Bethany Jones Baker

In everyday life, people too often loose perspective on what is really important.  they can get caught up in their goals and while doing whatever it takes to achieve them, create a tunnel-vision based life.  It is almost as if they can only see what matters to them, while disregarding anything else.


But what would happen if they were to take a step back, to slow down and gain a larger perspective?  This is what I attempt to capture in my photography; to show the world with a larger, more meaningful purpose.  Where something as simple as a coffee cup can tell a story.  Where a moment can touch the soul in so many ways, that often times cannot be expressed.


This can be the challenge of photography.  Trying to technically express or convey how a moment of simplistic beauty can be quite the task.  I aim to move the viewer's soul in the very way that these moments I have captured once moved me.


When you are able to remove the superficial facades of everyday life and view the world as it truly is, I promise you will be in awe in the beauty and truth you will witness.  As Ansel Adams once said, "My world has been a world too few people are lucky enough to live in -- one of peace and beauty.  I believe in beauty.  I believe in stones and water, air and soil, people and their future and their fate."
