KAREN BROWN, Hobart photographer

I provide private and corporate photography sessions in a personal, natural and relaxed style. As a professional photographer with 20 years of experience I have photographed countless weddings, babies, school kids, parents and grandparents, couples in love, hairdressing models, businessmen and buskers, politicians, aspiring models, singers, choirs and rock bands.

I am a 9th generation Tasmanian and I grew up in Hobart, on the Estern shore in Lindisfarne. As a child I spent a lot of time in the Tasmanian mountains and bush. Both my parents were keen adventurers, bush walkers, campers and talented photographers. Even as a child I was photographing people and wild and beautiful places. I could hardly wait for the Kodachrome slides to arrive in their yellow box in our letter box!

I began photographing seriously in my twenties and studied photography at the University Art School in Hobart. After that I travelled a lot and worked around the world for nearly 10 years (Europe. India, Asia).

In the 1990’s I lived and worked in Amsterdam, The Netherlands for 5 years. I established myself there as a successful free lance photographer. I photographed weddings and portraits and I had photos published as a best selling series of greeting cards in Holland.

Today I work as a professional photographer in Hobart, Tasmania. I photograph weddings, portraits as well as commercial assignments.

Warmest wishes, Karen Brown
