This was quite possibly one of my favorite portrait sessions to date. Ruti found a fantastic little art gallery in the city – the staircase and the detailing that it had was so phenomenal, I wanted to live there! As I mentioned in the sneak peek of these photos, Ruti is a very talented classical pianist, so we got some shots of her playing the piano as well as some portraits. It was also a treat to have a private concert with a classical, professional pianist playing. Have I mentioned that I love my job?
I gravitated to using window light as my main source of light for the portraits because both the setting and Ruti are very elegant, and I think the soft quality of the window light really exemplified the elegance. Besides, I just really love window light.
I hope, dear readers, that you enjoy the photos – there are a lot of them. I couldn’t help it.
These are breathtaking!
I love her nose.
It’s your shots like this that just blow me away, and drive me to learn more and more.
Phenomenal.
Christi – Thank you
Char – I know! She’s so exotic.
Tomas – Oh wow, that is so nice of you. Funny, I look at your film stuff, and it inspires me to learn more about film

BEAUTIFUL job! These portraits are amazing. I think one of the best things about being a photographer is you get to meet so many fantastic people and expand your circle of friends!
I love the one where she is crossing her arms and looking up at the camera. The light and dof are great! Good job.
