Susan Barmon

"Photographer Susan Barmon captures natural and man made objects with the lens and transforms them into something more than still life. Her photographic "documentaries," too, give viewers a glimpse into  

settings they would otherwise never experience." --Karen M. Lazarus, BFA, CSA Journal   

Ellen Jantzen

Ellen Jantzen is the featured photographer for the March/April 2011 issue of the online magazine, Ragazine. The article includes work from her latest series and from work completed in 2010.

"Credulity" � Ellen Jantzen

"The web is filled with a wealth of photographic material, some charming, some 'anyone could do', some that takes you by the shoulders and shakes you awake, some that puts you to sleep. Ellen Jantzen's photographs call you back, like the memory of an event you can't shake - images that cling, bringing to mind past events, and casting light on an unknown and mysterious future." --Ragazine Magazine
