Salvi

One of the ways in which I learned how to use my camera was through the use of following my two and a half year old cat, Salvi (named after Salvador Dali), around and taking her picture of her cool and collected poses. She has always like the camera, even when she was just a kitten. Like all cats, she has an elegance about her that transcends through the lens of the camera and onto the photograph. She is a curious one, but her independence helps her to forget there is a camera 8 inches away from her face, and I end up with shots that can't be coaxed. For others, her eye contact is crucial as her eyes are special, as they are orange like her fur, and I believe that is what draws me to her with my camera; therefore, I have to make a strange sound to get her attention.

First Take Away Card


For photographers any artist, leave behind or take aways are a must. They are the next generation of business cards for artists, good for leaving at galleries, for potential clients, and or just anybody you think might be interested enough in your work, and might tell others about it. This one is my first one, and as I grow with my artwork, I plan for them to grow with confidence and become much more than just a little post card. Nonetheless, this is my first. Any suggestions
