums up your predicament then take a look at 7 gifts that will wow her and decide which would be the best fit for her (because you love her and know who she is)!
Some of the women I meet wonder just what it’s like to be in front of the camera. They ask how artistic we could possibly get and how many different looks might we be able to capture? Lauren (the beautiful lady in all the photos) showed me a exquisite gold and green dress that she owned. I thought it was breathtaking the moment I saw it and with that we spent an afternoon capturing her in as many ways possible. If you want to see all the looks you can pull off with just one dress then get ready to be inspired. I’ve named this series One Dress of Many Frames.
Portrait photography isn’t something women are typically looking for. On the other hand, there are always lots of occasions where women will search for great engagement, wedding, newborn, and family photographers (usually in that order). Some women know that they want to celebrate themselves and a special occasion for a session is never necessary. Want to know the benefits these women see in having their photo taken by a professional photographer? You’ll be able to decide whether artistic portrait photography is something you may have been missing out on! You may even surprise yourself!
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!
If you’re like most people, you’ve contemplated how you’re looked at. This thought quickly snowballs into thinking about your imperfections; all of the negative thoughts that would go through their mind. You probably don’t think of the negative things. I’d like to share why you shouldn’t worry about what people think because the ones that matter in your life aren’t seeing what you see (or think you see).
