I like how you're talking us through the photographs even while you tell us how you talked the subjects through the taking of them.

Love the focus of the first and the thoughtful warmth of the second. You want to talk to each of the characters to find out more about them. Lovely stuff, Matt

Thank you. I think you make a good point about portraiture: do I feel anything more or want to do anything extra (talk to that person, shun that person etc) after viewing the portrait? Maybe that's part of what makes some pictures of people really resonate.

I’ve been watching your photographic work over the years including the portraits, and they’re all breathtakingly beautiful. These two are no different. You’re an artist.Such talent.

Absolutely love these images & the story behind them.

Your ability to allow your subjects to be at ease, shines out here, as always, dear Matt.

Thank you, Pauline. Take away the pressures of the commission and it's hopefully only ever one person talking to another person holding a camera. x
