My favorite photographers are Eugene Atget, Cartier-Bresson, Brassai, Harry Callahan, Andre Kertesz, Elliot Erwitt, Berenice Abbott, Diane Arbus, Gary Winogrand, and Cindy Sherman. Generally, my goal as a photographer is simple--to share moments that capture my eye and imagination and that, from my perspective, warrant a longer look. My main interest at this point is in photographing architecture and urban life, particularly in Brooklyn where I have lived my entire adult life. </span></span></span></span></p> <p><span style="font-size:16px;"><span style="font-family:trebuchet ms,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span class="marker">For information about purchasing prints or to contact me about teaching or photographing an event, email peberg1@hotmail.com.</span></span></span></p> </div> </span> </div> <div> Paula Berg Photography <script src="/js/js.js"></script> <script defer src="//assets.pinterest.com/js/pinit.js" data-pin-build="parsePinBtns"></script> </body>
