Portraiture
'a painting, drawing, photograph, or engraving of a person, esp. one depicting only the face or head and shoulders.
a representation or impression of someone or something in language or on film: the writer builds up a full and fascinating portrait of a community'
My definition
An image to take pride of place in your home or in the office, a captured moment of time, a snapshot of how the subject was then to be remember and viewed now and forever,
Change is ongoing, if you miss the moment it it's gone!
Adults, children, babies, friends, workmates, dogs, cats, horses, other pets or livestock can all be photographed in a unique relaxed manner to achieve a wonderful pictorial representation to last a lifetime.
Why not capture that moment and have a Portrait of yourself, family members, pets or your other animals to capture that moment to cherish for years. Children, babies and pets change day by day and you miss these changes. Why not have a annual portrait session arranged to ensure you have something more tangible than just the memory of their childhood to remember?
As for occasions these could include birthdays, proms, engagements, christnings, wedding anniversaries, or infact any time you have a family or work gathering you would wish to remember.
Portraits can be taken in the relaxed atmosphere of your own home or at a suitable outdoor location.
Portraits can also be of your employees etc for you business paperwork, display boards or web page.
I prefer to use natural light where possible but a portable full studio set up is available to bring to your location (depending on room available)as are suitable portable flash units to enhance your images.
The images can be taken in both formal and informal styles and the results can be in various formats as required

The session can be as formal or informal as you like e.g. posed adults, or family, free-roaming children or animals; or a mix of all. The 4 hour session allows you timeto relax and forget the camera, and to move to more locations.
