From Los Angeles, California, to Vienna, Austria -and heaps of addresses in between- I live with active curiosity for the arts & humanities, including psychology, languages, sociology and geography.

“Cameras come and go. Areas of interest evolve, but photography remains a force for expression as I make my way through this rich layer-cake of life.”

Hi, I’m Laura

ART PHOTOGRAPHER, EXPLORER, JOY ENTHUSIAST

I’m a fine art photographer born and raised in sunny Los Angeles, California, now living my expat dream in enchanting Vienna, Austria.

My early years were filled with a lot of freedom - especially as compared to today’s standards. I got my first camera at 8 years old and was thrilled to begin recording the world.
To this day I have snapshots from the 1970s of houses in the neighborhood, our family cat Dave, my grandma with tinsel in her hair, friends on the playground at school, even pictures of other pictures - so meta.

In a life punctuated by heaps of change, photography is my throughline.

The appeal of photography endures because there’s always another spark to discover. Ideas gain momentum- sometimes even leapfrog -and I find that I keep coming back to do more .

In addition to holding liberal arts and computer science degrees, I earned a Certificate in General Studies at the International Center of Photography (ICP) in New York City.

I also attend seminars and creative workshops when possible, as cross-pollinating and exchanging ideas with people of the same ilk is one of life’s best rewards.
