A BIT ABOUT ME

A picture of Vanessa Burrowes, the photographer, in a stone archway on Taquile Island, Lake Titicaca, Puno, Peru.

Background

Hi there! My name is Vanessa Burrowes and though most of my life has been spent in the science realm, I have managed to capture some beautiful corners of this great wide world on my research escapades. Born in Lincoln, Nebraska, I have been fortunate to travel all over the world for both work and play and my camera has been a great companion throughout. I have entered my photos in a variety of travel photography competitions and won a few things along the way. I like to dabble in a mix of travel photography, maternity and newborn photography, portraits, and expand my repertoire as people and natural settings challenge me to expand my medium in all sorts of ways. I recently moved back to the United States and am currently based in Durham, North Carolina. Feel free to contact me via email for more information, if you'd like to buy any prints, or if you're interested in scheduling a photoshoot with me. Enjoy!
