I enjoy using a camera to translate my visualization into reality on paper. Visualization is defined as the ability to see in the "mind's eye" the finished work before actual application. It is the creative process of images transitioning from the realm of the reactive and contemplative to the conscious and deliberate. An element of surreal gives the viewer a different perspective on the subject, removing the literal and getting down to the essence of conveying the energy of the subject. For me, the image begins when the work goes beyond merely representing reality and enters the realm of personal expression. My methods are meant to be intentional, whether in the camera or post processing.

Road Trip


I just came back from visiting Arizona with my husband for a conference trip. One afternoon we were headed to a Jeep tour of the desert and we were being carted like sheep on a huge tour bus. I had the window seat and kept hoping that some cool car would come along for me to shoot with the mountatin BG and make it look like an old postcard! And voila! Along came the car! I know...the car isn't really vintage but it will have to do! It just felt right!
