Photography by Angela Cook
Life is but a swiftly moving series of moments. I like to slow them down and freeze the most precious moments in time to look back on over and over again. I’d love to capture your special moments. I am a lifestyle photographer, specializing in photojournalistic documentary-style event photography and location portraits.
Photography is a major part of my existence. I enjoy sharing the beauty and simplicity of life with the world. A photograph allows the viewer a unique and personal perspective that they might not otherwise experience. It allows a glimpse into the mind and soul. Something as small as a petal on a flower and something as large as a vista that goes on for miles can equally bring about a wide range of emotions in the viewer. My goal is to share moments and visions with the world, allowing them a glimpse into a deeper part of life and provide them with something they can smile about or reflect on. I hope you enjoy what you see. As they say, art is in the eye of the beholder. My only wish is that you see the joy that my craft brings to me, the fulfillment it brings to my life, and maybe a smile will creep across your face, a feeling of tranquility will descend upon your soul. Life passes us by too fast… slow down, sit back, and enjoy the journey.
Just wanted to congratulate you for your work on the Memorial Day festivities. It has been over 50 years since I have been in town over the holiday. Your essay brought tears to my eyes and wonderful memories. Thank you.
