“Before I had kids, my photographic work was work, done for other people and for a paycheck. The camera stayed in the bag as I lived my everyday life. When the kids came, the camera came out and I started to capture the kinds of moments I was capturing for my clients, only now for myself. I began to tell my own story.” -An excerpt from Memories in the Making by Tracey Clark.

“Observation is always the way to begin. By taking the time to look and see the world around you and all of its nuances in light, shadow, shape, line, color and texture, you’ll better see each subject and how much visual wonder there is in everything—no subject too mundane, no moment too ordinary to elevate into something interesting and beautiful.” -An excerpt from  A Perspective Least Expected by Tracey Clark.

“When testing, trying and experimenting, the art of color photography can get quite interesting: intense, expressive, even playful. I gravitate toward the more playful, whimsical side of color use, as I often fill my frame with as much color as I can—rows of colored shoes, art supplies or vibrant graffiti, all of which make my heart sing.” -An excerpt from  Passion for Color by Xanthe Berkeley.

“Through silhouetting, your subjects become faceless.

“Documentary photography holds the power to capture moments of historical significance, to broaden our exposure to people, places and experiences beyond our reach, to shape (or shatter) our perceptions and to offer an authentic view of humanity. While photography is much about exposing what we see, there’s so much more going on beneath the surface.: -An excerpt from Lens on Life by Stephanie Roberts.

“Self-portraiture insists that we embark on a journey of self-exploration. This journey of self brings about choices, the main one being how to represent ourselves authentically. We always get to choose how we see ourselves; this is the beauty of self-portraits.” -An excerpt from Express Yourself by Meredith Winn.
