I took this photo on a field trip to San Francisco with my photography class.

Photography to me is a reflection of reality.

I used a large sun hat, two apples, a lemon, grapes, and two clothespins.

My jellyfish picture was taken at the Aquarium of the Bay.

Creating photographs is a way for me to un-isolate myself, a way for me to connect with people.

My artistic process involves me placing myself in situations with the highest chance of achieving an exceptional photograph.

I was going to Stinson beach with my family on a very cloudy day, the sun wasn't out and the water was cold so I decided to take a stroll down the beach.

I took this photo at Lands End in San Francisco.

I took this photo of a Galapagos Lava Heron fishing in a calm tide pool while on vacation with my family.

There was not much of a process, but over the summer my family and I went on a trip to Ethiopia, and Eritrea

My name is Cecily H. and I love the magic that comes from both digital and film photography.

June 2022. We had just arrived at my friend's cabin near Lake Almanor, a couple of hours away from Lake Tahoe.

As I raised my camera to my eyes and fired the shutter that afternoon, I captured something special.

This photo was taken down a hallway at Herbst Theater.

During a night photography shoot in downtown San Francisco, I came across this window of a restaurant where someone had drawn a heart on.

"An Artist's Aura" is a photo I took while at a concert of one of my favorite bands, Interpol. The concert was held at the Greek Theatre, and the lighting was absolutely insane.
