The Hidden Life of Subjects

Posted byKevin NeilsonPosted inHeadshots, PortraitsTags:, , ,

My camera is like a magical optic. It helps me notice things I might otherwise miss. 

One of the unexpected joys of portrait photography is discovering depths below the surface.

On a recent outing, I photographed Mac Bohannon, an investor at XYZ Venture Capital. 

As often happens when the aperture is open, surface gives way to deep, abiding interests. 

Mac loves all things payments and even has a cat named The Federal Reserve, which just rolls off the tongue. She read Titan, a biography of John D. Rockefeller, with great enjoyment. Mac is an open-water swimmer at the Dolphin Club and sings a moving rendition of Riptide on the uke.

Like I said, magic.
