About Johanna

This picture tells you everything you need to know about me. It's a self-portrait I finished the day after severely injuring myself doing it. It not only depicts my quirkiness, imagination and humor, but also a tenacity to find solutions to any problem, no matter how difficult.

​

As the daughter of an artist, art has always been a part of my life. As a result, my images reflect the richness of textures, colors, and shadows seen in the works of classic masters.  

​

I also spent 30+ years performing, writing, and directing theater, where I developed my communication skills, and acquired the strong, classical basis that informs my lighting and color aesthetics.

I am grateful for the deliberation photography demands; it has helped me to look at everything with intention.
