About Artist

Valerie Franc

I am based in Seattle, Washington. I had always been fascinated by the arresting and dramatic quality of Ansel Adams’ majestic black and white landscapes, and when I started teaching myself photography in the 2010s, I was originally drawn to minimalist B&W landscape and nature photography. As I became exposed to more types of photography, I became interested in photographing people and, strangely enough, in color. Before the pandemic, I worked on a project about Pike Place Market, one of the oldest continuously operated public farmers' market in the United States. I am now currently working on a series about the residents of Capitol Hill, in Seattle, and documenting their uniqueness.
