ABOUT THE PHOTOGRAPHER

Shola Lawson is a photographer living in NE Portland. Her work is influenced by her own teenage experiences with style, boys, body image, and trying to fit into the suburbs of Portland. She has a special knack for finding those fleeting scenes that later define an era. She shoots primarily with her Pentax k1000 and Mamiya 645, but also maintains an active Instagram account under @shotbyshola. Shola holds a BA in Art and Women’s Studies from Portland State University and is currently studying at the Sogetsu School of Ikebana.
