Cold blooded, thick skinned and climbing the walls

I am a graphic designer, fine artist and photographer living in the SF Bay Area of California with my husband, dog and cat. I prefer to think of myself as a budding blues guitarist though. ;-)

I just finished putting together my first book, TREECYCLE. It's a coffee table book with over 100 IR photos of living trees, and their counterpart, driftwood.

Check it out!

    "After a long break I have finally found one of my all time favorite photographers again. The one thing I always loved about Geck's images is the wonderful artistic nature of all of them. It's not that she's just taking an image of something, it's almost like she is creating the subject for us to view.

    She is an inspiration to all of us who view her work. I am so glad to have found her work again... Now where's my damn camera!!!

    "A wonderful photographer.
    She is not after the unseen, on the contorary, she gets into what we see and ignore then show us what we have missed."
