"Isolation, in the Age of Pandemic" - Top 20 Photograph!
in Holga
I'm so incredibly excited to announce that my photograph, "Birds of a Feather", was chosen in the Top 20 for an exhibition at Lightbox Photographic Gallery in Astoria, Oregon. There were 420 images and 69 photographers and this particular exhibition was unique because the top images were peer-selected. If anything, this means more to me than being a part of a traditional juried show because it means my work is valued by my fellow photographers. It was such a fun experience choosing my top 10 favorite images as well, as it allowed me to truly examine the work that was entered into the show, alongside my own. I wish I could go visit Lightbox to see the show in person, but it's still exciting to see my name listed amongst the other winners. Below, I've included more information about the exhibition and you can see all of the other winning images!

Exploring the Oregon Coast on Film | Fine Art Photographs taken along the Oregon Coast
My husband, Chris, and I are going on week 7 of quarantine due to COVID-19 and it’s been an interesting adventure. It’s easy to let the days run together so I’ve been writing down everything I do each day, even if it’s something small. Some days it’s the weather that stands out in my mind, other days it’s the movie my husband and I watched together. I’ve been trying lots of new recipes and reading books that have been sitting on my shelves for years. I’ve tried working from different locations in my house and my backyard to change it up. I’ve written letters to friends and taken new walks in my neighborhood. I’ve also finally gotten back into the groove on working on a book I’m writing! There are days where I feel a little crazy, but it’s also been a great time to re-think my photography business and think about what I really want out of life. My husband and I are usually constantly on the go for work so it’s been nice to slow down and reflect on all of the trips we’ve taken in the last year. For my birthday in February this year, we took a trip to Oregon to visit Chris’ family and for me to do a few photoshoots with Portland fashion designers. I always have to squeeze a personal trip to the coast into my schedule every time we’re in Oregon and this trip was no exception. I’m so glad I did because who knows when we will be able to travel there again!
I wanted to share all of my favorite images from our Oregon Coast trip, captured on various 35mm cameras and of course, the Holga. I experimented with a few new films and filters and I love how colorful the images turned out. Prints can be purchased here. If you do not see the exact print you’re looking for, feel free to reach out and I am happy to place a special order for you. Thanks so much!
