Photography is a form of art that illustrates the artist's point of view, solely the artist's vision.
Other eyes could have a different vision, or a different perspective. Never the two will meet.
Every photo is as unique as the person that takes it.
Favoring a square photographic format my goal is to take the viewers beyond the realm of belief to the outer limits of imagination, to make them follow their curiosity into the unknown, hoping they want to live a thousand lives in one, like I do, and to push them to change the reality of things with their minds.
Coming from a lifetime-long background of fashion design, I use dresses that I make myself, fabrics and whimsical visuals to composite surreal images within dreamy, painterly nature settings that feature scenes filled with rich color and elegant flowing female forms.
Each image is carefully planned and crafted through imagination, pen and paper before any shoot. The process of creation starts in the mind, and the camera and the computer become accessories to turn reality into fantasy. The editing process takes it from a world seen to a world created. Photoshop is my canvas and it's digital brushes the unconventional mediums I use to paint my imaginary worlds.
I like to add textures into my photographs, I believe they bring life, drama, vibrance and dimensionality to images. My intention is to direct the eye of the viewer to the center of interest in the image. The subject is strengthened as a result and contrasts in tone and color with the background.
