Self-expression
through photography and the use of many types
of artistic media has been a life long passion for me. As a
photographer I look for candid moments that
express emotion, especially enthusiasm and humor. I love to capture the
unique ways in which people decorate their homes, interact with their
children and their pets and express their individuality. With camera in
hand I scout for spontaneous expressions of individuality and I hope to
share the humor, joy and mystery I find in daily living with my
viewers.
Converting from film
to digital photography opened a whole new
world
for me. Once a young girl asked Annie Lebowitz how to become a
photographer and Lebowitz responded: “take lots of pictures”. Digital
equipment has helped me to be much more spontaneous and prolific in my
photography work. I rarely go anywhere without a camera and I never run
out of “film”. In addition to candid photography and landscape
photography I also do photo restoration, photo painting, and create
photobooks.
Photographers and
visual artists who have influenced my visual
thinking include Margaret Burke-White, David Hockey, Tony Mendoza,
Ulrike Welsch, Gary Winogrand and especially Ben Shan.
