Welcome to Alison Perry Long Island Landscape Photography. My imagery is centered around landscape, light and the everyday, mostly by the sea on Long Island, NY. My interest in natural light and atmospheric space often lend cinematic, romantic and surreal overtones to subject matter.
The physical/cultural American landscape took precedence in my mindset early on. I've traveled the country a few times and lived in different parts of it, but several years ago on a trip back home to Long Island, I realized my own back yard is part of this vast American landscape. Though much of the familiar terrain and culture has changed or disappeared, some of the old flavor can still be found in places here and there, and alongside the new.
My background: photojournalism/editorial work: NY Times, Philadelphia Inquirer, LA Times, Jazz magazines & other publications in NYC, PA and CA.
BFA in Studio Art/Painting: SUNY Purchase
MSLIS in Library Science: Long Island University.
I sell/ship photographic paper, canvas, metal and acrylic prints in standard
& custom sizes to private individuals, corporate/nonprofit institutions and stock photo
agencies.
