Portraits & Nudes Portfolios
About Our Portraits & Nudes Photography
WHY DO IT & WHO IS IT FOR
We offer our services to private individuals, as well as businesses. We can take beautiful portraits and fine art nudes with a variety of backgrounds and can even create special custom fantasy art for you. If you would like to have your images digitally enhanced by placing you in some fantasy settings and adding other effects it can also be done and if fact we specialize in such effects. These special effects might be particularly good not only for people who like fantasy, surreal style art, but also for alternative health practitioners, spiritual workers, actors, writers, musicians and alike.
Photographs For Private Use:
You might be asking yourself why to have your fine art portrait or nude done. We think the best reason is to have such images for yourself or people who are close to you, so in 10, 20 or even 50 years you or them can look at these pictures and remember who you were and how you looked at this particular time in your life. To us it is somehow magical, like stopping the time for this brief moment.
Such portraits can also commemorate special moments in your life like for example Birthdays, Wedding Anniversaries or any other special occasions. Perhaps you can even start a tradition of having such portraits taken in your Family each year, or every couple of years. For example you can have your parents or grandparents photographed with you and one day, when they will be gone, you can still look at them and enjoy your memories together. If you have children, it would be great to see their progress, how they develop and finally become grown up adults. Or maybe you have pets you really love and would like to have a pictures with them, or have them photographed alone.
You can also have your pictures taken at some difficult time in your life, perhaps when you need more self confidence, to believe in yourself and generally to lift your spirit. You may decide to have it done to have more control over how you will be recalled by you loved one and future generations. One day, when you will be gone, the pictures will be important representation of who you were and how you would like to be remembered in the future.
The pictures we will take for you can also make great gifts. Please see more information about photo session and what we offer below.
