Black And White Photography Works By Tammy Ruggles

Fine art photography was something I always wanted to do but couldn't, given my blinding disease known as RP. I couldn't see in a darkroom due to night blindness, nor read the settings on a camera to shoot manually. I resigned myself to taking family snapshots with disposable cameras, and concentrated on other artistic pursuits.


But a point-and-shoot digital camera set on auto, a 47-inch computer monitor, and a bit of courage changed all of that in 2013.

Since then I've been fortunate to have my photos published in literary journals, art magazines, and photography publications around the world.

Although I love color, I prefer black and white because I see best in high contrast. I'm not completely blind. I do have some remaining vision, and this is what I use to practice photography.

Photography allows me to continue being the artist I've been since the age of 12, and it helps me stay connected to a visual world that is deteriorating as time goes by.


I'm also a writer and finger painter, but photography is literally an impossible dream come true thanks to today's technology, and I want to enjoy it while my vision holds out.
