“I feel it is the heart, not the eye, that should determine the content of the photograph. What the eye sees is its own. What the heart can perceive is a very different matter .”

Gordon Parks

My name is Stephanie Hodges and I’m a self-taught photographer from Detroit, Michigan. I’ve been in love with photography since I was 10 specializing in whatever captured my eye. My images capture the raw beauty of human existence and everyday life . There is art everywhere around us but everyone has a different perspective ; I’d like to present my perspective to the world. Photography , for me , is a form of self-expression and allows me to have a voice in a world where words are often misunderstood. Whether my images captures your eye, touches your heart, speaks to your mind or hugs your soul, I appreciate the time you’ve taken to simply “see”.
