I go places. I get bored easy. I photograph everything.
"Creativity is piercing the mundane to find the marvelous." -Bill Moyers
My first camera was a blue plastic fisher-price 110 made by Kodak in 1984. I was five years old and I still take photos with it. Now a reformed punk rocker, I once hit the streets in my youth with my vintage film camera capturing all the darkness and entropy I found there, not unlike the dingy darkrooms I used for developing.
Today I find myself caught between worlds with a new digital OM-System OM-3, Two Olympus Pen-F bodies and a plethora of modern and vintage film cameras including a c1950 Ciro-Flex dual reflex medium format and a 1974 Minolta SRT 101 my father in law bought when my husband was born. I have added a modern instant cameras to my collection as well.
Many photographers focus on one style or one thing. I have learned that everything is worth photographing. The color, light, shadows, people, places, beauty, creation, entropy, movement and stillness of life move me in a way that no words can describe. I am perpetually in awe of Gods creation and mans destruction, the unbelievable and the mundane. You can't bottle life's energy but you can photograph it.
While I only do non-profit/Pro Bono work now I would still love to hear from you. Direct Message me on Instagram or Facebook or send me an email and lets talk art, travel, and finding the beauty in broken things.
