"I have no special qualifications, I am just passionately curious." - Albert Einstein
Su Red currently lives in the Boston area of Massachusetts. She is available to photograph individuals or events, or to write custom pieces for any occasion(some people consider a poem a unique addition to their photos). Short or long term assignments will also be considered.
Objective: To obtain work in the field of photography, using my skills while gaining new ones. My camera is always with me, I am happy shooting and participating in the process of editing photos. There are various photographic jobs in which I could be a great addition to.
Qualifications: A strong portfolio of work in a variety of fields that shows an interest and desire to keep learning. I specialize in color artistic photography and unusual or old cameras, but my journey doesn’t end there. I have the ability to work independently and meet deadlines.
Experience: Artist/ creator of Well-Red Creations: www.myspace.com/wellredcreations and www.flickr.com/slred These are my online portfolios created during 2008. Currently www.wellredcreations.com and my well-red creations facebook fanpage are the only ones I update.
I have been photographing a wide range of subjects including portraits, landscape, architecture, animals, and local shows and musicians. I’m excellent at creating a theme from a random group of shots.
