When thinking about portraits, I often remember the legends where taking a person's image could steal a piece of their soul. On the contrary, I think that a portrait can give us a piece of our soul back. I am convinced that portraits can reveal a lot about someone's personality and bring aspects that we are not aware of about ourselves and others to the surface. Of course, the place, setting and light help me in this, but certainly also my experience as a psychotherapist.
I call this "psychic photography".
