Overview

In 2015 Simone Severo spent the entire year photographing A Portrait a Day, a personal project who took her out of her comfort zone to create 365 unique portraits of 365 different people. This book contains all the portraits of this journey and selected stories that either represent her best photographs or her most interesting stories. A Portrait a Day has a "journal" feeling, where you read the stories and see the portraits as if you knew the people. If you like photography and people, this book is for you.

Description
A Portrait a Day is the result of a year-long journey photographing 365 different people, one a day, every single day of the year in 2015. It started as a photography project and it ended as a people project. The project was a commitment to connect with people and to become a better photographer, while expanding my network and challenging my skills as a photographer. This was by far the most interesting project I ever started (and finished), and the most rewarding. A Portrait a Day is a photography book but it is a people book as well, as it contains the best selected portraits/stories in full page while still keeping every single portrait in the book. A Portrait a Day has a "journal" feeling, where you read the stories and see the portraits as if you knew the people. If you like photography and people, this book is for you.
About the author

Simone Severo has been a photographer for over twenty years in both her native country of Brazil and her new, beloved America. Inspired by her grandfather, she has achieved her childhood dream of capturing honest portraits and sharing her knowledge through teaching more than one hundred classes and workshops. With each portrait, Simone strives to capture the essence of her subjects. Although she takes portraits in many styles, she specializes in dark, dramatic images. Her lighting technique has been developed and perfected over many years to achieve her iconic, signature portraits. Simone frequently updates her portfolio with fresh images. She is currently working on two other books, which will be published later this year, and she will soon begin a new, fascinating, and ambitious portrait project…You are going to love it!
