About

Janette James, principal photographer at Tall Angel Portraits, is an award-winning photographer. Her images have been shown in galleries across the United States.

 

She is a lover of life and art.

 

She loves to take photographs in black & white but because she sees life in many shades of gray, color photographs sneak in.

 

She always knew she loved children and has three of her own. What came as a surprise is that she also seems to be a lover of animals. She is still not sure how it happened, but she is also mother to a menagerie of animals: cats, dogs, guinea pigs, chickens, birds, and she is still hopeful goats will be added to the mix one day!

 

She has absolutely no sense of direction and will go left when she should go right (this seems to have been a metaphor for her life as well!), but surprisingly she has an uncanny ability to “see” beyond the surface when it comes to women and always knows what direction to go in when it comes her camera.. She can scan a face and know exactly what light will illuminate and accent the beauty that is radiating at her!

​

She loves to show women what they have never seen in themselves before! 

​

Photographing women makes her life happy and joyful in a way no other “job” could for her.
