Joyce Tenneson

Dale Schierholt's film profile of photographer Joyce Tenneson gives viewers insight into the motivations and processes of one of the most compelling  photographers of her generation. 

“ Photographers have long sought to portray the soul but the gallery of photographed souls is mighty spare. Tenneson is one of the few who have managed to photograph the elusive identity beneath the surface…

the subjects, often enigmatic…, the compositions adroitly and quietly composed, the end result an exquisite refinement and a complex message.”
