What imagery does the phrase 'portrait photography' conjure up for you? Successful portraiture invites the viewer to connect with the subject in an intimate, often unique way. Portraits strive to reveal a characteristic of the subject - or the photographer's impression of the characteristic. This show not only introduces the Boulder Portrait Photographers group but also the diversity of portraiture as a genre.
