Portraits

Lovely Lauren: Hawaii Portrait Photographer

Lauren by far, is one of my favorite people to photograph.

She’s light hearted, endearing, funny, and instantly puts you at ease with her warmth. I created a few portraits of her, just as the sun was setting behind our friend’s house in Calgary, Canada.

“Some painters transform the sun into a yellow spot, others transform a yellow spot into the sun.”

– Pablo Picasso

If I had to choose between the two, I’d say you’re the latter, Lauren.  You take the sunshine with you wherever you go.

See a full session of her from the Spring at https://crystalchanelphotography.com/virginia-play-garden-portraits-wildflowers-meet-lauren-guilford/.

Aloha,

Crystal Chanel
