Creating a legacy through photography is a powerful tool for preserving memories and honoring loved ones who have passed away. Recently, a client approached me with a request to isolate a family member from group photos taken a year prior. Unfortunately, separating the individual from the group photo resulted in an image that was less than our usual quality of work, I elected to create a digital painting using the isolated version of the individual as a reference instead.
With the family’s approval, I set to work, carefully crafting an image that captured the essence of their loved one. The result was a beautiful digital painting that the family was able to print and give to their mother for Mother’s Day, providing a lasting memory of their brother.
This experience reinforced my belief in the importance of healing through photography, whether it’s capturing memories or honoring loved ones. It’s a powerful tool that can provide comfort and peace in times of grief, and it’s an honor to be able to provide that for my clients.
