Poetry, travel and art all find their way into Estherscanon’s photographs, giving her work a romanticism that feels both atmospheric and sentimental. Southern California photographer Esther is particularly responsive to light, whether it is washing across a Parisian room or warming an Italian landscape, and uses it to give her images depth, softness and a hint of drama. Her compositions often have the suspended quality of a film still, as if the scene began before the shutter clicked and will continue after it. Esther's strongest frames often feel caught between reality and recollection, familiar yet slightly out of reach. - THE WED
