WOMEN AS pAoToaRAPHERs.

1t seems strange that so few women
succeed as photographers. for women
prefer to go to their own sex to be
photographed rather than to an obvi
uusly "professional' man. whose atten-
.ions remind them uncomfortably Of
chose of a dentist.
The trouble with the feminine
photographer is that she e~ndeavors to
be too artistic, at the expense of the
wishes of her patrons. People get their
pictures taken because they Gesire a
likeness and they DO not relish am i'm
pressionistic portrait vanishing into
the shadow. Furthermore. she dis
regards her SUBJECTS individuality. She
should first of all try to find out now
they imagine they look-a very differ
ent thing from their actual appearance
and then strive to attain that ideal.
She must somehow make a nervous
! disheveled, ul.attractive woman q
| miracle OF cham, and all without such
gross flattery as to cause suspicion.
None of the other feminine arts will
come almiss in her makeup. sone must
know just hut clothes and what al
terations in the dress will work the
transformation. and she must in a way
play the hostess, and put her subject
at her ease.
1t is difficuls art. but those who dc
succeed find tfylt in every way they ars
repaid for the frouble lt tcok them lC
reach their present status. And the
best Of all is chat the overly esthetic
i photographer '3ill find that by sup
pressing her eirly artistic" tendencies
she has arrived at that true art which
is only expres.ed in simplicity ant
naturalneSS.
