National Photographic Portrait Prize 2017 Highly Commended
Highly Commended, National Photographic Portrait Prize 2017
I use photography as a means to document the world around me and people in my life. I photograph people in their natural environment because I want to preserve a moment in time. My recent focus has been on portraits that capture mood through light and composition reminiscent of the great artists of the Renaissance period. This image was captured on a traditional film camera.
The exhibition is selected from a national field of entries, reflecting the distinctive vision of Australia's aspiring and professional portrait photographers and the unique nature of their subjects.
Explore portraiture and come face to face with Australian identity, history, culture, creativity and diversity.
