A “snug
habor” is a protected place within wild elements, a place
where one can retreat
and relax after a day out in nature. I chose the
name “Snug Harbor
Studios” for my photography because the name has internal
resonance.
Born and raised on the East Coast of Canada, I spent
much of
my early adulthood in the Maritimes and the Gaspe Peninsula. Many of my
fondest
memories as a child and young adult were in
snug harbors along the Atlantic Ocean.
My husband and I now have a snug harbor of our
own in Coronado, California, next to the
Pacific Ocean. In
my photographs, I try to find that snug harbor, that place of good
memories,
where one is safe from the elements but still close enough to enjoy
their wild
beauty. I hope my photos may remind you of the snug
harbors in your
own life.
