In one of the interviews, Sodanie Chea photographer described how she started with self portrait photography primarily because she had very few photos but at the end it greatly influenced her later works with models. Developing her skills, she played with various lighting techniques and found new ways to be creative.

Portraiture is not so much shooting people as transmitting their emotions and feelings through a photograph. In order to produce a really good portrait, you need to love people, be able to interact with them and feel the right moment.

I think Sodanie Chea does this perfectly. Her works prove that great portraiture isn’t so much in the settings and lighting you use because those portrait photography ideas.
