This Lady Knows How To Take A Photograph




When I was first introduced to the work of photographer Jean Allsopp I saw immediately there is something special to her work. They way in which she captures rooms, shooting in natural light, results in stunning yet realistic images which portray a space as they look on their best days in real life.







It was such a treat to interview Jean for a story we ran in our Holiday issue last fall, learning what she believes is key to capturing the homes and spaces she photographs with the beauty and clarity seen in her shots. In the article we share more of her great images and the story behind her venturing out on her own, after a successful career as a staff photographer at Southern Living and later Coastal Living.
