About Lisa:



Lisa has always loved taking pictures.  Pictures are entertainment for her;  they are one of the coolest forms of expression.  She is always the one who wants to pull out old family albums from the closet and look at pictures she has seen a million times.  After raising my two kids, her occasional hobby turned into something more, and she is so glad it did.  

Lisa likes to describe her work as random.  Random, odd, unusual things that just happen to catch her eye - things one might not see every day, anything that will make her laugh or  think - that is what she loves to capture most.  It can be anything really, from tacky laundromats to rollerderby jammers, to a huge bingo hall somewhere out in the middle of Nowhere, Kentucky, to capturing the true beauty of the cheese coney.

Lisa sells prints on Etsy.com, and  really enjoys the work she has been doing with people - she challenges herself to get the personality of the subject instead of that "1, 2, 3 cheeese" set up of everyone smiling at once on cue in their Sunday best.

Her most honest portraits so far have been from the little ones that haven't been trained to sit perfectly still and smile for a picture yet.  And if they have learned that already, Lisa is willing to spend a lot of time undoing that  to get the shot she is looking for.    

In the past three years she has met some incredibly diverse and talented people with all different styles of photography that keep her inspired every day.

Basically, she takes pictures that entertain her, and  figures when she start taking pictures just to entertain others, she will go find another hobby.  Nah, that's a lie.  She's addicted.


About Bill: 

Photography has had such a profound and positive impact on Bill's life.  Not only has it taken me to some of the most beautiful places he ever could have imagined, but it has introduced him to some of the most wonderful people, and it has made him look at the world through different eyes.  Bill never thought, almost 5 years ago, when he bought my first digital camera, that it would have taken him on the journey that it has. He is also looking forward to what future photography has in store.  It has been truly gratifying, not only because he can escape from the everyday hustle and bustle shooting a 70 ft. waterfall or by going into the back yard and shooting a wolf spider in search of prey, but also because of the friendships that Ihe now shares with so many wonderful people from Club Blatz and Flickr.  Without photography Bill thinks there would be a lot more boredom and a lot more beer in his life, but on the other side there’d probably be a lot more done around the house.  To him, it’s been worth it.
