A photographer once told Judy M. King that she shoots BIG. Judy thinks it's the boldness, close-ups, minimalism, and uncluttered backgrounds that contribute to a super-sized effect. She embraces clean design, high-impact, and novelty in her photos.
To Judy, "photography is the melding of grace, intuition, preparedness, and skill." Among other things, she considers herself to be a "publicist for the ordinary, making the common uncommon." She likes to challenge perceptions, immortalizing the eye-catching and seldom-seen. Some of Judy's joys include making unconventional cropping decisions and capturing movement, glorious color, and costumed people. Noteworthy are her multi-panel images. She often includes word play and cultural references in her titles.
Judy's award-winning photographs appear in solo and group exhibitions, books, and magazines in the United States and Europe. Her inspiration stems from God and a long list of photographers, digital artists, architects, fashion designers, painters, poets, and comedians.
