R.Lo is a lady. And a photographer. But you'd better not make the mistake of calling her a lady photographer, because she takes photos of more than just ladies.

R.Lo is a lady. And a photographer. But you'd better not make the mistake of calling her a lady photographer, because she takes photos of more than just ladies. Regardless of the subject of her photographs, one thing is evident in everyone of her photos - her uniqueness. It's rare that she posts a photo, taken from an unexpected angle or with a different composition from the norm, where I don't find myself saying to... myself, "now, why didn't I think of that?" And although the answer may not be blowing in the wind, it can be found within a short conversation with her. Her unique brand of humour warms the heart, as does her genuine consideration and goodwill. And it all lays itself bare in her photography.

Perusing Raffaella's photostream is like a spoonful of sugar for those like myself, who at times, find themselves lacking a certain creativity & originality. When I feel myself unmotivated to shoot -- Raffaella's work is one of the first places I turn to be inspired to be original -- a quality that many strive for, but… Read more

When I feel myself unmotivated to shoot -- Raffaella's work is one of the first places I turn to be inspired to be original -- a quality that many strive for, but few possess.

Legend has it that Raffaella was born with a camera around her neck. While we may never know if this is true, she has admitted that the world takes on a startling clarity whenever she has a lens in front of her eye. She shares this clarity with us by taking photos - be they of items, events, locations, or persons - in such a manner as to remind us that nothing in life is too small, too insignificant, or too ephemeral to warrant a second look.

Some create, some emulate, Raffaella inspires. She has an eye for detail while at the same time being able to keep in perspective the whole situation. Her range stretches from still life and found objects, to uniquely captured portraits. The balance, weight, contrast, saturation and everything other aspect of the fi… Read more

Some create, some emulate, Raffaella inspires. She has an eye for detail while at the same time being able to keep in perspective the whole situation. Her range stretches from still life and found objects, to uniquely captured portraits. The balance, weight, contrast, saturation and everything other aspect of the finished product is carefully thought out, and beautifully executed.

There're buckets of art, and skill, and colour, and lines, and care in Raffaella's pictures. She has an eye to identify and frame this one little detail that will make a clothes shot stand out, that will make a portrait grab you, and that will make the local laundromat a funky place. And last but oh-so-not-least, she's… Read more

There're buckets of art, and skill, and colour, and lines, and care in Raffaella's pictures. She has an eye to identify and frame this one little detail that will make a clothes shot stand out, that will make a portrait grab you, and that will make the local laundromat a funky place. And last but oh-so-not-least, she's the one person who made me take my dusty Prince vinyls off the shelf again, and sing my head off "She wore a raspberry beret, and if it was warm..."
