"I've captured a moment, mixing together the colours and textures of nature, to create a passionate and unique memory of that moment, as is."
Ingrid Saaliste is an internationally known award winning Ontario-based photographer specializing in wildlife and florals,along with expressive land and waterscapes. She believes that experiencing nature's beauty has the power to nourish and unify us on both an emotional and spiritual level. The current that underlies her artwork is the concept of preservation. She makes every effort to visually capture the true reality of nature in its natural habitat. Objectively, her quest is to find the unseen in the visible and aesthetically present it to the viewer. This she believes, is the essence of photography. Her fine art prints combine tranquil settings, vivid colours and a unique perspective of the environment.
Ingrid resides in Honey Harbour, Ontario, Canada on the beautiful shores of Georgian Bay. A graduate of the New York Institute of Photography, she has exhibited in Frankfurt, Germany; Denver, Colorado; Charleston, South Carolina; Winnipeg, Manitoba and all over Ontario. Her photographs hang in private, government and corporate collections worldwide. Also, Ingrid adjudicates photo contests, and has been published in Camera Arts Magazine.
