I LOVE this picture of Gracie! It captures her beautifully: the poised and steady goodness of her gaze; the dancing hair; it is just so her! Which is really the very best compliment a photographer can have . . . to somehow capture the essence of the soul they photograph! You have done it! Congratulations.
Is it totally embarrassing, having your Dad commenting on your work? So sorry; can't help it! ;- )
I can't believe I'm doing this . . . but one more comment: As I watch your style develop, I've come to recognize that you honor the eyes as windows into the soul. You have especially captured several children--Kaia, Anna, Gracie--where they look so soft and ephemeral [as childhood itself surely is] . . . but the eyes! Even in Gracie's profile, the eyes are ETERNAL . . . like little universes that have always been and always will be. Knowing, intelligent, powerful. I love this developing style.
You surprise and amaze me, again and again. That's why I love to watch your work!
My name is Nate. I am in love with a few things in life: my wife, taking pictures, the outdoors, summer, and food. I hope you enjoy some of my photography work on this Blog. Feel free to shoot me an email or leave a comment. Thanks!
