As I was reading through photo blogs this morning, I came across this one concerning fathers and sons. If you’ve followed me for some time, you know I have a fondness for this subject as I had a solo exhibition in November of 2006 featuring fathers. The images from Fraction magazine are wonderful. They are intimate and beautiful and they tell a story. Typically, in a portrait session, my clients want a beautiful portrait of their child. I often struggle with myself because I also want to tell a story. Here’s an image from a recent session that didn’t make the final cut for the client, but oh what a story it tells!
And because pictures that tell a story can also be beautiful.
Just beautiful!
One of my best memories from childhood is being woken up VERY early by my grandmother to walk barefoot in the morning dew to inspect spider webs…
We’ll have our talk sooner or later, won’t we?
