Relationship Portraiture

A mother's love.

This portrait was inspired by two photographers that I admire, Tim and Beverly Waldon.

I recently attended a seminar where the two of them spoke about what they call "relationship portraiture".  The goal of this style is to bring out emotion by showing a relationship.  In other words, if it where possible to show in a photograph what you feel about a person or how that person has influenced your life, then this is an attempt to express that bond.
