Sarah Maingot

Sarah Maingot is one of my very favorite photographers.  I am amazed with her abilities to convey softness with concentrated use of color and to make a statement with subtle or no color.  I think the contradictions in photography are what separate novices from professionals.  I happily struggle with it everyday.










My adventures into this big, beautiful world of photography has taught me so much and inspired me in countless ways.  Sarah Maingot is a reminder of all I have to learn.
