My Bio
Emma Martinson graduated from Lawrence University in 2009 with a degree in English and a minor in music (emphasis on theory/composition).
Emma's passion for photography started alongside her passion for riding horses when she was 12 years old. She participated in photography through 4-H, and took her first photography classes as a senior in high school, using her own Pentax ZX-30 SLR. Her photography centered around horses until she entered college. She began shooting with a Pentax K10D D-SLR and Lensbaby lenses before taking two photography courses in college, under the instruction of photographers J. Shimon & J. Lindemann, who furthered her love of the darkroom and introduced her to photographic theory, view cameras, pinhole box cameras, cyanotype, and her favorite medium format camera, the Hasselblad.
Currently without a darkroom, Emma's photography is largely a passionate hobby, though she works for clients whenever possible. Her favorite tools include her D-SLR, Adobe Lightroom, and family of Lensbabies: 2.0 lens, Composer lens, and optic swap system.

I started it up a while ago, but I wanted to wait until I had some history with it before posting about it here...I now have a photoblog, hosted by blogger, where I (try to) post daily photos/artwork.
Because of my blog there, I'm going to use DA on a archival/gallery basis, showcasing only older works, or pieces that have already been posted on my blog. In other words, there are newer photos there than there are here.
So, go check it out please! Leave comments--I am open to (and encourage) critique as well as general comments.

'New' Photos

I've lately been putting up a few older photos of mine. I've had them around for a while, but I suppose they're new to you guys. So, enjoy!
I'll try to keep them coming at a fairly regular pace. I'll also have some non-equine related ones posted. I might take a break during the holiday weekend (I don't want to fuss with taking my external hard drive home, which currently houses all my old photos), so, there will be a week's break coming up.
I hope everyone has a happy Turkey day (or Tofurkey?). Anyway...Have a good one!

Snowy coldness makes me want to curl up on my futon with a cup of hot chocolate and watch a bunch of Doctor Who episodes.
My motivation was up this last weekend, and I actually got some writing done for my honor's project...which I'm now thinking I might not use as an honor's project. Too much work for something that is 1) not going to mean anything for me and 2) is transforming my ideas for the work as a novel so much I don't even recognize it anymore (and not in a good way). Arg.
Drawing's been going much nicer lately--I haven't needed to spend as much out-of-class time which makes my sanity happy. We've also started our sessions with a l
