Hellen van Meene is a photographer that takes mostly portraits. The majority of her photos feature young people and girls. Thanks to her galleries she can make a living doing what she loves. Her work is shown in museums and galleries all over the world. She is the single subject of three books and appears along other artists in many other books and magazines. She lives in Heiloo, The Netherlands.
Her work:
Hellen's photos consistently show her unique style. They feature the subject in the center of the composition, and often use simple backgrounds. The color in her pieces is usually very neutral as well. But the subject is most often wearing the color/s that stand out the greatest amount. Her subjects also retain a very consistent facial expression. Looking as if there is no photographer present, their faces appear blank and sometimes in a negative mood. Her combination of indoor and outdoor photography is also very interesting. It appears as though all her photos were taken in one house and one back yard.
