Simmons Art And Photography

Who am I?

My name is Davette J. Glover, I currently reside in Tampa, FL and I am in love with Photography. I showed an interest in Photography since I was really young. I was always the kid with the camera. I would use up all the film my mom would buy for her instant camera. I would continue my amateur camera experience all through high school. When I started taking courses through my local community college I finally took my first photo class. That experience opened a whole world for me and I would say that's when the love affair started. After that I went to complete my BFA degree in Photography at SUNY New Paltz. There I developed skills such as subject matter, lighting, composition and other technical skills. After graduating I went to graduate school at RIT (Rochester Institute of Technology). While working on my MFA in Fine Art Photo, I learned how to convey what I wanted to express as a Artist through my work. I learned further subject theory and more technical skills. Since then I have put my skills to use and continued my passion as a professional freelance photographer. I have shot many weddings, events and other assignments...

What is my style of Photography?

My Photography is about capturing that one moment in time and creating a visual interpretation of that moment. Being a fine artist, I dwell on creative side of things and how to see those images in a different light. I am experienced in a vast amount of subject matter, such as weddings, portraits, landscapes and nature.

I love working with both film and digital medium. I still do a lot of tradional darkroom work with some of the process being completed in photoshop for the end result.
