Jun 9 q+a | elizabeth soule.

Today's Forest Finds Q+A is with the very intuitive photographer Elizabeth Soule who has created her own 'Little Zoo'. I am astonished at her ability to put so much personality + life into such small plastic objects. Thank you Elizabeth!
When you were a kid what did you want to be when you grew up?
Like most kids I went through a dozen phases, but I was determined at age 6 to be a Harvard law graduate and eventually President of the United States. When I found out how much I loathed politics, I moved on to more practical aspirations; ballerina, actress, teacher, and computer programmer.
What part of photography/the creative process is the most challenging for you?
Keeping things fresh and original is always a challenge. I will collect a few subjects each week to photograph, but sometimes they hang out on my toy shelf or next to my computer for a month or two before I'm ready to photograph them. I want each photograph to be my own view, my own idea of each subject.
What does the rest of '08 hold for you?
This year I officially started working on my photography full time. I have a new series that I plan to release this summer as well as some new additions to the Little Zoo. I am working on a few other photography projects that are different from my Polaroid work. I hope to have these completed by the end of the year.
Coming to fawn&forest June 16th: Squirrel on Nuts by E.Soule!
