Jenna Barrett
I am a bit of a wanderer. I grew up a military brat, never staying in one place for long and always ready for something new. It must have stuck with me because even now I find myself sitting on the edge of my seat, ready for a new adventure and dreaming of the world. I have sailed through tumultuous seas, seen lions in the wild of Africa and climbed to the icy caves atop a glacier.
The one thing I have learned through my travels (other than to double check which immunizations I might need!) is that the world is a beautiful place and that beauty is worth capturing. Whether you are a painter, a sculpture, a photographer, or a sidewalk chalk artist, there is always something around us to inspire one to create. I chose portrait photography as my medium of expression. I love to create images that are unique and convey the beauty and individualism of the subject. I involve myself in every step of the process: designing costumes, scouting locations, constructing props and even doing makeup and hair.
I hope that I can continue to bring beauty and inspiration to people not just here, but all over the world, and that each day brings new challenges and possibilities.
