Perfect portrait photos by Sophie Rata from Belgium

Sophie Rata is a Belgian Photographer

“I love beauty. Not the classical stereotype everything-is-perfect kind of
beauty, but more like a glimpse, a moment, a gaze of something more than just what's in front of me.

The idea behind most of my personal work is abstract, an instinct or a certain ambiance rather than a concrete subject or message. Like a musical composition is a combination of sounds, my work could be defined as a combination of elements, atmospheres, feelings and improvising.

I strive technical and emotional perfection in photography: imagery beauty, creating the right atmosphere, artistry and technique without losing the 'natural appearance' or flow of the image. In my edits I always choose subtle color changes, contrast and density in order to create a certain atmosphere and even when the edits are bigger, I always try to make them have a subtle, soft and natural feel. I always aim to create the right atmosphere on set to reduce post production to a minimum.”

"My favorite photograph is the one I will be making tomorrow."

“You don't take a photograph, you make it.”
