Heike: sounds like "Hi-ka"
My passion for photography started as a child traveling around the world with my parents. I loved that I could capture unique moments and bring them home to build on the memories of everything I experienced. My picture taking took a detour when my children were born. The joy and love they gave me was something I wanted to capture for years to come. I began taking a lot of pictures of my children and then my friends' families and so on.
“Let the beauty that we love be what we do.” |
Being camera shy has helped me appreciate just how important it is to make everyone feel relaxed. My photographic style is laid-back and fun.
Before settling down in Lyme, CT with my husband and three children, I was a marketing professional in Atlanta, Manhattan and Connecticut. While helping a friend at Museum Editions | Art Advisors in New York City, I realized just how much I love and appreciate art in all forms. I studied graphic design at the School of Visual Arts and took many photography classes at the International Center of Photography [ICP] in NYC with Amy Arbus, Harvey Stein and other world recognized photographers. Photography classes have ranged from portrait and street photography to technical classes in lighting and Photoshop. I would be happy to provide you with more information.
