Cami
Turpin
Hello! I’m Cami, a portrait photographer, experimental film artist, and writer. Literature was my first love, and where I spent the bulk of my formal education.
But I am a storyteller at heart and have found photography to be my favorite medium for telling stories. After starting out in digital photography in the early 2000s, for most of the last decade I have been using analog film for my personal work in every format I can get my hands on.
Lately, I have been especially loving mixed media work, alternative processes, and including writing in my photographic projects whenever I can. Teaching has been an integral part of my experience as an artist, and I have taught a wide range of classes in photography, writing, and artistic development to all skill levels.
I believe in helping my class participants become the best version of their artist self, however that shows up. I live at the foot of the Utah mountains with my family, I love to travel and also to be cozy at home, and I thrive on being continually surprised by life, the people I love, and by art.
