*BIO*
My name is Irene Suchocki, hence the "is" in isphotography. I am a self-taught photographer. I was born in Toronto, but moved to Montreal in 2001, and will be forever grateful to my high school French teacher.
I enjoy experimenting with different styles and techniques, both in-camera and in my digital darkroom. Faithfully capturing a scene is less important to me than finding that little bit of mystery or evoking a certain mood. I like to explore the ethereal, the surreal, the whimsical, the mysterious, and the beautiful. I enjoy creating little poems for the eyes.
My work has appeared on numerous book covers and I am honored that my artwork has found its way into private homes around the world.
I hope you find some delight in the images that I so enjoy creating.
