Portrait of a young girl circa. unknown.


I like the essence captured in this digital photo (looks like it's taken with a D-SLR). Just finding some influential photo ideas to broaden the way I approach my subject matter. Children portraiture seems like the direction I'll be heading in, how i will take the photos will determine the style I'm seeing to achieve.

Dimensions: 500 x 500 pixels.

Isis playing on the swing circa. 2015.



There's this idea of portraiture that I'm looking at heading towards, this was during summertime so it was the right weather for her to wear one of her beautiful dresses. If taken again with a digital camera, I would focus on aperture and shutter speed to capture her in motion and also in a still position.

~Isis Ofa'Hana Atofia-Krause~ 15/12/13 circa. 2014

Throwing out the net, first image, Isis being playful and enjoying her camera time. One of my favourite photos of her since it captured a moment of the happiness that flows through her everyday, even though she's uluvale (naughty) she displays her innocence in pictures like this. I want to explore her everyday life captured through digital format.
