The stories of Robert D. Jones Photography
“A portrait is not made in the camera but on either side of it.” – Edward Steichen
Portrait photography is one of the most powerful forms of visual storytelling. Whether it's a candid shot of a loved one, a carefully orchestrated studio session, or a beautifully composed environmental image, a great portrait has the ability to convey emotion, personality, and even the essence of a someone’s life story. More than just snapping a picture, portrait photography requires a unique blend of technical skill, artistic vision, and human connection. As Edward Steichen famously said, "A portrait is not made in the camera but on either side of it.”
