MEET ELORA
Have you ever looked at the sky during a difficult moment and felt, even briefly, that what you were seeing was meant for you? A sunset, a cloud formation, a shooting star. Something that made you think, “That one was for me.”
That is the feeling that shaped my connection to the natural world.
I am drawn to how this place we call home reveals itself through light, color, and texture, and how these moments arrive exactly when we need them.
BEHIND THE LENS
Growing up, I often felt disconnected from myself and the world. I was present, but not fully there. Everything shifted when I picked up a camera.
Photography became the place where I felt real and in relationship with the world around me. Looking through the lens made me feel grounded, attuned, and part of something larger instead of separate from it.
When I sit with nature, I lose myself in its vastness, yet I also feel recognized by it. It is a paradox of being lost and found at the same time, and that experience is at the heart of my work.
My Purpose as an Artist
I create so that in a world that can feel overwhelming, my images offer a moment of reconnection.
There is a line from The Sound of Music that has stayed with me:
“My heart will be blessed with the sound of music,
and I’ll sing once more.”
That lyric captures the feeling I return to when I create. Nature has a way of meeting us where we are and reminding us of our place in the world. My hope is that through my work, you feel that same sense of being both held and renewed — lost and found in the beauty of our world.
“For in truth, you are not separate from the world. You are the world, experiencing itself through your unique perspective.”
