Elizabeth Brooke (ebrooke)
Through each of these life experiences, Elizabeth pursued photography - first as an avocation and later as a professional. Her life as a photographer has taken her on a voyage carrying her along what is here, right now, in the moment. When she looks through the lens, her mind attunes to the edges, capturing the raw quality and feeling of the moment. When she unites with something beyond the camera, she doesn't think, “Change my f-stop, move right, left, up, down”; she senses what is right, what just is: creative intuition. Her goal has always been to produce images to be shared.
Elizabeth describes her intention with her photography practice as…”to explore what lies beneath, ask questions, and celebrate the beauty and diversity of like we all share on this amazing planet.”
Inspired by the poet Mary Oliver, Elizabeth’s philosophy for her photography is this:
Stop, look, listen
Pay attention.
Be astonished.
Tell about it.
