Building Relationships

December 1, 2020 by Pamela Benham Filed Under: Blogs

Asking for an updated portrait seems indulgent. What difference does it make? Who wants to see me? A portrait with a purpose. A face with a story. We’re curious. We want to connect. Your portrait is the first step towards extending a hand, towards building a relationship.

This is what I do. Real portraits. For real people. In real businesses.

Photographs show your journey and tell your story.

We want to see you

” It’s one thing to make a picture of what a person looks like, it’s another thing to make a portrait of who they are.” – **Paul Caponigro**

We are exploring the power of portraits and how they build relationships. Now is the time to take a step, to boldly show up. I’m here to help you do that. If you’re interested in exploring you, your business, a new person or product launch, I would love to talk with you. Please click: pam.benham@gmail.com

Grit

I strolled in a middle school, pre-pandemic, the halls were empty. Where was the action? A finger pointed outside. Nothing was the same after.

They moved tractor tires. They stretched, danced and discovered their bodies were magical. They pushed their peers in carts. They looked each other in the eye, shook hands, straightened their shoulders and gained a few inches of confidence. They dug deep into peer pressure and empathy. They collaborated, explored and discovered.

Focus

Focus, is the pulse of photography. Seeing a moment, making an image, telling your story.

Why is this important? Without images of who you are – who you serve and why we need to remember, you are a blank screen.

I create images that fill your screen. They’re powerful, to the point – made in real time, with real people. They are you.

We want to hear you, see you and tell

your story.

A SILENT CHANGE

Who knew when our world shifted we would shift with it. I offer you her story. A practice. Magical and powerful in the same breath.

A message popped up on my screen. Meditation with Jodie Lea, via Facebook Live. What the hell was this? We had gone into lock down. A pandemic was raging. Meditation?

Many days, Jodie practiced in her yurt. Other days, we followed her digitally into Ponderosa Park, wind blowing, serenity spinning. As the sun set, the singing bowl gradually became silent, bowing our heads, we released hope and peace into our, yours and everyone’s world. Namaste to our humanity.
