Changing My Ways:
I always found a quasi-direct correlation between how physically free and uninhibited I felt to my flow of creative freedom. Being bogged down by equipment or committed to one location due to my tripod being setup often stifled my creativity. After years of shooting with the heavy full frame Canon system, lugging up mountains two camera bodies, three lenses and a tripod, it was time to say enough! Don’t get me wrong, my Canon was a workhorse and the lenses performed beautifully. However, I felt that the time was right to go back to my early days when I was travelling with a small camera that could fit into my day pack and wander, just wander and be enchanted again by little (or big) details I saw along the way. The details that when having my heavy gear on my back would make me think twice about pulling out my camera, or even consider taking it with me!

Sharon Tenenbaum was educated as a Civil Engineer in Israel, and practicing as a Professional Engineer in Vancouver Canada. In late 2007 she made a decision to part from engineering in order to pursue her passion for photography after being inspired by a life-changing journey to South East Asia. Her passion for photography started with street photojournalism, yet combined with her original background as a Civil Engineer, her work covers a wide gamut of subject matter from ‘in the moment’ Photojournalism to Fine Art Architectural Photography which is a perfect marriage of her engineering and artistic sides. In a relative short period she has managed to define an artistic direction and distinctive style in her work, acquiring international recognition in the process. Sharon has numerous fine art international awards and her work has been published in several magazines including National Geographic. As a Photographer, Tenenbaum is a self-taught artist, having learned her craft through personal research and practical experience behind the camera. In her work she incorporates a Long Exposure technique to expand the expressive dimensions of her art. Although an artist at heart, Sharon enjoys teaching and sharing with others her photography techniques and vision. She teaches Fine Art Photography Workshops around the world and has produced two video tutorials and written two ebooks. One on ‘How to Create Long Exposure Fine art Photography’ and the second: ‘Left & Right Brain, A photographers understanding of these mindsets and how the affect our visual interpretation of art’.
