Though she started out as a news photographer, Diane began doing
gallery-quality art photography while living in the
San Juan Islands.
Around the time she switched to the digital camera, she came
to realize there was a strong spiritual dimension to her work,
and in 2005 she began developing the photographic meditations
that now appear in her traveling exhibit, A Contemplative
Photographer¹s Alphabet. That exhibit, which has been on
display in the Episcopal Diocese of Michigan and the Episcopal
Diocese of Texas, is now available in book form from Blurb.com.
Diane’s photographs and meditations reflect her years of study
with Cynthia Bourgeault and emerge out of her daily practice
of Centering Prayer and Lectio Divina. She is presently
developing two additional books — a series of photographic
meditations on the Gospel of Thomas and a set of photographic
meditations for Advent.
She continues a daily practice of photographic meditation at
her contemplative photography and contemplative poetry blogs.
She is a regular contributor to the ECVA Image & Spirit blog.
Her work has been published in numerous newspapers and
journals, and her photographs are available in local galleries
on Bainbridge Island, off the coast of Seattle. |
