Featured in Red Tricycle!

Big news for M. Larson Photography today - we are being featured in a Red Tricycle Dedicated email! This email will go out to Red Tricycle's subscribers in the Seattle area and is all about my Vintage Photography for children and maternity portraiture.

In case you can't read the text, I have copied it for you here:

What is it about a vintage photo that evokes such strong emotion? The small, square silvery silhouette that offers a glimpse of days gone by is a treasured reminder of your family, your history, your heritage.

Wouldn't it be cool to capture your own family in that same dramatic, retro style? Seattle photographer Martha Larson fell in love with vintage photos from the 1940s and 1950s and began offering vintage portraits as part of her children and maternity photography business. The response from clients has been overwhelming and vintage has now become the biggest request of new clients. As you scroll through the photographer's beautiful, haunting gallery of vintage portraits, you can see why clients adore Larson’s artsy, modern-meets-retro approach.

Larson is clear to point out that this is not a Photoshop technique (though she can edit and enhance the shots post-production) -- she actually shoots with vintage 40s and 50s cameras, authentically reproducing the look and feel of early and mid-century photos.

Currently the only photographer in Seattle utilizing this iconic style, Larson shoots vintage primarily with pregnant women, couples and children and always shoots digital alongside (though 9 times out of 10 clients favor the old school shots). Who says nostalgia isn’t what it used to be?
