In this quiet nature photography, the viewer can find a place of contemplative solitude, giving them a point of meditation & peace. Images promote an appreciation for the natural world and encourage environmental conservation. The photographer blends abstract expressionism & minimalism, creating “Simple Images for Complex Times”.

Digital editing is kept to basics: color, contrast, sharpening & cropping. All presented work is archival. Printing done by artist on luster paper. Matting, mounting & framing performed by artist.

I use high end photographic cameras and lenses. My work is centered around capturing interesting light and subject matter that is striking and engaging to those who view each image. Each tells a story and I include one for each piece I exhibit. Most all images in my exhibit are printed on ChromaLuxe and include rear mounted aluminum shadow frames. They are available during the show in several sizes. I also offer my images printed on TrueLife acrylic, archival canvas or archival matted paper prints. Images come numbered in a series collection of 250 images. I have a large number of very popular images including many from Minnesota as well as other locations around the U.S. and the world. I sell images in common as well as custom sizes. I ensure I have formats and sizes with prices to meet the needs of those attending and purchasing art during events I exhibit. Art is created to be shared and enjoyed. My goal is to offer a wide variety and make it available to all who wish to purchase.

I create fine art photographs featuring Barbie and Ken dolls.

To put it simply: I’m a Minneapolis photographer with a mild obsession with Barbie. Influenced by imagery from the 50s and 60s, I create scenes with the dolls in studio that have a sense of whimsy mixed with a little sarcasm. To me, Barbie is a positive, strong and empowering figure and I try to utilize her to create conversation. And to answer your question, I only have around 40 dolls.

2019 booth #67A 

Digital photos on canvas in sizes up to 4x9 feet capturing Twin Cities magic and nostalgia.  
We complete every step of the process ourselves, from image capture, to inkjet print production, final matting, mounting, and framing – all with archival acid free components. Most photos are printed on canvas, some on metal or acrylic, hand sealed with a uv protectant and waterproof preservative then hand stretched. We always use the utmost care, professional equipment, and attention to detail. We want our audience to enjoy viewing our finished product as much as we enjoy producing it.

2018 booth #7B

I print my digitally captured photos using archival inks and paper, and then transfer the image onto a wood panel that I have built using only reclaimed wood. The image melts into the wood and cracks, giving it an aged appearance. I intend my artwork to feel nostalgic and comfortable for the viewer.

2019 booth #

I travel the USA and the world in search of compelling landscapes to capture photographically. My images are then printed using pigment inks on heavy watercolor paper, whose edges are then deckled, and the prints float-mounted into hand-made maple frames made by me; and finally, varnished for protection.
My work is an evolution is seeing quiet beauty, in out of-the-way places. I am continually refining my vision.

2017 booth # 32A

I hand print my photographs on fiber paper and mount them onto painted birch panels. I add lacquer, UV coating and hand pour resin over the whole piece. This adds depth and a clean finish. I also hand transfer my photos onto white marble. The paper is removed and I add multiple layer of acrylic to the surface. Cork is then added to the back. These can be used as coasters or small pieces of affordable art.

2017 booth #.

Most of my photographs were taken in the moving clouds and mist, which result in strong pictorial effects. They express the exquisite and tranquility of nature. I try to merge the tradition with the modern, the East with the West. The more you look at my works, the more you will enjoy them and relax yourself.

All my works are produced using traditional photography techniques and tools. Some of my works are combinations of two or three negatives. I have tried to show in my works special atmosphere, best pictorial layout accurate colors. Rich layers and finest framing.

2023 Booth #103

Jamie Heiden lives in the beautiful Driftless area of western Wisconsin. For as long as she can remember, she has been a collector of images. She stores them in her mind; she captures them with her camera. For her, pictures really can tell a story. Life’s simplicity is her inspiration and conveying that story is her goal. 

Jamie is a photographer first. But when she sits down at her computer, the beginnings unfold. Her finished images contain multiple photographic layers using tasks once performed in the darkroom, now tools she has at her fingertips on the computer.  What would have taken hours years ago can be done and then undone in half the time, not necessarily making the completed process any shorter but allowing for ten times the amount of experimenting within.  

All of her work contains multiple photographic layers combined digitally. She works on each individual layer.  Of course all images are Jamie's and no filters are used in the process. The end result is an image ever-so-slightly removed from traditional photography.

My photographs are created using a variety of basic equipment including a digital camera, various lenses and always a tripod. However, my latest body of botanical images has been created in studio using a full quite of strobe lighting and a precision screw driven macro rail for focus stacking. Images created this way allow for extreme detail and focus control and involve shooting and stitching together up to 200 individual captures. Software is used to assist with the final stacking.

 Nature and still life photographs offered on paper and canvas. I perform all steps of the process!
