This is a repeated blog post from my new site, Romantic Portraits by Kathleen, that I have started just this week. For all of you that follow the Kathleen Hall Photography blog, please check out the new one. I have only images and posts relating to the Romantic Portraits and how they are changing the way women look at themselves, one woman at a time. If you would like to subscribe, just check the link on this page, enter your email and you will be updated each time a post is made. I hope you enjoy this very new genre of photography!
It all began with my sister…
I had had this idea for a little while about creating portraits of women in a way that they would feel beautiful about themselves again. Treat them extra special and create loving, warm images to show them how beautiful they really are. My sister came to visit and she had lost 90 pounds in the last year. But she was still waiting to “lose a few more” before she went shopping and bought new clothes. We all know how that is. Or, if you are still 17, maybe you don’t. 🙂 But, we went shopping, I took her to my salon, Salon Bella Flora, and they graciously worked her in and did her hair and make up and VIOLA! We created portraits to knock her socks off! New clothes and the ability to see herself in the best light (pun intended!) changed the way she looked at herself. Take a look at some of the sample images below…
