Amber Ortolano
Drag to set position!
I am passionate about photography and film-making, and I revel in experimenting with colors, light, and layers within my art. Fascinated by the inner workings of our mind, I often explore the unknown and the illusion of images our eyes create. I strive to tell a story, a narration of a small part of someones life; even if it is just for a second. I think a lot of my photographs are connected in a way; they all have the same story, but each time I take a new photograph, a different part of the story comes alive.
