Maine Portrait Photographer | Kim in the Snow

In the photography industry, the focus always seems to be focused on more–  More makeup, more complicated poses, more details, and complicated editing processes.  While all of these things have their place in my business, I always find myself going back toward timeless, clean, and evocative photography that is beautiful.  And, by focusing on less and on simplifying the portraiture process, I really believe I’m creating stronger, more personal work that is true to who I am.

Kim, a lovely muse of mine, was open to shooting in the snow, so we trudged out to a nearby field to take some simple portraits.  Although it’s not the easiest conditions to model or pose in, lightly falling snow really enhances the mood of a photo and now I’m crossing my fingers for falling snow for all of my upcoming winter portraits!  I love pops of color against snow, and Kim’s red and mint blazers did not disappoint.

Here are a few of my favorite images from our time together.
