I'm a San Franciscan/French-Candian/Italian mutt who loves her trusty Nikon N60.

 

I believe comments and suggestions are a good thing - we're all trying to learn (or at least we all should be)

 

I feel that the "pro" symbol is a bit pretentious. What it really means is you shelled out 25 big ones for a better account - but that's just me.

 

I still shoot film (because I love it!). Many of my shots are of

 

- my "little" sister (and her horse Ouragan)

 

Giovanna BW version 2 Giovanna 3 Giovanna Giovanna

  

- my little niece:

 

Looking at the Tree Eating Sleeping 4-day old Little Face

  

- my two dogs Dolce (black Lab) and Rocky (Belgian Shepherd/Wolf):

 

Dolce Rocky Dolce and Rocky Big Stretch

  

- various items from my garden:

 

Grapefruit lemon blossoms new crop Lemons Red gerbera

  

- and random animals:

 

jellyfish2 Undecided PenguinS Parrots of Telegraph Hill 3 Harbor Seals 2

   

I also shoot alot in Kauai, the South of France (where my parents, sister and dogs live), Oakland (where I currently reside and grow to love more everyday), and of course my hometown, San Francisco.

  

I have a lot of fun experimenting with photography, and though I don't do it for a living I value constructive input that will help me improve.

I admire her work and though she comes from a line of great phtographers, I believe she is the one to be remembered for her ability to capture the best moments in life and immortalise them.

Alessandra has a natural eye for color, and is always willing to explore new subjects. I admire her love for film in a digital world, as well as her deep understanding of the medium. She is very creative, and picks up well on the often overlooked things in life.
