In the interview, Shoutout LA explored my entrepreneurial journey and the thought process behind starting my business. It was a chance to articulate my passion for helping individuals and organizations reveal their true essence through compelling portraits. My goal has always been to go beyond traditional headshots, creating images that become a powerful part of their brand and identity.

The article also delved into my career and artistic approach. What sets my work apart is the commitment to challenge conventions and capture the essence of individuals in a unique way, transcending the typical portrayal of famous figures. Over the years, I've had the privilege of photographing iconic personalities, and it's a testament to my unconventional approach that my work has been recognized and acquired by the prestigious National Portrait Gallery in London.

My distinctive style draws inspiration from classical portrait painters of the Renaissance, such as Rembrandt and Caravaggio, blending timeless techniques with contemporary subjects to create portraits that stand the test of time.

Crafting the perfect week for a friend visiting the area, as outlined in the article, includes a blend of cultural exploration, culinary delights, and urban adventures in Downtown LA. This reflects the rich diversity and vibrancy of the city that I love to share.

Lastly, I'd like to give a special shoutout to my wife, Alexandra, who has been a constant source of support and inspiration in my journey. Her unwavering dedication and creativity have played a pivotal role in the success of Rory Lewis Photographer.
