Natural Portraits

Considering myself a Landscape photographer, I am always impressed with the skill that goes into and the insight that can come out of a well conceived formal portrait. I occasionally enjoy the challenge of a more naturalistic outdoor portrait. Working with a subject who is relaxed and obviously feeling at home in their everyday world is very rewarding and agreeable. It is this sense of innate unpretentiousness that makes portraits like these a delight.
