MY STORY

You're 10 years old. You pick up a camera. You shoot and shoot. You fall in love with this little mechanical box. You put the camera down.

Many years later you pick up a camera. You shoot and shoot. You're still in love. This time you don't put the camera down.

Hi. I'm Shira. I'm a Bay Area-based photographer and this is my story. 

In 2014, I returned to one of my earliest passions and haven't looked back. My aim through photography is to capture moments that tell an ongoing narrative of the places around us. Often, it's only through the passage of time that these pictures reveal their true beauty and poignancy. With a documentary approach, I am dedicated to creating meaningful images of the Bay Area and its surrounding landscapes.
