I love this portrait in so many ways. It speaks to me in a way that makes me understand that “what you see, is what you get”. There’s an organic feeling that pulls you in front of the subject, while you get lost on her deep blue eyes, you can, at the same time, contemplate every single detail around her beauty and the natural light environment that surrounds her.
I was able to get close and personal with the model, a scenario that pretty much disarms the subject and the photographer. This is where an unspoken conversation is happening since both are comfortable with each other, allowing to capture what is clearly a natural setting.
