"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

Check out my 'What's Up' and ‘Workshop’ pages for details on upcoming exhibits and all things newsy. And here are just some of the highlights:

• As always, I had a wonderful time teaching again at Anderson Ranch Arts Center in Snowmass, Colorado for 3 beautiful weeks in June. I look forward to returning next year! I will also be at Maine Media Workshops in Rockport, Maine (in August); Mountain Intaglio, in Asheville, NC (August); and returning to Santa Fe Workshops, in Santa Fe, NM (in July). Check out my Workshops page for details!

• I am honored to have spent some time in Collioure, France, this past March (2026), on a residency (arranged by Los Angeles Gallerist, Curator, and owner of YourDailyPhotograph.com), where I photographed Collioure and the surrounding areas. That resulting artwork is now in a group show, along with the work of the 11 other residents, in Galerie Bleu, located on the waterfront of Boramar Beach, in Collioure. So if you’re in the South of France, stop by and admire all the beautiful blue imagery!

• And a new book in the fantastic alt process series, edited by Christina Z. Anderson- Platinum-Palladium Printing: A Step-by-Step Manual of the Develop-Out Process- will be out soon (September, 2026)! I am so honored to be included as a featured artist in this book. I look forward to its arrival!

• And I was thrilled to have a few of my gum bichromate and cyanotype images selected for a lovely exhibition in Shanghai, China at NoMad No Mad, which opened October 8 and run through December 14. I was also very happy and honored to have shown work in Re-exposure: The Hidden Gems, in Nanjing, China, celebrating HLiiC (Hengli Imaging Center) Gallery’s 5th Year Anniversary. This beautiful exhibit ran from October 29 through December 28, 2025.
