Environmental Portraits

A portrait can be many things to many people. For me, a portrait needs to include the environment, for a person's surroundings speak worlds of information about the sitter. Using my 5x7 inch wooden Kodak ensures that every inch of the surroundings will be in focus; and stopping down to f45 and opening the shutter for several seconds or even minutes means that the sitter is likely to be a bit soft. For me, the softness allows the inner person to be seen, a vision of the ageless spirit we all have inside us.
