Bio
Shauna Church is an Artist / Photographer, specializing in Digital Imaging, Darkroom Techniques, and Infrared Photography. Her work is in narrative form, as installation and book projects, using both analog and digital media. Her work is internationally published and exhibited and has received numerous grants and awards.
Shauna's background, as a Cibachrome, C-print, and BW Printer 1981-90, Manager of the ICP Darkroom 1990-93, Manager of Schnoodle Studio NYC 1993-94, NYU Grant Recipient for Multimedia 1994-95, Award-winning Multimedia Designer 1995-96, Founding Director of the ICP Digital Media Lab and Digital Media Program Co-ordinator 1996-98, and the Director of Pointlight Digital 2003-2005 represents the breadth of her experience in many areas.
As a faculty member at The International Center of Photography, NYU / Tisch, School of Visual Arts, The New School University, and Parsons School of Design, she has taught Darkroom courses since 1989 and Digital Imaging courses since 1994. Shauna has been a summer workshop instructor at Maine Photographic Workshops, Santa Fe Photographic Workshops, Peter's Valley Workshops and Toscano Workshops since 1995.
Since 1990, Shauna's students have included fashion, editorial, and fine-art photographers in NYC, seeking advice on
portfolio editing, fine-art darkroom printing, image visualization, archival inkjet printing, photo retouching, and digital imaging techniques for photographers. Her strength lies in her ability to understand the core of an image and teach the potential directions for an end result that fulfills the expression of the photographer. Although this involves understanding of the technical side of photography and digital imaging, it relies heavily on her artist's eye and her teacher's ability to connect with the student and the artwork to bring it all to fruition.
