Claire Parks Photography: Background
Claire is a Deniliquin-based photographer with a wide range of photographic interests. From Riverina landscapes and Polocrosse and rodeo events to agricultural and nature photography, Claire's skills also extend to family and special occasion photography, livestock and other commercial photography. Claire grew up on a mixed grazing and cropping farm near a small town in the South West of the New South Wales Riverina called Wakool, and has a real love for the country, its people and places. Claire's love of photography started from a young age after being enthralled by her grandfather's slide shows of his travels. That early introduction to how photography can capture people and places in both stunning colours and the contrasts of black and white continues today. Further education into the joys of a dark room at secondary school gave a whole new meaning to how the editing of photos can enhance a single image or a series of image to achieve their full potential. |
