About Rae

Rae Lindqvist

Natural-light portrait photographer, Bath

Natural-light portrait photographer. I photograph people in their own rooms, gardens and doorways, and I teach the way I work: no flash, no studio, just reading the light that is already there.

What people say

She photographed us in our kitchen and it looks like a magazine. We did not move a single thing.

The window light lesson alone was worth the price. I stopped being scared of rooms.

One critique a month from someone who actually looks. That is rarer than it should be.

Questions

No. Every portrait on this site was made with the light that was already in the room, garden or street.

At your home or a place you love, within an hour of Bath. Further afield by arrangement.

It is for anyone who photographs people and wants to stop fighting the light. You need a camera with manual controls and a window.
