SHAENA NEAL
Abstract, Portrait, Event Photographer in Louisville, KY
Shaena Neal Art & Photography
A seeker of light, beauty, and depth, I find myself drawn to concept-driven storytelling, compositional design, and expression. Though I am an artist primarily working with photographic imagery, I experiment with poetic writing, bookmaking, woodworking, among other mediums. If you are interested in my project-based work or seeing my CV, check out my website listed below. This profile is a taste of my abstract/travel portfolio, as well as portraiture and events.
With a trained eye, I am constantly inspired by the world and people around me – one of the many reasons I have an intense passion for travel. While the images I gather from around the globe could be considered “Travel Photography”, I consider it all to be a part of my artistry practice; the images take on my expression of the place rather than documenting the destination. Perhaps they are “Abstract Travel” or “Expressionist Travel”, but call it what you will.
Aside from all this time spent alone in my studio and wandering about, I love working closely with people to capture meaningful imagery that tells a story. As someone who thrives on one-on-one interactions, I get a lot of enjoyment from creating portraits that highlight personality or establish a character. From the opposite end of human interaction, I often capture events. From concerts and receptions to the Kentucky Derby, events give me the challenge I crave by always giving me something new to work with.
Finally, I do work in a team setting occasionally, which helps to supplement and inspire all this solo creative work. Assisting and/or acting as grip on commercial productions, I strive to be a team player and help the set move smoothly and beautifully.
When I’m not in my studio or working behind the camera, you will likely find me outside – hands in the dirt, hugging trees, and listening to birds – or consuming art of all kinds on dreary days. If you have any questions, or just want to chat about the philosophy of art and life, shoot me an email.
