For a long time I have been in awe by the art captured by Jerry Ghionis. If you don't know who he is, I encourage you to google him. This year, I had the privilege of attending a free seminar that he did in Denver. It was amazing! He spoke about the fact that as photographer's we are not always able to photograph in the most beautiful places for some of our shots and what we can do to overcome this. My version of his seminar has been tight places-great photos. I should mention that by not being able to photograph in the most beautiful places, what we are talking about here, is that we can't take photos of the bride putting her makeup on outside with the beautiful Rocky Mountain range in the background. So, in other words, just ordinary spaces that we can make extraordinary.
In chatting with my friend Lori with Lori K Photography, she mentioned Sue Bryce. If you have known me for a while, you know how much I love boudoir photography. I love being able to give a woman a photo and for her response to be "Wow". I don't think that as women we give ourselves enough time or even permission to look in the mirror and stare deep into the eyes of a truly beautiful woman. If you haven't seen Sue Bryce's photos, look her up as well. She really does a phenomenal job of bringing out a woman's inner beauty and true self with timeless portraiture. I have been so inspired by her that I even worked on doing a light set up similar to hers, which is why the above photos look as good as they do. They were also taken in an ordinary space, but the outcome is great. For my curious followers, the photos were taken in my dining room.
Hope you enjoy!
