Between raising a 3-year-old and 1-year-old, I've miraculously had time recently to put together a photography gallery to show my work around the city. My artwork currently consists of a few photos promoting my maternity and baby portrait sessions as well as a few (Not So) Still Life pieces for sale. This gallery is now up at 5 Focus (www.5focus.com) in South Lake Union from September 15 through October 31st, so stop by and check it out while you're sampling their Cafe' Mae menu!
These three pictures below are part of the (Not So) Still Life series I have been shooting on the side. They consist of fruits and vegetables photographed on a very clean, simple white backdrop. While most photographers work really hard and use extra equipment to prevent camera shake, I am promoting it! I am creating colorful, abstract images that essentially turn a grouping of mandarin oranges into a flower (or whatever else you may see). The images are not changed in Photoshop in any way, except for normal dust-spotting and color correction procedures. Stop by and check them out! I will also be adding a Featured Gallery section to my website soon, which will allow you to view these images and purchase them directly from the site.
Shown here: the mandarin oranges, cherry tomatoes, and blueberries.
Congratulations on your first show, Kim. I love your spin on the still life... after all life is not still. The colors of the fruits and the unique shapes your technique produce are so fun! You are doing an amazing job balancing both business and motherhood... keep up the good work!
