"A Photographer Always..."
Aspiring Artists
"When we pick up our cameras we aspire to create... When we make images we want our images to be art. Art is very subjective and it all starts with what we like to look at and what we see in our minds eye..."
Creating art is a journey and it has to start somewhere. It starts first in your heart and takes flight through passion. No matter the medium if you feel it to make it, you will do anything to make it happen.
Fine Art Photography
Stanwycks creates Photography, Paints, Paintings and Giclée's, Teaches workshops and classes and goes on Assignment either in the studio or on-location. We all aspire to be an artist and create the best that we can.
"To Create is to be fearless..."
"I started traveling and creating images wherever and whenever I could. To create is to be fearless, don't be afraid of what others think. If you want to do something - you might think, it's been done before and stop before you start. A wise woman told me once, "It's all been done before, do it anyway!" And that has been my light to do what inspires me to try, learn, fail and do it again.
It's the fails that make you better and the wins that keep you trying for more. "
Nuts & Bolts to Sparkle...
My career has been a great journey of photographing nuts and bolts to beautiful things and people. I have taken some of the most mundane things and made them sparkle because I saw something mundane as a gem in the rough. It's how we see that can make all the difference in the world. Industrial Photography can be awesome, at least to me. Someone else not so much. be good at what you like to see and show it in your images.

Developing a Style
Photography is a skill and developing a style makes you unique from someone else. Their are many who pick up a camera and call themselves an artist, but being an artist that offers a style unique to their art makes them that much more unique.
Stanwycks offers her knowledge to help you develop that distinction in your work. Developing a Style brings another layer to your work personally and as an artist.
Photographic Arts Coaching
Photographic Arts Coaching
Photography is an art and a science. Many want to explore the art of it and be creative artists. So understanding what you want to accomplish is key to your endeavors as an artist. There are steps to defining you as an artist.
Photography Arts Coaching with Vicki helps give you clarity on where you are now and where you want to go with your skills and talent. We work on the Craft of Photography, Developing Style with your works and your portfolio. These are the building blocks to being a part of the Photographic Arts Community.
Creating a Portfolio
Creating a Portfolio is a large part of the development of being a photographer. What is a portfolio? A portfolio should consist of a body of work that reflects your vision and skill as a photographer.
As a creative artist your portfolios should reflect your style and unique qualities to show the world who you are and what you can do.
Using Your Camera to Tell Stories...
Photography in general alludes to fun and excitement. Photography also brings one to many places both in your minds eye and in the actual photograph. We travel to exotic places with the idea in mind to create equally exotic Photographs. We are travelers, we are adventure seekers and we want to see and do more and capture it through our cameras.
However if we don't know how to do it well, all that excitement dies fast when our Photographs don't look like what we felt and saw. Good Photography creates a feeling and better photography get us excited. The old cliché that;
"A picture is worth a thousand Words!"
