about elizabeth

Hi! I am an upbeat photographer and love what I do – I document loved ones and cherished memories. Not such a bad gig..

My formal education in art influences the way I see and record life. I am always aware of light, environment, the subject, mood and how they all relate to each other. My artistic style is a mix of photojournalistic and creative – I enjoy capturing candid moments along with slowing down to focus on meaningful details. This includes making gorgeous portraits with personality.

A lot of my inspiration comes from historic and contemporary art portraiture, as well as fashion magazines and television. One of the things I love most about my job is being located in New England. There is so much beauty here – we have amazing beaches, charming historic town centers and homes, rustic farmlands, dramatic lakes and quarries, romantic woods and open fields. I try to choose places that create the perfect backdrop for scenic portraits. If you would like suggestions for a location for your session, I am more than happy to share some of my favorite places.

Please browse through my blog and galleries to get a sense of my style. If you like what you see, I encourage you to contact me to set up a consultation. You can email me at info@elizabethclarkphoto.com, call (617) 945-0743, or fill out my contact form. I work out of my studio office located in the heart of Huron Village, Cambridge, so please feel free to stop by some time to say hello, enjoy a cup of coffee, and see some pretty photos. The address is 362 Huron Avenue – right between Grey Mist Studio and Fresh Pond Market.

I hope to hear from you soon:)

Elizabeth, a native of the Boston area, was introduced to photography in high school and immediately caught the “darkroom bug”. She continued her passion by majoring in Fine Art at Amherst College and completing her MFA at the School of Visual Arts in 2010. While in graduate school, she began her thesis project, Libert & Company, which documents her own family. Photographs from Libert & Company have been exhibited in group shows nationally, including at the Michael Foley Gallery in New York City and Boston University’s Photographic Resource Center. Her first solo show was in 2012 at NESOP (New England School of Photography) in Boston.

Elizabeth was named a Photo District News Annual Student Winner in 2010 and Magenta Foundation’s Flash Forward Emerging Photographer in 2011. Her work has been featured in blogs such as the New Yorker Photobooth, Little Bellows, Style Me Pretty, Light Inspired, Hey Hot Shot!, Lenscratch, and LPV Magazine, and will be published in Peter Hay Halbert’s upcoming book, Identities Now – Contemporary Portraiture in Photography.
