Harris is not a new to the arena of awards – she received her first award dating back to 1982 from the New Jersey Conservation Foundation. In more recent years Harris’ accomplishments have included selection for a private event at the O.K. Harris Gallery, NYC; three times published in the Best of Photography Annuals, album presentation for Albums Inc, International New Talent competition winner, and “Best Body of Work” at Art Across the River.

Beyond numerous awards Harris photography is held in numerous private collections and has been featured in local and national publications.

Originally self-taught Harris regularly attends lectures and workshops continuing to improve techniques for building a diverse portfolio of strong and compelling images. The subjects of Harris’ photography is varied and multi-faceted and a continual growing experience. Images in her collection include landscape, still life, flora, location, and travel. “I always look for detail and intimacy which is so often missed, spending time in an area or with a subject to achieve the most interesting points of view. The actual subject matter of the images may vary but the approach to capturing essence and telling a story is constant.” Utilizing patience, perception, composition and opportunity to freeze a moment in time results in images designed to move and stimulate the senses and emotions of the viewer.

Harris is currently scheduling exhibits which will be announced here and on her website

As well as continually creating new images, Harris has developed a series of photography classes for those who are interested in learning the potential that lies within their camera and within themselves. The participants will learn to control aperture, shutter, light and composition along with detailed explanations of the technical and creative possibilities of photography. The classes will also explore the works of master photographers, and the students will critique their assignments to gain a deeper understanding of the many facets and components of creating an image.

Harris also donates her photographic services to charitable causes which has included ARC, March of Dimes, Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep, the National Organization of Charitable Photographers, “Make Someone Smile”; and also welcomes new inquiries.
