Today on The Easel, I have a contemplative photograph with subtle and elemental symbols that show something different each time you look at it. This ballet of shape and pattern occurred during a moment teaching photography on a snowy day on the far side of Chicago: a reason you always carry some form of camera,… Continue reading On the Easel

Set the Tone
A local young bride's wedding photographs are now ready for her home. I was extremely pleased to have two heirloom frames to work with: these images look amazing in antique settings! Another pleasure was in working with a younger person's style of communication and relating. So lovely to meet another who values images that hold… Continue reading Set the Tone

These photos are all we had to recall the vital,… Continue reading Loving the ‘Lovey-Dovey’

I see person after person walk by, deep in their thoughts and phones, unaware they are travelling through a shower of rainbows. Dorothy Perry is a Chicago portrait photographer specializing in custom family portraits, modern headshots,… Continue reading Shower of Power
