Growing up in the vibrant San Francisco Bay Area, Westeigh was profoundly influenced by the breathtaking landscapes of Northern California, particularly those captured by the legendary Ansel Adams. His work inspired Westeigh’s own visits to national parks and instilled deep appreciation for nature’s beauty. As a self-taught and intuitive photographer, she has always been drawn to the art of storytelling and the power of images to evoke memories and emotions.

Westeigh’s photographic journey has been enriched by diverse influences, including the gritty street photography of Daido Moriyama and the narrative-driven work of Sophie Calle. These photographers, along with extensive travels, a voracious appetite for the arts, love of reading and writing, and a passion for film and documentaries, have all shaped Westeigh’s unique vision.

Specializing in emotional landscapes and finding beauty in the mundane and everyday moments, Westeigh’s work is primarily in black-and-white, aiming to create images that are both calming and meditative. Cherishing the traditional purist techniques of photography, Westeigh allows them to inform the artistic process, while also embracing the freedom to explore and innovate within the medium.

Through the lens, Westeigh strives to capture the serene and timeless moments that resonate with the viewer, inviting them into a world where each photograph tells a story and evokes a sense of introspection and connection.
