Maxine Helfman approaches portraiture with the same signature style as her fashion and still life work; minimal and dynamic. Her comfort level with people and relaxed attitude creates the ideal environment for portrait work. With a balance of focus and spontaneity, the result is sometimes quirky, sometimes odd - but always confident, strong and sophisticated.

Developing her skills and style during years as a stylist and art director, she collaborates on every project from concept to execution.

Her portraiture work has included Palm Beach Opera, Alon Energy, Domtar Paper, Neiman Marcus and Ad Council, as well as magazine editorial work.
