Norah is a Boston/Chicago photographer with just under ten years of experience. She has worked as a photography intern, second photographer, main photographer, and salesperson for Hunt's Photo and Video. She has gained extensive knowledge of studio equipment and lab work during her time at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. Norah specialize in portraits, ranging from wedding candids to staged studio images. Throughout her time running a darkroom in her hometown and her experience at UCLA’s summer intensive, Norah is also very well-versed in film photography. Norah's practice is heavily inspired by former photographers such as Francesca Woodman and Alex Stoddard, who send a strong message through their aesthetic choices surrounding surrealism and grittiness. Working in a medium where women are expected to be in front of the camera rather than behind, she brings a strong passion for feminism to her personal work; through performance and theatrics, Norah aims to provide a narrative in a single image or series of images to highlight social issues or to emphasize the subject’s identity.
