From curator Mari Upshaw:
It is a pleasure for me to present Monroe Snook in the first one woman show at MoSLP, featuring Monroe's artistic fashion photography. Monroe is one of the original six artists whose works were part of the opening exhibit of MoSLP and invited to become part of the Museum's permanent collection. Monroe's photography is always rich in color, sets a mood and draws the viewer in to each piece's personal story. Her passion for photography is evident in her work and she continues to be innovative and daring and challenges herself to stretch the boundaries, constantly improving and growing. When you think you know Monroe and her artistry thru landscape or portraits, she surprises you yet again and becomes an innovative and much requested fashion photographer, elevating fashion photography to art. It is my honor to say that Monroe is a great friend and a privilege to present this new body of work at MoSLP.

Many of you know Monroe for her fine-art SL photography. Colorful landscapes, flights of fancy, or emotional portraits. But did you also know that Monroe is a leading SL fashion photographer - having taken shots for top designers of the top SL supermodels?

Fine Art Fashionista - Monroe Snook Fashion Photographer

Monroe's fashion photography style is distinctive. She has an eye and discipline to capture fine detail with her high-resolution images while downplaying backgrounds and settings. She is a pro at capturing emotion through movement and framing. Supermodels remark that a fashion shoot with Monroe is a work-out as she is a stickler for capturing the right angle/perspective/movement of a shot in such a way as to ensure the fashion is queen at all times!

Monroe's fashion photography may be seen featured in the monthly edition of Modavia Fashion Directory where she is a leading contributor; in many high-end designer showrooms such as Haute Couture; Anubis Hartunin, and Indryra Seigo. She is also resident photographer and image consultant at Dreamz Agency.

IM Monroe for her current rate card. She does individual model portfolios and personal portraits. Schedule directly with her for a consult.
