In 2008, she started her freelance career and subsequently moved to La Paz, Bolivia. Awards in 2010 include Voies – Off winner, Berenice Abbot Emerging Photographer finalist, Magenta Forward winner, Julia Margaret Cameron Award runner up,  The PDN Emerging Photographer, and her work was published in The Fader, TIME magazine, GEO, Internazionale, Private Photo Review, The Sun Magazine, Marie Claire, The Australian Financial Review and The Sydney Morning Herald.

Lisa Wiltse wins Grand Prize Award

January 18th, 2011 Comments Off

AIB alumna Lisa Wiltse was awarded the Grand Prize Award of the International photography competition ONE LIFE.

One Life Project Announcement:

Congratulations to the Grand Prize Award recipient, photographer Lisa Wiltse from Weston, Connecticut! Her aim is to create photographs “that are intimate yet strong in narrative, and that gives voice to those previously overlooked.”

Lisa’s images document a community of Mennonites living in Manitoba, Bolivia, where horse-drawn buggies, manicured lawns and planted fields reflect a quiet, religiously inspired way of life. She captures the Mennonites of Manitoba in their everyday lives, struggling to erase a recent painful past and existing in communal isolation. We thank her for bringing us a vision into their world. Keep an eye out for her in PDN Magazine, and in the meantime, view her portfolio here.

PLASTIC FOREST | NYT OP-ART

April 25th, 2010 § Leave a Comment

AIB alumn Bryan Graf was recently featured in the New York Times OP-ART.


From the sereies Roadside Wildflowers
Photographs copyright Bryan Graf

These are photographs of plastic bags that I pulled from trees and shrubs in the woods near my home in New Jersey. To make these pictures — photograms — I took the bags into my darkroom and gently dropped them between my enlarger’s lens and a piece of light-sensitive paper. I then illuminated the scene with a flash of light for less than a second. The resulting images trace the objects gliding in the air moments before they come to rest. Like Earth Day, they are for me a prompt to reflect on the relationship — sometimes vexed, sometimes beautiful, always complicated — between humankind and nature.
