Jessica Todd Harper spent much of her childhood wandering around with a sketchbook, copying paintings. This traditional artistic preparation took an unexpected course when she started making photographs as a teenager, but the familiar canvases of her childhood heroes- John Singer Sargent, Whistler, Vermeer- still have their influences today: She is interested in making emotionally charged portraits of people. Jessica's photographs have been discussed in Photo District News, Camera Austria, The Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, and The New Yorker.
