I have tons of bee balm [Monarda] growing in my yard and enjoy seeing the flowers at all stages of bloom.

I mostly photograph natural and rural landscapes, with special attention to the odd and macabre. I use a Sony Alpha 57 dSLR camera, or my cell phone, both of which I’m continually still learning to use. You can also find me on Facebook at Emily Stark Photography.

Many photos shown here are available as prints or as small notecards. Feel free to contact me with any questions about purchasing prints, or follow me on Facebook to find information about where my work is available for purchase.
