Arcadian Images

...To truly SEE a flower one dances with the Infinite...

Ree grew up in Northern Wisconsin freely roaming the woods and creeks near her home. Following animal tracks, listening to birds, getting to know the plants and flowers, and discovering other secrets in the wilds were passions that continue today.

After pursuing photography as a B&W photo lab technician and freelance photojournalist in the early ‘80s, Ree picked the camera up again in 2002…the digital age had finally produced cameras capable of making the type of images she’s passionate about. Her studies of flowers invite us to visit the rich micro worlds around us…places we seldom experience in our busy lives.

Often Ree enlarges her fine art flower studies up to 20x30 inch sizes so we can experience the detail found in the heart of a bloom. She enjoys working with natural light and f-stops to create her images, sometimes touching on the ethereal.

Ree works with two cameras: a Canon 5D with 100mm macro, 17-40mm, 75-300mm, and 100-400mm lenses; a Konica/Minolta A2 camera with macro function on the lens.
