Blonde Beauty - PORTRAIT on the Beach

in #portraitphotography7 years ago (edited)

HAPPY WOMEN'S DAY!

I dedicate this post to a beautiful woman I'm happy to call my friend



I love taking photos of landscapes and things I see during my travels.

But if I were to mention a drawback of that type of photography, it would be the fact that inanimate objects or strangers that randomly walked into your frame and made for interesting shots, can't give you some kind of emotional feedback. They just stand there and look pretty.

People, however, can communicate and create a connection with you as you try your best to capture their inner (and outer) beauty in a way it would make them feel confident and happy about themselves.

That's why I enjoy taking portraits.

This is Eden Knight, a singer and song writer with the voice of an angel and the beauty of a goddess. Witty humour and sassiness are her strong points, aside from being a beautiful person, inside and out.

What a beautiful description of the two mediums. The complexity a single person can add to a photo is simply amazing. In seconds the entire feel of the shoot can change. Is like capturing the movement of the ocean.

My thoughts exactly. People can make photos that much more captivating and you can rest assure you will never get two exact same shots. I love it!

So true!!! I am looking to do a photo shoot out in nature. Give changing expression to the backdrop of the seemingly stillness.

Outdoor portrait shoots are the best! Have fun! Looking forward to seeing the final shots :)

I agree with @marysweet. Your description couldn't be more spot on about the duality of subjects in photography.

Good luck in the contest!

Why thank you! Means a lot coming from someone who knows a thing or two about storytelling ;)
