LightBox Photographic Gallery opens Paris on Film, an exhibit by Marc Mcvey, on Saturday, March 14th from 4-7pm. “I explored the streets of Paris, as I’ve done many times before, but this time through the perspective of a 50mm lens on a forty plus year old Leica. Often called the ‘normal’ lens for its similarity to human vision, this focal length allowed me to act as a quiet observer, while isolating the intimate moments that define the city. I embraced a slower, more intentional process in order to catch a glimpse of the timeless character of Paris. Shooting on film allowed me to accentuate light, texture and grain, and display the full beauty of fiber gelatin prints. ~ Marc McVey
Marc McVey is a photographer living in Woodland, WA. He has been photographing his travels for over 30 years, looking for what he calls “accidental moments” and pairings that create their own narrative. His work has been sold in galleries in San Diego, La Jolla, Los Angeles, Vancouver, and Astoria. Marc McVey is a proud member of the LightBox Photographic Gallery Guild.

In Valparaíso, Éléonore Simon captures the Chilean seaport city suspended between return and departure in stark black and white. Drawing on her lived experience, Simon blurs the boundary between reality and imagination, transforming the city’s shifting horizons and improbable architecture into meditations on memory and introspection.
Éléonore Simon (French-American, b.1987, she/her) is a photographer and writer based in Paris. Informed by a background in art history and literature, she approaches photography as a space of sensitivity, attention, and possibility.
A self-taught artist, her first love is street photography. Today, she continues to explore the poetry of everyday moments through a contemplative, open-ended approach that extends into a broader fine art practice and alternative photographic processes.
Her work has developed between periods in France, New York, and Chile. Valparaíso, volver o volar(2017–2021) brings together her years in Chile, shaped by close attention to moments of tension and suspension in the port city.
Simon’s photography has been exhibited internationally and published in magazines and anthologies dedicated to contemporary street photography. She is a member of the UP Photographers collective and a regular speaker at international photography festivals. She is also an active writer, collaborating with artists and contributing to publications such as Revue EPIC and Process Magazine.

In-Person Artist Talk
Terri Warpinski’s Death|s|trip restores memories to sites across present-day Berlin where victims of the Berlin Wall lost their lives. Each photograph captures a contemporary site directly linked to an individual who died attempting to flee oppression between 1961 and 1989. With stories based on written narratives and archival research, these layered images commemorate courage and loss while resonating with ongoing global struggles for freedom, and safe passage.
Terri Warpinski (American, b. 1955, she/her) explores the complex relationship between personal, cultural and natural histories through her lens-based, mixed media creative practice.

Most recently was awarded the Carol Crow Fellowship for Environmental Photography by the Houston Center for Photography in 2024, was a Top 50 finalist of Critical Mass and was a finalist exhibited in the international BBA Photography Prize exhibition in Berlin, Germany.
Her extensive exhibition record includes the Pingyao International Festival of Photography in China; the U.S. Embassy in Jerusalem; Houston International Fotofest; the Center for Photography in Woodstock, New York; the University of the Arts in Philadelphia; and Camerawork in San Francisco. She was awarded a DAAD (Deutscher Akademischer Austauschdienst) Fellowship in 2017 to Berlin for work her long-term project Death|s|trip. Her limited-edition artist books (Sagebrush, 1999 and Surface Tension, 2016), and collaborative broadside portfolios (Liminal Matter: Fences, 2017 and Liminal Matter:Traces, 2018) with Portland poet Laura Winter are in numerous public and special collections including Stanford University; The Bancroft at UC-Berkeley; Beinecke Library, Yale; Book Arts Collection, Baylor University; Amherst College; and the Getty Research Institute.

Myron Filene, Morning Light at the Delta
A Show of Images by Myron Filene
March 5th - March 31st
Artist's Reception Saturday March 14th 6-8PM
Luke's Frame Shop
4703 N Albina Ave.
Portland, Oregon
Just about every Saturday for two years, Charlie, my dog, and I went out to the Sandy River Delta to catch the rising morning light. Well, he was more interested in critters, but I relished the enchantment that was sunrise bringing a glow onto the landscape: the trees, the water, the grasses, to all about me.
The gift of light upon the land was that I could bring it home and let it light up the world of my studio space.
My intent in working with this material was to touch upon the awe I felt. To let others feel the beauty.
All inquiries and purchases will be handled by the artist. Phone 971-227-2907; myfi@teleport.com.

The Soul of Portraiture: A Four-Day Portrait Photography Immersion in Santa Fe
Fritz Liedke and Santa Fe Workshops
May 12 – 15, 2026
Santa Fe, New Mexico
$2195
In this immersive four-day workshop in Santa Fe, fine-art and commercial photographer Fritz Liedtke guides you beyond technique into the true art of portraiture. Together, we'll explore what it means to see deeply, connect authentically, and create images that transcend the ordinary.
Amid the luminous light and rich textures of Santa Fe, you'll photograph inspiring models in evocative locations—desert landscapes, adobe walls, and old-world courtyards—to create portraits that are beautiful, and meaningful.
Through discussions, live demonstrations, and guided photo sessions, you'll refine your artistic voice, learn to use natural and artificial light with intention, direct your subjects with confidence, and develop your editing process to enhance mood and style. With Fritz’s hands-on guidance and immediate feedback, you'll learn to create portraits that reflect your unique artistic vision.
On a personal level, Fritz also guides you through exercises that help you break through emotional barriers, refine your artistic vision, listen to your intuition, and discover the poetry within portraiture.
In this workshop, we cover the following—and much more:
• Researching and scouting locations that are suitable for portraiture
• Using model releases and building professional relationships with your talent
• Studying the work of master portrait photographers to emulate and expand upon their techniques
• Building rapport with subjects and posing them with clarity and ease
• Finding and shaping natural light to create evocative portraits
• Using portable artificial lighting (flash) effectively and creatively on-location
• Editing efficiently and beautifully in Lightroom and other software
• Developing a cohesive portrait projects or series
• Identifying and overcoming fears and limitations that hinder your portrait photography
You will leave Santa Fe not only with striking new images and new friendships, but with fresh insight, confidence, and new ways of seeing and understanding people through portraiture.

Rich Bergeman - The Paleo Lakes Project

Opening Reception: Friday, Jan. 9, 4-7pm

Hailstorm Over Christmas Lake
During the late Pleistocene—over 10,000 years ago—Eastern Oregon was covered by vast inland seas that, over the millennia, slowly dried up, leaving the arid steppe landscape we're familiar with today. The footprints those paleo lakes left behind—the dust-blown playas and shallow salty seas sprinkled across the High Desert—are what inspired this project.
History has always driven my work, but I usually focus on the human story, like the pioneer communities that sprang up or died out on the desert, depending on the availability or scarcity of water. This project is different. Here I'm looking back on a story that was centuries in the making, and it's not something I was able to see at first. It's taken years of seasonal forays into the High Desert to appreciate the spare elegance of its landscape, with its wide horizons and immense skies.
The challenge was to find a fresh way to share this story, and I found the answer in b+w infrared photography. Stripped of the color that can distract from form, and emboldened by IR's dark, brooding skies, the High Desert becomes a dramatic panorama where the forces of nature and time are more readily revealed.
