Leibovitz vs Kanye | A Portrait Photographer's View

The assumption from the average person is that a photographer is a photographer and that means that they of course wear every hat. That's exactly like expecting your podiatrist to perform open heart surgery. We choose our specialties based on what we are drawn to and what we are good at. Don’t expect good portrait photographers to be good event photographers or even want to, and vice versa. Maybe Leibovitz didn't confirm because her heart wasn't in it.

LA Fine Art Nude Professional Photographer on TV show

Well, you know, I have been California fine art nude photographer. I have already been photographing women to transform them as well as to lift their forms as well as translate them into art work.

Enter TradioV's Artful Undress which is a radio/tv show that is live hosted by two extremely gifted women known as Kira and Polina. They introduced me on the program to talk about my fine art nude photos as well as my own perspective of nude art. But I failed to expect subsequently was that I would definitely shape this unique relationship with these two artists I adore as well as appreciate. Tomorrow will be the 4th opportunity that I will have been on with them now since the beginning and every time gets better and better. The Artful Undress is all about with cerebrally expressed freedom of expression. All of us go over a number of topics usually with the underlying subject of sexuality in the arts and now Saturday we'll talk about assault towards females.

Exactly what is the thinking of our planet regarding gender plus nude art and what does this cause violence against women? You comprehend the hot debate... will it make a difference what women wear?

The women from The Artful Undress are always so great at delivering a positive as well as uplifting message and i'm delighted to be on the radio tv show again and to listen to what both of these educated people have to say regarding such an notable topic that affects everybody. I most certainly have my own opinion therefore kindly check it out.

Check out the program real-time from LA Saturday, 6/6/2014 at 5PM PST on the TradioV website at: http://tradiov.com/la/videoscategory/artfulundress/

Tricks of a Baby Photographer | Baby Quote

I am a long time baby photographer and I have literally photographed thousands of little ones. How do I get those amazing baby photographs every time? A little trick is I make sure to keep my studio extra warm and I always let parents know to be flexible on the portrait session day. Sometimes your new baby will need to eat a bit extra or sleep a little more. By being flexible and letting your photographer work their magic you are bound to have a sucessful baby session.

This sweet baby quote was created to inspire others so please feel free to share. For more inspiring baby photography visit the Linnea Lenkus Los Angeles photographer website at:http://linnealenkus.com/ and for more inspiring memes and quotes visit:http://linnealenkus.com/inspiration/.

 

 

Beware of New Photographers | Fine Art Portrait Photography

No matter where you are these days it seems as though you will find someone taking a picture with their phone or digital camera and every new mom and Uncle Joe are calling themselves photographers. Now I’d hate to burst your bubble if this sounds like you but just because you have toyed with a fancy camera or have taken a few great pictures with an iPhone this doesn’t make you a professional photographer. Unfortunately, thanks to technology today and social media we are used to seeing a bunch of mediocre images every day and the world is being taught that this is what photography looks like now. This just isn’t true!
