Having a niece is probably the best thing in the world. I'm so lucky I live close enough to get to spend so much time with her and get to know her as she grows up. We went to High Park in Toronto a little while ago when she could only say "Ances", now I'm full blown "Frances". Excuse me while my heart bursts.
Frances
I'm Frances-- a photographer with a fine art background and a serious soft spot for love, wide open spaces, wandering barefoot and giving epic hugs. I'm drawn to connections, anything outdoors, raw emotion, natural light and the human experience. I am a big believer in bear hugs, loving big, and making things by hand. I think I look ridiculous when I laugh, but it never stops me from doing so.
Photography for me is all about connection and creating a window into your lives for future generations to peer into. Every one and every relationship is unique. Your images should be too. Annie Leibovitz said it best "When I say I want to photograph someone, what it really means is that I'd like to know them." That is so true for me. I don't just want to photograph you, I want to know you.
