Join Jen Sulak of Weirdo Weddings Photography as we talk Entrepreneurship, Small Business, Wedding Industry talks as well as Parenting from 0-7 years old (currently) and Tattoos. In the life of a business owner, we don't stop thinking (and running) our businesses once we become parents. We start the art of integrating our moments together in one happy-go-lucky-wild-ride-I'm-in-it for the long haul. Join me for a chat with Sydney, where we discuss life with foster care for older children, the backstory of that and also how conceptual art AND parenting helps us address our own pasts! Plus, a wonderful discussion on 2 powerful tattoos that are just AMAZING and memorable!
ARTIST BIOGRAPHY
Sydney Paige Richardson grew up in southeast Texas. She spent her childhood exploring the woods on her grandmother’s property, taking pictures with disposable cameras she saved her allowance for, and making up stories in her head of fairies, magical portals, and other worlds that always appeared in her dreams.
Always knowing she was a creator at heart, Sydney explored digital photography in 2009 and fell in love. She devoured every online tutorial she could and taught herself Photoshop and how to work her first DSLR. She began exploring nature with friends and family as her models, creating conceptual portraiture to bring her fantastical worlds to life visually.
At her core, Sydney is a creator, a storyteller. Her work focuses on her emotional responses to occurrences in life. Her goal is to create work that explores emotions, bends reality, and creates new worlds. She primarily shoots in her backyard or fields near her house. In Photoshop, she composites the subject into worlds by piecing together other photographs she has taken. For her, it’s like building a puzzle that only she knows how to finish. She creates other realms through this conceptual portraiture and adds textures to give each piece a painterly, timeless feel. Her work allows others to dive into a story, reflect on the beauty of emotions, and discover the magical possibilities of where our minds can take us.
Sydney resides in the Austin, Texas area with her husband, two sassy kids, her sister, and three slightly oversized cats.
