Portraits of Eliza



Oh youth! These pics were taken on the beach at Positano. The top one is of the exuberant Eliza full of enthusiam and joy.. The bottom was taken in a quieter moment on the same day.She is divine whatever mood she is in..

To achieve the muted colours in the bottom pic I have used a 'bleach bypass' effect which desaturates the colours..

Hope you are enjoying the summer..

    You are such a beautiful photographer Carla. I received a bonus from work last month and treated myself to four books you have done photography for. (I already had "Paris Tango")

    I've already spent several hours just daydreaming while looking at Italian Joy and My Amalfi Coast, they are just so inspiring.

    Looking forward to the next book you come out with!

    Carla - These are beautiful! I adore the B&W - I have a photo of my daughter around the same age, on a beach in Positano, in a stripe suite. Thank you for posting these - they evoke memories of the sun, fun and smells of food and seaside life. Stunning.

    how perfect to open your post first thing on a Sunday morning...I have a nine year old daughter and she is full of joy and often pensive. You capture her so beautifully the love shows!

    both beautiful photos of a very pretty young exuberant girl. The top photo, is doubly striking for the mid air pose the strips and the umbrella's framing her also in an upright position with stripes, how clever, and chic.

    Eliza's first photo made me smile from ear to ear - such happiness! The second makes me wonder what she's thinking...

    Good for her! Love life and always keep a few secrets!

    These are beautiful Carla, the top one is full of brio and energy, the bottom one has a wonderful tranquility about it, just like the beach in the evenings ...amazing :)
