MAXI TU 葉
BORN IN TAIPEI, BASED IN SEATTLE.
Painting was my first love, film photography is my new crush, and the art of documentation is a generational family practice passed down to me.
My photography style is largely informed by my background as a contemporary Fine Art painter. I studied Fine Arts at Scripps College and earned my MA in Art Education at the Rhode Island School of Design. My photos are often described as artful and poetic. I am drawn to minimalist and captivating compositions that make the viewers feel and contemplate deeply.
What sets me apart as a photographer is my multicultural 눈치, editorial aesthetic and my uniquely relational creative process. My desire behind the camera is to create a comfortable and safe space to draw out your unique aura and beauty as Imago Dei, God's image bearers.
If any of these words resonate with you, it would be a huge privilege to be considered for your photoshoot needs. In the end, we all just want a few timeless images that capture seasons worthy to be remembered, framed and passed down to following generations.
"Our bodies hold memories; they tell stories – our history.
As a photographer, I humbly ask for permission to look closely,
and uncover that which most who lack intention cannot see."
