Italy Photography Series

 In 2004, my husband and I took our honeymoon in Italy.  Not only had I taken a huge personal step by getting married, but I had also taken a huge professional step by delving into digital photography for the first time.

 

The images in my Italy Series were thus shot with a romantic vision--the rich and romantic artistic, cultural, and historical  joie de vivre that is inherent in the people, the land, the food, the architecture, and the arts.

 

When I initially took these photographs, it was merely to document our travels and new life as a couple, with no thought as to selling them as a professional artist.  Therefore, all of these images were shot with sharp focus.  I do sell them and have them listed online as sharp, clear photographs.  However, thanks to the flexibility and near limitless possibilities of the digital darkroom, I decided to put this series together again with a new romantic focus.  To do this, I created a softer focus, making them more romantic, more timeless--a bit more vintage.  I've listed this series as  8" x 10" prints on Epson Velvet Fine Art paper, which lends a museum quality vintage look to each print.  Other sizes are available, up to 13" x 19", so please contact me if you prefer a larger size.

 

I will be adding several more images to my Italy Series beyond this posting,  so please stop by and check them out.
