New Photographers
Amaren Colosi began taking portraits when she was five years old with her mother's old Canon. Although her aim didn't quite match her enthusiasm (even when her father graciously kneeled down to her level, she always managed to cut off his head), it was the beginning of an ongoing learning process that she believes is at the core of creating art.
Amaren honed her passion in high school and earned her BFA in photography from the School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. Since moving to Portland six years ago, she has found the city's friendly accessibility the perfect complement to her work. She loves to capture the quirky energy and creativity of the people, activities, food, and architecture of Portland, using vibrant colors and texture to bring an image to life.
