NYC Portrait Photography
New York, 2005
Elizabeth Solaka creates portraits on medium-format film using a Hasselblad and natural light. She photographs artists, authors, and executives seeking portraits with presence and character. Families also commission portraits to honor the oldest generation while everyone is still together.
Editorial and styled portraits are available for clients seeking personal branding, professional portfolios, creative portfolios, or modeling submissions. These sessions emphasize confidence, individuality and beauty.
Her work draws on the fashion portrait tradition associated with Irving Penn and the direct human observation that defines the photography of Diane Arbus. Working in natural environments, studios, and on the streets of New York, she creates film portraits for editorial, personal, and commissioned projects.
