Portrait Photography Chicago | Chicago Portrait Company

Chicago portrait photography is what I enjoy most. I’m born and raised in this city, and I find the people who live here to be the most photogenic people. This is my stepson Bobby, who at 13 is making the transition from boy to man.

Portrait Photography Chicago is the simple name I’ve given this website. It’s a simple name, and this is a simple website. I’ve been making photographs for 20 years and have been sharing them online for 10 years, but most of the websites I’ve shared photos on have been cluttered with lots of bells and whistles. This will be a departure from those pesky distractions. I hope you enjoy your time here. Your comments are welcome.

About this photo - I’ve lately been getting my feet wet with portable lighting. With this photo, I put a flash on a stand to the right of the model. This provided a good balance between the sunlight behind her and the flash in front of her.
