Portraits in the City

f/1.8 · 1/4000 · ISO 200 · 50mm

Brick, concrete, greenhouses and parking decks. Atlanta makes a surprisingly good studio.

These sessions were about texture: slatted window light at the Heritage Center, a greenhouse at Ponce City Market, an empty parking deck after dark. Same relaxed approach, very different backdrop.

If you want portraits with an urban edge, I know the corners of this city where the light does the work.

Where: Midtown & Old Fourth Ward
Sessions: Portrait, 1 hour
Vibe: Editorial, urban
