Portraiture...

The dictionary defines “portraiture” as
“a record of a certain aspect of a particular human being
as seen by an artist”. The most important attribute of a
good portrait is that it captures some individualism of
the subject. The picture should not merely be a shot of
a pretty girl or an old man but a portrait of that particular
pretty girl or old man and no other person. Portraitists
are first and foremost observers, noting human traits, elements of
character, idiosyncrasies, habits and gestures and singling
out and capturing the individual features of each sitter.

In short, everyone is unique and everyone is beautiful.
And that... is why I love photographing people.
