About

I love to explore beautiful places and I enjoy the challenge of photographing them in a way that others will respond to and enjoy. My love for photography began in Redondo Beach, California. I developed my photographic skills taking photos in Death Valley and other National Parks, along with the beautiful Pacific Ocean sunsets. In 2003 I moved with my husband to Tucson, Arizona and began photographing the Santa Catalina Mountains and the Arizona Sonora Desert. Once here, I made the switch to digital photography. I currently shoot with a Canon XTi and a Canon G10 Powershot. My photos can be see on: www.doloresrootphoto.com www.dolores-root.artistwebsites.com/index.html
