Innocent Smile

from $35.00

Some photographs are about high drama. This one is about the exact opposite: a moment of pure, unadulterated, and completely safe joy.

It’s impossible to look at this baby elephant and not be charmed by that little "toothy" grin. It’s an expression of pure innocence. But the "why" of the smile is just as important. Just out of frame, its mother stands guard, creating a bubble of perfect safety.

This isn't just a "cute" photograph. It’s an attempt to capture the feeling of being completely protected. The beautiful, soft background and warm light all serve to wrap the baby in this moment of perfect contentment.

A signature piece from the "An Unspoken Bond" chapter of the "Africa's Primal Grace" collection, this print is a heartwarming and emotional portrait of safety and joy.

Print & Medium

To fully capture the soft, warm tones and the incredible, tactile textures of this portrait, my choice for this print is the Hahnemühle Photo Rag. This is a museum-grade, 100% cotton paper with a subtle, fine-toothed matte surface. This non-reflective finish is essential for such an intimate moment, drawing you right into that "innocent smile" and the beautiful bokeh of the background without any distracting glare.

This print is available in sizes up to 24x30 inches. Please contact me directly for custom sizes, framing, or other medium requests.
