For the love of the portrait

Because I love taking portraits. Because it’s nearly at an end.

Because I will feature what I love:

Friends. Children. People. Happiness.

    Hello Robin!

    Each time I revisit your works, I am astounded.
    You capture texture and feeling as few others have on film.
    Your knack for light and setting are legendary, but your timing! OH to have your timing!
    Nothing but silent and very slow perusal when I introduce someone to your photography.
    Nothing but praise for a master of his art follows.

    Wish I could think of some original compliment that would do your pictures justice, but just have to say the same things everyone else does: Beautiful. You capture so much personality! What’s almost at an end?

      Hi Frieda… I’m taking a bit of a break from both blogging and photography. But I’m sure I’ll be back.

Welcome. I hope you enjoy the visit.
