"Her images range in subject matter from landscapes to portraits to elegantly seen fragments of the natural and built worlds . . . Bloomfield unites her compositional and printing skills to produce finely-wrought meditative images that invite our repeated contemplation . . . "  

-John Wall, The Southern Photographer
