Studio portrait of Isabelle


Studio portrait of Isabelle taken at my studio at RAF Bentwaters near Woodbridge.

What we were going for with this shoot was a classical look very similar to the Dutch Masters and the Vermeer and Rembrandt.

If you are interested in having your portrait taken don’t hesitate to get in touch with me.
