What you love most about taking and sharing photos? From the bugling Tule elk and the arrival of migratory birds in fall to the rolling green hills and the return of the elephant seals in winter, the blooming of wildflowers and the beginning of nesting season in spring or the mystical foggy mornings in the summer… there is something for everyone out there! Each season brings something exciting to explore and enjoy.

Favorite spot to shoot in Marin (that you’re willing to share) and why? To me, photography isn’t just about taking a picture, it’s also about capturing the essence of a moment, and eliciting emotions from the viewer. I fell in love with photography because it allows me to combine my artistic background with my fondness of the outdoors in a single space. I received my Bachelor of Arts degree in Illustration and Animation from San Jose State University, spent many magical years working in “a galaxy far, far away” at Lucasfilm, and currently serve on the board of directors for the Marin Audubon Society. And I can’t help but feel a deep sense of fulfillment from it.Įlyse Omernick, Larkspur, California What sparked your interest in photography?Īrt and nature have always been a part of my life, and hold a special place in my heart. A lot of photography is seeing the world through the photographer’s eyes. So I guess, I’ll just say that I love being able to share locations that are so special to me and my family, in my own unique way. Point Reyes and the Marin side of the Golden Gate Bridge have been family favorites for many years and now, are my current favorite locations in Marin to photograph. Many of which, I haven’t even photographed yet! A lot of special memories have been made. There are so many amazing places to see and photograph in Marin County. Those moments in time I have continued to freeze and the art has become something for me that I never imagined, an outlet for me to pursue both personally and professionally.

So, I started taking a photograph here and there when I would escape to San Francisco or Marin, so that I could have a memento and I guess, somewhat of a keepsake to look back on those escapes from reality. I had been struggling through many different stresses to live in the moment while I was in college and working my retail job. Photography started as an outlet for me to freeze moments in time, primarily in San Francisco and Marin County. What sparked your interest in photography?
