Hi there! I am an Upper Valley and Keene NH Photographer. As a photographer here in the Upper Valley in Keene, I felt it was time to make my client referral program more “official”
As a portrait photographer here in the Upper Valley, I love all kinds of fine art expression, especially with respect to layering in Photoshop creating digital mixed media pieces, as well as watercolor and acrylic painting and drawing as well. Being part of the AVA Gallery art community here in Lebanon, NH is such a blessing and a gift. A couple of my abstract botanical paintings sold at the AVA Gallery, which I am pleased to share. Drawing and painting are passions of mine as well as photography and Photoshop wonderment. See below for the paintings and the exhibits. I hope they are bringing joy to people’s homes or work spaces.
2022 10×10 fundraiser show for the AVA Gallery and 2021 Wintry Mix Holiday show featured some of my abstract botanical paintings.
As a Keene NH and Upper Valley photographer, I am super amped to have another Keene Art Walk under my belt. My first was in 2012.
Artist Statement: In these large portraits and digital photographic collages, I combine a love of portraiture, a growing fascination with botany, reverence for the feminine, the cyclical nature of the seasons, the concept of impermanence, surrealism, and dreaminess. Increasingly fascinated by the Wheel of the Year and annual natural rhythms, I incorporate elements from nature into my photographic works. The temporary (and ephemeral) nature of things resonates deeply with me. For example, my costumes are usually assembled the day-of the shoot and models need to be flexible around changing weather conditions and optimal locations in terms of blooms. I enjoy working with fleeting elements in my images. In my digital photo collages, I layer photographs I have taken in nature over my portraits and dive deep in Photoshop working with layers, colors, textures and to create a finished image.
As a portrait photographer here in the Upper Valley of NH and VT, I am always looking to expand my knowledge base and my experience. I learned so many cool things at the PhotoPlus expo at the Javits Center in New York last month. Here are some highlights. The first highlights are from Tony Tran’s photo walk (I did not take the first photo (as I am in it!), but I do not know who to credit for it. The very last photo is one I took after posing the couple over by the Vessel where we were situated

If you’re in the Sussex or Warren County area, and you have children, then you’ve probably heard of Dr Chi. Actually, if you’re under 40, and you grew up in the area, there’s a chance he has been your pediatrician. He’s kind of a mainstay in the area who has been around …. pretty much forever!…
