Photographer Focus: Helena Pogreb Carter




The moment I saw Helena's photography it was love at first sight. She's a master of composition, often placing her subjects in interestingly obscure and beautiful locations. Therefore it shouldn't surprise you that she's actually an architect, go figure. Pattern and repetition are her best friends. Check her out on Flickr, and read a brief Q&A with the artist below.
