Children & Portraits

Children are most candid in their own environment. As both a mother and a photographer I am the woman behind the creation of Lux. Children are best photographed where they feel most comfortable, surrounded by what is most familiar. The child then pays less attention to the camera and instead becomes completely preoccupied with whatever new discovery she has just made. These photographs are the most precious and revealing as they truly reflect the personalities of each child.

This form of photography has a distinctive journalistic style and truly exemplifies the casual beauty of understated elegance. My love of this style, combined with my passion for creativity in children’s photography is the reason for Lux. This is art.

Statement:

My work is a study of color. I enjoy the tension that is created by adding such deliberate and intense color to black and white photography. While the use of solid color takes on an iridescent quality in some images, absence of color in specific areas, allows the photograph itself to appear metallic. The color bathes the images in light.

This style of portraiture is very bold. The use of intense color adds an element of excitement unattainable in traditional portraiture. Color also dictates the mood of the photograph. I want to experiment with the ideologies of femininity and sexuality in the photography. The tension that exists between the color and the image is also seen in the opposing suggestion of both sex appeal as well as sophistication.

Commissions:

I have been commissioned to produce original pieces for women, their children, and even the family pet. Call to schedule.

Any photograph can be made an art card. Because every art card is an original piece of art, the cost for this service is $150.00 plus the cost of printing. Every client has the opportunity to work closely with the artist in choosing both the mood and color story for the final piece.
