Elliott S. Cramer

I am a junior photo illustration major from Zelienople, Pa; a small town 30 miles north of Pittsburgh. I started taking photographs my junior year in high school. Never took a photo class until my sophomore year in college. I just picked up my dad's old canon AE-1 and figured things out. Since, i've read many books and have taught myself how to compose and use the digital and 35mm cameras in many ways and am currently using a large format 4x5 camera in my classes at KSU.
I now work for the Burr and the Stater at Kent State and enjoy every minute of it. I love to travel and take photographs of different people and places all over the country. I plan on graduating in the spring of 2005 in photo illustrations. The studio is my second home, but believe the best photographs are taken in a person's own environment. View images.
