Alicia Bock: Through the Viewfinder

Posted on July 23, 2007 Under Art

Alicia Bock is a self-taught photographer “…in search of light and shadows, pretty things in pink, the feeling of the ocean, and a blue moon.” Based in Mid-Michigan, Alicia likes to find her inspiration in the simple and the beautiful, both of which are frequently evident in her pictures of nature, children, and weddings. In her “Through the Viewfinder” series, Alicia used an Argus 75 and her digital camera to create soft, vintage-y photographs that highlight the dust, scratches and other imperfections that make vintage images so charming. A selection of these prints are available as 8″x8″ prints (on 8.5″ x 11″ archival paper) on Etsy for a breezy $30, and Alicia will even single-matte your print for an extra $19, making it all ready for an 11×14 frame and your soon-to-be-lovely wall.
