For the longest time I was focused on portraits with black backdrops. I love how the black contrasts with the face to make it the central focus of the image. I still like to use it with natural light.

Now that I have the studio and strobe lights I find myself focused on white backdrops. I especially love it's brightness for children's portraits. Whether they are wearing white or bright colors children shine on the white backdrop! It is a very popular timeless style of portrait photography. I try to put a little modern twist on it with fun interactive shots but many clients end up purchasing the traditional poses for their wall portraits. It's all a matter of taste! Here are some of my samples!
