Flow with The Universe
Hello, my name is Keturah Williams and I am a creative freelance photographer. Art is my passion and I would like to challenge people's perception of art and life. My choice of subject comes from my interest in ideas about beauty and emotional connections. I enjoy photographing anything that captures the attention of those that are willing to use their minds to their fullest potential. I am inspired to create by the knowledge I gain as time moves forward and more opportunities are given. I take pride in photographing pictures that resonate with people.

Birds of a Feather
The Northern Cardinal A birder is a birdwatcher. As a young child, I became a bird watcher years ago when I was a member of the National Autobahn Society. One hot day after Mother's Day and before the arrival of the 17-year cicadas, I decided to do some gardening. A day earlier I had spotted a beautiful red bird with a crest and black face. A bird that I believed was a Cardinal. That bird inspired me to go outside. I hadn't engaged in many outside activities since the pandemic, but I had received my best inspiration and motivation to engage with the world again that day. I felt a little more comfortable engaging with nature. The one constant in this chaos of the pandemic has been the continuing cycle of nature. The seasons changed, the sun shined, the snow and rain fell, and the leaves of the trees still changed colors. When I spotted the bird the first time, with my naked eye I quickly grabbed my phone and quietly snapped a picture through my screen door. The next day I gathered up my materials for gardening and a few bushes I needed to plant. I also had a packet of wildflower seeds to plant to attract honeybees. the most important task at hand was to rid my garden of weeds. I had a bird nest above my awning, and they chirped most of the day. They kept me company.

Brawn & Brine
Brawn and Brine: Encounter at the End of the World For a biologist, a visit to the Galapagos Islands, some 850 miles west from the coast of Ecuador on the Pacific Ocean, is the trip of a lifetime. It is a destination that fulfills every dream of seeing in the flesh the animals and plants we read about while in college when we learned about Charles Darwin and his voyage on the Beagle. This most famous archipelago is home to dozens of endemic species found nowhere else in the world. The opportunity to observe them and photograph them was the pinnacle of my field career.

Mid-Century Immersion: Being an Entire 1950's Family
How can an individual, obsessed and fascinated since high school years with the look, aesthetics, and feel of the American 1950's immerse one's self into that period as much as is physically possible, and, obtain proof of having "been there, done that?"

The Accidental Florist
Those who know me intimately can hardly imagine that there was once a time when flowers never really elicited much of a response from me. I found them pretty enough, sure, but I would never pay close enough attention to them. This is hardly the case now; flowers and foliage dictate much of my creative and meditative practices. I feel like I think and speak in two languages: food and flowers. I squeal with excitement when I see a patch of wild foliage ripe for foraging. When I drive by interesting neighbourhoods with wild vines, foreign-looking trees or shrubbery, or overgrown flowering plants spilling over sidewalks, I try my best to memorize their locations so I can go back to these places to take photographs of the plants. I love visiting botanical conservatories. I will stop in the middle of the street with my heavy bags of groceries to take iPhone photographs of crawling clematis vines, camellia blooms scattered on the ground, or... say... persimmon trees with their unripe fruit. There was such a tree near my old apartment in Riley Park, and I would visit that tree everyday to observe the fruit go from green to bright orange. I was always too shy to ask the caretaker of that yard if I could snip off one branch to use for floral arrangements, so I would take multiple iPhone photos of it instead.

My Soul's Echo
Passion is like wildfire it can spread through you coursing it's way endlessly. They say a photo can say a thousand words, but it's much more than that. Abandoned, left behind, and the strange it calls out like an echo to me, begging me to capture it's history. It might sound strange but when I look at a worn down place I see a story, what tales happened within it's walls? Then there's nature that always comes back to return what was left behind into the earth. A cycle of life waiting to be captured.
