Portraits

“Every time I get to do a portrait, I get to stare into God’s own face.”
~ John Running

This page features a selection of Running’s photographs, which demonstrates the reverence and respect with which he photographs his subjects both in the studio and on location. Excerpts from his journal provide a context for the photographs in his own words.
