Since I was little I loved those Kodak disposable cameras and would use them up almost immediately. Now I get to use a big fancy camera to make other peoples’ dreams come true; it is the best job ever.

MEET WENDY
Born in Winfield, Illinois, and raised in Central/Eastern Europe, I thrive on the unexpected adventures and joys of life. I love capturing fleeting moments because their momentary nature makes them all the more sacred and beautiful.
“We don’t freeze time when we photograph, but we do capture a frozen image that can transport the viewer back to that very second. That is the brutal responsibility of a photographer— to build an album of frozen moments that are creatively framed, composed with care, and edited to transport the viewer not only to the reality of what it looked like but also to what the moment felt like. That is my goal when doing this work.”
