About

Linda D. Lewis

Linda who is a proud native of Ohio and recent transplant to California is an avid photographer with a deep passion for both nature and architectural photography. She enjoys capturing the intricate details of the natural world as well as the striking lines of various buildings. In addition to her primary photography work, she occasionally flirts with portrait photography, taking the opportunity to explore this different genre now and then.

Two passions that often intertwine in my life are the poetry of others and my photography. Both art forms offer a unique lens through which to experience the world, allowing me to explore emotions and moments that might otherwise go unnoticed. Through others’ poetry I can appreciate the essence of a fleeting moment beautifully and skillfully put into words, capturing feelings and thoughts that resonate deeply within me. Similarly, photography serves as a visual poetry, where each image tells a story, inviting viewers to reflect and interpret. The interplay between light and shadow, color and texture, can evoke emotions akin to those found in verse.

When I set out with my camera, I seek not only to capture the physical beauty of a scene but also to express a deeper narrative—one that resonates with the themes of others’ poetry. Each photograph I take often reminds me of a favorite poem; nature's landscapes, the laughter of a child, or the quiet solitude of an evening remind me of the beauty of existence. Conversely, a powerful piece of writing can lead me to seek out specific images that embody its spirit. This cyclical relationship enhances both passions, ensuring that each journey into the world, whether through word or image, reveals new layers of insight and creativity.

The union of poetry and photography enriches my understanding of the world and allows me to document it in a way that feels both personal and universal.

Join me on this journey of exploration and discovery through vision and verse. Together, we can face challenges, gaining new insights along the way. Each step offers opportunities for growth and understanding. I hope you will share in this adventure, fostering curiosity and community. Let’s inspire each other as we move forward, and I look forward to seeing where this path takes us.
