Portraiture / The EyeLight Project
My Mission
I have a love for portrait photography, predominantly on film. I love the authenticity of the person and the moment, rather than edited, over-polished or even AI photography. We keep it easy, in simple light and accessible locations, letting the subject tell their story.
The sitting fee is $750.The photos will be added to a sample gallery like this... SAMPLE GALLERY
However, you are not simply paying for your shoot. For every paid portrait session I shoot I donate one to a number of entities specializing in the assistance of people with dementia-based, or cancer based illnesses. Adult day care facilities for example.
You see, I lost both parents at early ages and I saw the financial, emotional and mental strain placed not only on the patient, but the family as well. So your purchase allows me to do a second, for this time a family in a difficult situation.
This is the premise of my EyeLight Project. To photograph loved ones and families, free of charge while there is still light in their eyes.
Goal is 1000 portraits paid and 1000 donated in the next 5 years.
