My approach to photography is all about living in the moment. I find it extremely gratifying to capture and share that instant with others. Motivated by a creative longing, I purchased my first camera in 1996 at age 38. Having no formal education as an artist or photographer allows me the freedom to follow my own creative path. I take great pride in the fact that my work comes from an intuitive sense of timing, composition, lighting and balance. I strive to tell simple stories through a complex arrangement of reoccurring patterns and shapes within the composition. My photography has allowed me to travel to many wonderful places, but I always come back to Cape Hatteras, NC. The ever-changing environment and extreme conditions of my barrier island home serve as a constant inspiration. |

Stephanie Kiker, an Outer Banks artist and graphic designer, has used the natural beauty and abundant wildlife on the islands as inspiration for her expressions since first moving to the area in l985. She graduated from the School of Design at North Carolina State University with a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Graphic Design and has since pursued her career as a working artist, working in a number of mediums, including pen and ink, colored pencil and soft pastel. Stephanie's interpretations of her subject matter are original and her style is unmistakable. Her work moves from realism to the bold graphic shapes, patterns and colors of her well-known and unique aboriginal style.
