Based out of Charlotte, North Carolina, photographerBrooke Lightis a seasoned product and portrait photographer.
These black and white photographs aren’t like many children’s portraits you’ll see.
And, refreshingly, you won’t find any forced smiles plastered on these girls' faces.
The results are beautifully disarming portraits that really cut to the heart of who these children are.
It’s a concept that came to Light when she was photographing her niece Ruby.
From there, my creative bells were ringing, and I thought there might be something to this.
Check out some of Light’s striking portraits and see for yourself how powerful these non-smiling portraits can be.
