Een authentiek fotoportret laten maken

“Lucy Besson is an incredible artist, and a photographer who knows how to capture the slightest undertones and vibrations of the human soul. In Lucy’s work, a delicate touch—sensitivity towards the human, the emotional—coexists with a classical preference for harmonious form and proportion, an academic approach to the creation of the image, pictorial space and color combinations. Although she could easily be seen as continuing the tradition of portrait painting dating back to the Dutch Old Masters and the golden age of the genre, with her contemporary vision Besson brings to it a breath of fresh air. A feature that becomes more pronounced in her later works is Besson respect of the model’s natural stance, the fact that she never corrects their pose, attitude or position of hands. These people are interesting. You look at them for a long time, trying to figure them out using these non-verbal signs. They always look at the viewer. The ‘eye contact’ is of special importance to the artist. ‘The eyes are the most important element,’ Lucy says. ‘They are the center of one’s individual energy. Only through the eyes can one reach out and touch the human soul!’”
