Age Is Not a Limitation—It’s an Artistic Advantage This story began when a close friend—an extraordinarily talented photographer in her seventies—told me she felt her work didn’t matter anymore. If you scroll through Instagram—or any space where photographers gather—you’ll find a wide spectrum of ages and genres. There are those who call themselves “professionals” (a term I’ve never been fond of), younger photographers just beginning to find their voice, and a quiet but powerful cohort of older creators who are […]
I’ve never been one to make overtly political art—but these days, silence feels like complicity. As an artist and a woman, I can’t ignore what’s happening in this country. The rise of authoritarianism. The normalization of cruelty. The erasure of truth and history. I’ve seen these patterns before—in history books, in stories passed down, in places I’ve lived, and in nations that lost their way. Infrared photography is my way of revealing what most people don’t see. In a time […]

I was recently interviewed for an article on VERO, the photographic social media app, where I had the chance to share my journey through infrared photography. The conversation explored my artistic evolution—from discovering the magic of HIE film in my early days to creating ethereal black-and-white images that celebrate the American West and my deep connection to the land through my heritage. We touched on the challenges and rewards of working within this unique medium, how it has become a […]
The Photo Seen Podcast A few weeks ago, I had the pleasure of being invited back to Kat Shanahan‘s infrared podcast. This time, I was joined by the talented black-and-white infrared photographer, Nath Kaplan. We had a great time sharing our passion for black-and-white photography, covering a wide range of topics—from the types of IR filters we use, to long exposures, Lensbaby lenses, and so much more. “What a season it has been! Today we’re wrapping up with @starlitwaltz and […]

Shoutout Colorado, Sherri Mabe-Artist Hi Sherri, how has your background shaped the person you are today? Northern Colorado was home for my first 26 years, both my childhood and college years. I was born in Denver. Our family history dates back to the pioneers who settled on the eastern Colorado plains to become farmers, and also, to the Spanish settlers who migrated from the Santa Fe area to the San Luis Valley, becoming farmers and ranchers. During the 1930’s, my […]
