I'm the #1 fan of Claudia Susana, and I'm proud to say that out loud. I've known Claudia for several years, and throughout the entirety of her photographic career. I've been fortunate enough to watch her passion develop from a beautiful hobby into meaningful art of the highest and most memorable caliber. Claudia possesses a unique eye for composition and serendipity, where each piece is not only exact and precise, but also seemingly timed as to capture the truest nature of the moment or subject itself. Every image is a window into an oneiric landscape populated by beautiful people, heroes and princesses all, intersecting and transversing the world in which we live. They are wondrous vistas and twilight fancies, far more beautiful than reality and yet completely relatable, sympathetic, and comfortingly familiar, like coming home from a long journey to find everything you have ever loved and longed for, waiting to greet you upon your return. Every face is human, every feeling is real. Every moment exists in that perfectly suspended second of time where possibility is endless. It is impossible to view these works without finding one's heart moved or touched; there is so much love given in her photography that it resonates deeply and lastingly, like a piano chord, struck by some whimsical spectre in an empty theatre in the middle of the night. The body of work taken as a whole is impressive; the real magic is in the level of depth and detail within each piece itself. The vision, the little secrets, the messages that speak in languages only for the soul-- the open-ended stories that draw in the beholder with feather-soft subtlety and heart-aching sincerity. Many photographers who work primarily in digital media rely heavily on processing techniques, worshiping at the altar of Photoshop to create art from mediocrity-- ultimately resulting only in shinier mediocrity. Claudia's usage of processing is judicious and clever, and never distracting; these are images, strong enough to stand on their own, merely enhanced by the painstaking touch of a whimsical and fanciful mind. There is genuine love in this work, and it shines through like a beacon. From Claudia and her enchanting, captivating art, I find myself woven and wound in worlds of wonder; deep, ethereal magic that astonishes daily and is always rewarding. These are worlds in which I am fortunate to live, and always happy to visit, to escape to, and always to deeply admire. The best photographer is one who can draw beauty from the subject while infusing new beauty from within the soul of the artist; Claudia's work is representative of a brilliance, a wealth of talent, where not only does she find beauty in any subject or model, but also traces a delicate signature that is ever unmistakable. Listen to her stories. Visit these worlds. This is magic, and the world is a better place for it. Thank you, Claudia.

No recuerdo exactamente cómo llegué a la galería de Claudia por primera vez. Sin embargo, recuerdo claramente que quedé atrapado por la delicada belleza de sus colores. Las fotos de Claudia no paran de hablar; son una fuente constante de inspiración y dulzura. Ella sabe cómo capturar un momento que no existe, que no está realmente allí. Su fotografía es una fotografía de lo posible. Es difícil saber de dónde proviene esa luz mágica que proyecta en su trabajo, pero si se sigue el rastro que deja su luz llegamos a un mundo regulado por las mismas leyes que ordenan los sueños. Esperanza, amor y dulzura... Las fotos de Claudia no muestran el mundo tal como es, sino tal y como debería ser, lo cual es más bello aún. Su mirada refleja la calidez de su mundo interior y para mí resulta un honor haber conocido a Claudia a través de su trabajo. ¿Acaso hay una manera mejor de conocer a alguien?

These two are beyond words. (but I will try and capture their style in words anyways) Every picture is completely interesting and new and they are never afraid to experiment.
