Christine Mitchell was raised in Long Island, New York but has been a Pennsylvanian by choice for 38 years, 13 of them in the city of Reading. She specializes in black & white urban photography, street, and low key portrait photography.
" I try to capture the soul of my subject, whether it's a person, a flower or a city street. I like the photojournalistic method of telling the story in the natural setting. No words are necessary to convey the vitality and emotion of a city."
"City streets are alive with personality - during the day and at night. This collection of images from Harlem, NY and the immediate area reflect my mood on my last trip there. There had been a death in the family, and these pictures capture my desire to remember that environment and the bittersweet poignancy of the day."
In another aspect of her work, Christine's digital art portfolio runs the gamut from the natural to architectural perspectives and more avant garde street photography that emphasizes texture and contrast.
