Hello to all my friends in the Liketu community,
I hope you’re doing great and that everything is going well for you.
I’m menati, and I’m back with another photography project.
This time, it’s about a weekend we spent outdoors with family—surrounded by beautiful, velvety fields covered in green grass that were truly captivating.
For this shoot, I chose to use only natural light to keep the work as real and authentic as possible. Although I usually prefer studio photography, sometimes nature becomes so beautiful that I can’t resist stepping out of my comfort zone.
The subjects of this series are my sister’s family:
Masoumeh (mother), Bahador (father), Setia (daughter), and Sivash (son).
We started with a mother and daughter portrait. After taking a few shots of them looking at the camera, I asked them to look at each other instead. That small change made everything feel more fun and natural the smiles became real, the laughter genuine. Those are the moments when you can truly capture emotion in a photo.
In the following shots, I captured individual portraits of Masoumeh and Sivash. Sivash has a stylish and sporty look, and in this shoot, his outfit really stood out. He was also wearing a cool pair of glasses that suited him well, along with a unique icyblue hair color applied just to the front section.
One of my favorite shots is of the father, Bahador, together with his daughter a photo full of emotion and connection.
Overall, it was a wonderful weekend filled with great moments. Wish you were here with us.
Wherever you are, I hope you stay healthy and happy.
Until next time, goodbye
