About

Xandra is a 3rd generation native of Arizona. She is inspired primarily by old architecture, relics and cemeteries. A Self taught photographer with a unique vision to share, she enjoys exploring historical sites. (i.e.: old mining towns, graveyards and structures of architectural interest)

Xandra uses digital photography with minimal, if any, modifications through editing software, thus the purity of the original photos are preserved. Xandra enjoys the “sport” capturing of a photograph using only the camera settings. “Sport”, as defined by her is the art of getting the shot against challenges and obstacles such as visual background distractions, lighting etc. A high value is placed on the integrity of the original photo therefore; you may find that some of her images contain limitations of the camera and natural obstructions. These are purposefully left in tact as to convey honesty versus editing practices.
