RitchVision Photography: My Vision of Our World in Your Hands



Wendy A. Ritch is the owner of RitchVision Photography. She is a member of way too many art orgs but adores them all. Wendy shows regularly and loves it (see exhibition schedule below).



Wendy is always adding new images so please check back often.



Here are a few little-known facts about Wendy:
* Loves to use photography to explore light and textures
* Is originally from Connecticut. And New York. And Massachusetts.
* Farthest photographic journey was to Alaska
* Is academically trained as a political philosopher and theologian
* Took a lengthy sabbatical from trying to be a singer/songwriter/guitarist when she realized she would never be Joan Baez
* Added “novelist” to her list of artistic pursuits, but the book isn't exactly writing itself
* Enjoys digital manipulation a little too much
* Occasionally forgets to experience life directly instead of through the lens of her camera
* Is herself a work-in-progress
