photos and tea's photostream
|
Hi! I am Sandra. I have worked as a book editor, technical writer, communications professional, yoga teacher, and co-owner of a yoga studio, but I live with a camera in hand. Though I have been shooting photographs since I was 13 years old, it is only within the last few years that I have taken a serious interest in photography.
My flickr stream is where I experiment and play with equipment, techniques, and post-production processes. I love learning from my fellow flickr members through your inspiring images and your thoughtful comments.
Oh, and why the screen name photos and tea? Simple. I like photos, and I like tea. Often, I can be found at the computer, editing images and drinking a cup of chai, or jasmine, or chamomile with mint.

"Everytime I look at Sandra's images I feel like I am going on a little journey to a serene and tranquil place. Her images give me a sense of joy and happiness, and I find myself wishing I was there because of how beautifully she presents it.
Thank you Sandra for helping me see everyday places and items in a beautiful way."22nd June, 2011

Nurse Kato says:
"Over the past 8 months my eyes have continually found excellence in Sandra's images. I've found it a pleasure to watch her images grow and mature just like so many of her beautifully blossoming subjects.
The colors in her images have the ability to make a dyed in the wool monochrome guy jealous and I suspect that the beautiful light and colors she presents to us flow from a deep well of a superb individual.
Her recent images of an engagement, taken in March of this year, really cemented in my mind how awesome of a photographer Sandra is. A set of engagement/wedding images that for once didn't make me click away. Indeed, I lingered quite some time in her works of art. Cheers Sandra!"27th May, 2010

"Sandra is a master of her craft; she continues to prove that she is great in everything that she does. Upon first visiting her stream I was taken back by the variety of images I was greeted with. I soon noticed the quality of her images and the vibrant colors that came with each. I have only known her for a few months, but she has continued to show me that the ordinary can be turned into something spectacular with the click of a shutter. I appreciate her creativity and look to her photos for inspiration.
Thank you for continued excellence in photography. I look forward to your photos and the story that comes with each."14th May, 2010
