KODAK EASY SHARE PROGRAM
Featured Photographers

Amy Postle, New York City

The camera was a little hard for me to get used to, being a film-only kind of a girl. It took a day of playing to really "get" the camera and become comfortable enough to get creative with it. Once I did, I was thrilled with the results!

I love the spontaneity it enabled me to have while shooting around NYC! The B&W setting and ability to shoot at speeds up to 1600 really allowed me to stay true to my personal vision as a photographer. Contrast, exposure and color are surprisingly realistic, even with skin tones, and the large touch screen is amazing! These are the qualities that enabled me to relax and enjoy the camera without become uptight about not shooting film. As a result, it was a very fun and energetic week!

A BIG thank you to WIPI and Kodak for this opportunity! It was a honor and pleasure to be chosen for the project! Not only do I have a new, fun camera, but I have an entirely new body of work that I love!

Carrie Villines, Brooklyn, NY

I moved to New York in June 2005. Coming from Los Angeles where I'm accustomed to traveling alone in my car, I have been fascinated with the variety of people I encounter on the subway. My interactions on the subway feel very intimate yet very anonymous. This is what I tried to capture for the Kodak project. Using the Easy Share One was great for this purpose because it's so small and inconspicuous.

Thank you to Women In Photography for providing this wonderful opportunity.

Natascha Unkart, San Francisco


One of the results of me partnering up with a little camera, that fits in my pocket, was reassessing my relationship with the city, both as flaneuse and voyeuse. being attached to a camera at all times allowed me to put the familiar in a new perspective, such as recreating new meaning of language in the public space.

Yvonne De Rosa, London

My aim is to show the diversity of London. I started my project taking pictures of the most iconic places of the city, showing how they really are in everyday life. I then concentrated my attention on the heterogeneity of the people of London, which in my opinion is what makes this city so distinct and unique. The very last pictures of my work will be of people passing by an empty wall of the city, to show how is not the place that characterize the person, but the opposite.

Audrey Tan, London

I wanted to find an alternative way to represent the city Iām living in without showing its people by using the coloured lights from iconic landmarks symbolically to show the diversity of London.

These photographs are my timeline depicting a visual diary of my moods and preserved as my memory bank.

I'd like to thank Kodak and Women in Photography for this invaluable opportunity.

Nicola Tree, London

To me London is both personal and impersonal, simultaneously. London is so big, that one can't help feeling alone amongst a city full of people getting on with their lives and yet amongst this anominity a tapestry exists with threads of friends and family that makes London personal and a place one can call home
