kamphora's photostream
|

I'm relatively new to photography, unless you count the countless photos I took while in elementary school on a cheap kids' camera. One day I'll scan the best of those and upload them for posterity. In the meantime, I have lots to learn. I love feedback, I love looking at other people's work, so please, comment!
I've always been a visual sort, and am typically involved in one creative outlet or another, including wheel-thrown pottery, jewelry-making, and cooking. I love beautiful things, and my definition of beauty is broad. I am also endlessly fascinated by the ways people express themselves.
Photography is a new way of looking at the world for me, of being in the world. Sometimes I feel it connects me to my subject, other times it seems the process of being an observer disconnects me from the observed. I'm enjoying playing in both arenas, and skating on the edge between them.

Michael Hunter says:
"I always find Kamphora's photostream an individual & inspiring journey. She definitely sees things from a different perspective. She captures family & friends personal moments delightfully. I always look forward to her next "self portrait bathroom reflection" shot. They rock!
Finally, she always takes time to view, write and critique on other peoples photos. She's given me a big head with all her praise & I'm glad she's on my Flickr contact list.

"Kamphora is such an amazingly talented photographer. She was composing brilliant digital images with a point 'n shoot, then she purchased a Canon EOS XSi, and as the saying goes, "The rest is history." Now her camera has no limits and her photostream is filled with even more impressive diversity of subjects.
When shooting photos with Kamphora, her enthusiasm inspires me to look at the world through the lense of my camera in ways which I have not always done so before. Some of my digital images are a result of her inspiration. I'm fortunate to have Kamphora as a wonderful Muse and friend. And I always look forward to our next photography adventure."21st June, 2009
