Our Style
-R.Raven Photography
Put simply, we have a true love for people, and so believe that a great portrait happens from the inside out. To [R.Raven Photography], the most beneficial element in obtaining the very best portraits is without a doubt being able to establish a sincere connection to you as an individual. Even before the active photographic process begins, we take many extra steps toward finding out your hidden artistic desires and acknowledging the comfort zone that will best represent your characteristics and personal style.
To R.Raven, portraiture is a Fine Art Service, one that requires strong technical skill as well as creativity. We maintain a workflow that is not contrived or unnatural; clicking away in moments where true feelings and emotions shine through, for that magical energy is the essence of portraiture. [R.Raven Photography] was founded on the belief that a portrait should, above all, capture the spirit, evoke emotion, and stir the heart. You will find yourself engaged in conversation, as we remain well-aware of your best expressions, capturing them as one would read a story.
Our preferences include the use of mostly natural and available light, as we push the limits and break many standard rules. We shoot into the light. We are eager to work on cloudy, overcast days, and have even worked in rainy conditions. We aren’t afraid of the dark, or of dingy conditions. We like a mixture of urban and classic, contemporary and simplistic, ethereal and rustic. We don’t necessarily seek out the ‘classic smile’, the ‘perfectly centered image’, the ‘perfect pose’.
Please consider this information carefully prior to your session. We do not attempt to get traditional results, and if you are used to a particular style our services may not be the right choice for you.
