Description :

âWhen I was 10 years old, my mother handed me her folding Kodak camera. I found my tool.â -Anne Marie Leone Anne Marie Leone is a freelance photojournalist and videographer. A native New Yorker, Ms. Leone resides in Ossining, New York, along the Hudson River â one of her photographic passions. In Westchester County she has been director of photography for Womenâs News, staff photographer for The Rivertowns Enterprise, and contributing writer/photographer for The Scarsdale Inquirer, Westchester Magazine and Hudson Valley Magazine. A permanent installation of her Hudson Valley images hangs at the Holiday Inn in Mt. Kisco, New York. Her Notable Womenâs Collection was donated to the Gender Studies Department at S.U.N.Y. Purchase. While Ms. Leone was an instructor in the Communications Media Arts program at Roosevelt High School in Yonkers, she directed State of the Art, a cable series about art and artists in the Westchester, New York, region. This year Ms. Leoneâs photograph, Stone Bridge, which she took at the Rockefeller State Park Preserve in Pleasantville, New York, was accepted as a winner in the New York State Parks Centennial Photography Exhibit. In 2001 Ms. Leone and her partner, Rennie Dorfman, while visiting friends on the Cape, discovered that âThereâs Something About the Cape.â They purchased a condo in Brewster. The Cape and its environs offered a new palette for Ms. Leone to create. Using either camera or iPhone, Ms. Leone captures the essences of the Cape. She enhances her images with a âdigital paintbrush.â Studying the image, she decides which texture - archival photo paper, canvas, wood, metal or glass - will increase its beauty. On the Cape Ms. Leone has exhibited some winning photographs at the Gallery of Orleans Camera Store in Orleans. She feels The Cape awakens all the senses and continually inspires her.
