Irina was a visitor to Artsfest where she and her son appeared to be really enjoying themselves.
I like this portrait as I think our photographer has captured some of Irina’s spark and enthusiam, which is hard to do when your subject isn’t looking directly at the camera. I liked her earrings too, and asked our photographer to get a few shots up close so you could see her individuality and style.

Following her photo, Irina spent some time with our videographers:

Watch the video – now you’ve seen Irina talk – how well do you think the portrait captures her personality?
