About Me

I'm Eva Polak

Ephemeral moments, yet they linger long in our imagination. Each moment is attached to a place. We have very bright impressions, memories and feelings related to them. For me, photographs are small “pieces” of time, and the moments in which they were made will never be forgotten.

I have spent many years attempting to capture the essence of those special moments, uncovering places and expressing their magical secrets. Every place has a unique beauty. I have discovered that each place reveals itself to me through my camera lens, and I can often delight others through my images. Elusive, ever-changing, sparkling on the morning dew, or filtered through the fog, light is the magic ingredient that makes photography possible.

I respond instinctively when the light catches my eye and react quickly to circumstances instead of anticipating them. When the world around me is bathed in the gleaming light of early morning or the golden hour before the sun goes down, I will grab my camera and rush outdoors to capture the effect before it is lost forever.

Of course, there are also times when I plan my shots, watching the weather closely for days or even weeks, preparing myself to be ready for that special moment when the light is perfect. I like to think of my way of creating images as a continuation of how the Impressionists approached their work. I have always felt their influence, both for their work's beauty and philosophy.

I hope by browsing through my galleries, you will find the perfect image that will remind you of your special moment and help you escape from the “real” everyday world. Take it!  Create impressive surroundings in your home or office. 

My art business has been designated as a "Trusted Art Seller" with The Art Storefronts Organization, which means you can shop with confidence, and know that I stand behind the quality and value of my products.



Inspiration

As for inspiration, I find it all around me. I’m very lucky to live in New Zealand. This is such a beautiful land, full of contrasts and extraordinary light and Impressionist photography is a perfect tool that allows me to communicate with the world and share my vision. It results from the need to express my feelings through images. It is a way to connect my creative vision with the world. Whether it is a landscape, still life, or nature, I respond to the effects of colour, light or atmosphere on the subject.

Techniques

All my photographs are produced using traditional in-camera techniques. In terms of post-processing, I limit it to adding contrast, saturation and cropping if necessary.

Career Highlights

Three solo exhibitions and a variety of group exhibitions.Author of four books: Impressionist Photography Techniques, Transcended Light, The Secret Life of Dandelions, and The Magic of Slow Shutter Speed outlining ways to use your camera for painterly effect, as well as six photography albums.
