Ashley





"It's beauty that captures your attention; personality which captures your heart."* Here is the girl who has captured mine. It took me seven months to get these shots.

I read somewhere that a portrait (painted portrait) is a way an artist can express how they 'see' the individual they are painting. They can express it through color, tone, expression, and in what way the person in the portrait is portrayed. With a lens, it gets tougher; capturing someones personality, someones essence, but these photos do reveal how I see her: soft, inviting, strong, honest, warm, and always beautiful.
