Paulette A. N. Mortimer's passion for photography ignited during her college years when she was about to embark on studying foreign languages, particularly French. It was a serene morning as she traveled to the airport in Nassau, Bahamas, and witnessed a breathtaking scene - a rocky beach lined with silhouetted homes, with the sky painted in layers of orange, yellow, and pink hues reflecting on the water. This moment became a pivotal part of her journey, sparking a desire to capture such beauty through her lens.
Her journey into the world of fine art photography began with courses in handcoloring, handtoning, pinhole photography, and experimenting with various printing processes. Paulette delved into the digital realm through studies in computer imaging, where she learned to use Adobe Photoshop and honed her skills in color photography. The opportunity to explore Studio & Lighting Techniques and participate in a month-long Photography course in Paris further enriched her knowledge and passion for photography and foreign languages, creating a perfect blend of her interests.
Paulette's gallery showcases her photography, with most images captured on film and some developed using oil paints or toned for optimal quality and creativity. Each photograph reflects her unique self-expression, whether through adjustments to contrast or alterations in color. Based in the sunny islands of The Bahamas, Paulette has been pursuing photography as a side passion for several years and is now delving deeper into the art form. Whether scanning negatives in Adobe Photoshop or using an enlarger in a darkroom, she is dedicated to capturing moments of beauty and sharing them with the world.
