Amalia began her exploration in photography while on a trip to Europe working for a student travel organization in the late ‘60s. Originally Amalia’s focus was in black and white photography and print making and although she began photographing “the world” in black and white, she moved to color film and digital photography during the last several years.

Amalia, as both potter and photographer, has a keen eye for color and form. She finds natural and hidden details in places most others miss, revealing an unexpected glimpse of beauty through her lens. She has the ability to see and capture images of flowers and other natural forms in an intuitive way that reveals an inner almost other worldly dimension in her final prints. Her macro floral prints have been compared to the paintings of Georgia O’Keefe.

Amalia’s photographic journey includes study at the School of Visual Arts, NYC, the University of Vermont, and numerous workshops and private instruction. She regularly displays her work in regional shows and has exhibited in galleries throughout the northeast. Her work is in private collections around world. DaySpring, a subsidiary of Hallmark Publishing, featured a collection of photos from her portfolio of flower prints for their 2004 calendar, “Expressions of His Love.” Her 2009 calendar, published by Tidemark, can be ordered through her web site. Her photojournalism work has been published in several international publications.

Amalia is developing a growing fine art photography market with corporate and private collectors. Working with owners, interior designers and architects, she provides framed fine art photography to enhance the interior design and esthetic of her corporate and private clients’ interiors. Her desire is to bring the intrinsic beauty of the natural world and all its wonder into the homes and offices of her patrons.
