PORTRAITURE
Portraiture is far more than the art of capturing a person’s physical likeness—it is a profound exploration of their essence. A well-crafted portrait seeks to reveal the layers of a person’s being, going beyond the surface to connect with the rich tapestry of their embodied experience. It captures not only their physical presence but also the emotions, stories, and inner life that make them unique.
In its truest form, portraiture becomes a visual narrative—a way of honoring the interplay between identity and emotion, strength and vulnerability. Each image tells a story that reflects the subject’s journey, the energy they bring to the world, and the quiet beauty found in their unguarded moments. Through this lens, portraiture transcends mere representation, offering a glimpse into the soul and creating a deeply resonant connection between the viewer and the subject.
I have had the pleasure of being photographed by Dana on many occasions- from high school when we met to Yesterday! She had always had the best eye for what makes a great photo and brings out the best in people with her in person work making folks comfortable even if they are camera shy or believe they aren’t photogenic. She produces amazing photos every time and I have been able to use them in my music business to help people see the real me!🌞

My Approach to Portraiture
​
Every portrait session is a collaborative experience designed to celebrate your authentic self. I aim to create a relaxed and safe environment where you can feel at ease, allowing your true essence to shine through. For me, portraiture is about more than just capturing an image—it’s about telling your story. I focus on the unique energy, passion, and emotions that make you who you are, paying attention to the little details that bring your individuality to life.
Together, we’ll create portraits that are not only visually stunning but deeply meaningful—images that reflect the beauty, strength, and authenticity you carry within.
