Erika Huffman is known for her raw and candid portraits and her latest series of black and white portraits is nothing short of spectacular. After purchasing a DSLR camera in the winter of 2010, the photographer began to photograph her 8-month old son and hasn't stopped with her hobby ever since.
Self-described as a shy introvert, the artist captures intimate and revealing portraits of her subjects that are evocative of emotion and a spontaneous moment in time. Capturing the essence of her subjects' personalities, the photographer connects with each individuak that she captures and creates unforgettable images.
"Her photographs are a record of shared moments of intimacy and are, as such, reflections of both her and her subjects.”
