Natural, impacting, story telling portraiture
Three years ago, in my second year of my photography degree I vowed to never take photographs of people again. After things not working out I took a completely different path.. however, it turns out portraiture is a big passion of mine.. who knew! My portrait photography isn't just photographs of people; its an insight into their world, into who they are and what they love.
