A native of Connecticut, Deborah has lived in New York City and Melbourne, Australia and now resides in Washington, DC. She has traveled extensively and draws inspiration from objects that she encounters in the course of daily life, both at home and abroad.
After many years as a respected IT consultant and successful internet entrepreneur, Deborah is now taking her photography to a higher level. She has exhibited works in numerous exhibitions throughout the Washington, DC area.

The world is full of compelling images. Some make you think, some make you
smile, some fill you with sadness and others leave you breathless with their
beauty. By capturing an image through photography, I seek to capture the
emotion it evokes in me and share it with others.
As a city dweller, I am drawn to the realism and stark beauty of an urban setting. And nature provides inspiration in its changing moods and quiet corners. I work exclusively with natural light and without a tripod to facilitate the capture of my immediate emotional response to a subject. My work uses bold lines, repeating patterns and the play of light and shadow to create intimate portraits of the objects that I encounter in the course of daily life, both at home and abroad. |
