Anne Walker

I have been in love with photography since I was in high school. As soon as I processed that first roll of Tri-X in the Fort Hunt High School darkroom, I was hooked. I pursued photography at Hampshire College but after graduating followed my second love, working as a pastry chef, as my career.   After many years working in the kitchen, I finally had the opportunity to return to the world of photography.

Now, at a completely different stage in my life, photography gives me the opportunity to express myself in a unique and powerful way. I photograph from the perspective of a woman, a mother, and a person who has the gift of some years under her belt.

I am a San Francisco-based photographer who is still shooting film and printing in the darkroom.

My work is about the traces of what we leave behind, whether it is our childhood or the remains of a building, it is about the continuous march of time and the ephemeral nature of life.

Photography has always enabled me to share what I find beautiful and fascinating in this world. Capturing  that which is fading away enables me to explore and record the beauty that may not be there the next time I look.
