Much of her body of work involves water in some manner. Above or below, she is known for her expressive style. She explores the artistic possibilities photography has to offer and especially loves how water lends a new element to her subjects, be it in the reflection of a couple on a pond, blurred waves on a beach, fish in the sea or people in a pool. 

“Whether it’s photographing a person or place, my goal for every image is not just to tell a story, but to reveal its character. Photography brings out the best in me…. my motive as a photographer is to bring out the best in my subject.”

Lisa’s gear

Lisa uses a Nikon D300 with Ikelite housing and dual DS160 strobes. The green water images are made with a Tokina 10-17 and the blue water images are with a Tokina 12-24.
