Danielle Austen

Hillsborough, NJ, USA
My nature photography reflects a desire to capture and record the many tranquil aspects of my journeys that are often missed by the casual observer. As a documentary fine artist trained both in photojournalism and in the fine arts, I am bound to seek honesty in my subjects and to communicate the spirituality of the moment. I focus on documenting intimate portraits and unexpected views of the landscape…and to tell their story. I search for what many may see as ordinary and discover the extraordinary.
