About Michelle Darlington "Photography is a visual portal through which we measure a particular point in time." We can choose how we will record time, by the film or digital settings, the camera, lens, and the light, but the real point of connection lies in the moment of depression of the shutter. Not only does this require photographic skill, it requires a certain sense of being present to the moment . Over a period of 20 years, Michelle Darlington has refined such skills and as a result, has developed a reportage style that is fluid, delicate and defining. Her inspiration has been drawn from the work of such great photographers as; Sebastiao Salgado, Annie Leibovitz, Dianne Arbus, and Robert Mapplethorp. Michelle's photographic career has included a range of genres such as, Film, Theatre, Events, Editorial, Commercial, Advertising and Wedding photography . Michelle is passionate about people, the environment and how they interact. Whether she is shooting a delicately posed portrait, an editorial assignment or corporate event, She will always be looking to capture that definitive moment in time.
