Marjorie is a fine art photographer and an active member in the Metro West art scene. A member of the Franklin Art Association and the Mansfield Music & Art Association, her works have received numerous awards in art shows and exhibits.
Photography has been her passion since receiving her first camera, a Brownie, at the age of ten. She painted in oils for several years, but eventually returned to her first love, photography. Though no longer working in oils, that experience is reflected in her photographs, which have often been mistaken for paintings.
Marjorie loves photographing the beauty and power of nature, the intricate landscape of cities, the joy of living, and finding the large in the small: streets that invite viewers to walk down them, doors that beckon people inside, the colorful splash or eloquent grace of a flower, the small details that are worlds in themselves. She seeks to capture moments in time that evoke a sense of timelessness. Her artistic, impressionistic approach to photography invites viewers to enter a world that rouses and rewards their interest. She believes, as did Conservationist John Muir, that we all need beauty to nourish our souls as we need bread to feed our bodies. Art, in all its forms, has the power to heal, renew and strengthen our spirit.
A New England native, Marjorie has photographed extensively in the Northeastern US, and in Western Europe. Through photography courses taken at Boston College, and her early experience with black-and-white photography, she came to love the process of creating a finished photo from a negative in the darkroom, skills she now applies to her photographs in her “digital darkroom”.
Her photographs are available as prints, on note cards, and bookmarks.

News about Marjorie’s art:
Lovely images… “Awash in Color” tells a story of that location… You should publish a book with your stories of how you came to take those photographs- as in the FAA presentation of your work earlier this year (the link for which can be found on FAA YouTube Channel as well as its Facebook page!) Can’t wait to see what work you’ll next be creating!
Thank you Susan for your words of affirmation concerning my photographic work. I love your suggestion that I consider writing a book about the stories behind my photographs. Definitely will consider it!
