Sanita's Photography

Capturing the memories and the spot of light as I shot the picture. As a inspiration of Stephen Shore, living the moment of your picture is most important. The work of art, the showing of your opportunity and showing off your homage. Its about the experiences and the things you do every day. The photography of your aspirations.

Stephen Shore

Stephen Shore born October 8, 1947 is an American  photographer known for his scenes and objects in the United States, and for his use of color in art photograph. Stephen Shore was interested in photography from an early age. Shore self-taught, he received a photographic darkroom kit at age six from a forward-thinking uncle. His career began at the early age of fourteen, when he made the move of presenting his photographs to Edward Steichen. By then his photography was good enough to be at the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA). By the age 17 Shore had began photographing the activities of Andy Warhol's Factory; Shore was the first living photographer to have a one‐person exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum. In 1971, at the age of 24, Shore became the second living photographer to have a solo exhibition at the Metropoltian Museum of Art. His book published in 1982, "Uncommon Places" was a bible for the new color photographers because, alongside with William Eggleston, his work proved that a color photograph, like a painting or even a black and white photograph, could be considered a work of art. Shore is represented by 303 Gallery in New York; Spruth Magers in Cologne, Munich, and London; and Rodolphe Janssen in Brussels. Today Shore is the director of the photography department at Bard College, a position he has held since 1982.
