Glennis Siverson has been creating photographic art for more than 20 years. Two of Glennis’s images were awarded 2nd place and honorable mention in WIPI’s 2009 juried competition. Her work was recently selected for two international exhibitions sponsored by the Center for Fine Art Photography, and she was awarded an honorable mention in WIPI’s 2008 juried competition. The Museum of Florida Art selected five of her images for the 2009 Chrome and Leather show, and she has been selected for inclusion in ASMP’s “Light of Florida” book. Glennis studied with National Geographic photographer Mark Thiessen and her work has twice been featured on National Geographic’s website. She’s been featured in Albuquerque Magazine, published in Peterson’s Photographic Magazine and on Shutterbug’s website. She is a member of WIPI and ASMP. In 2007, she collaborated with a group of photographers in self-publishing the coffee table book “Exploring Our Planet”.

Glennis is a contract photographer for Central Florida Lifestyle Magazine and for VFM Leonardo, the largest digital image database and online media network for the travel industry. She has photographed assignments for MTV, Motricity, EA Sports, Boston University, Sylvia Greer Artworks, Applied Research Associates, Izea, Inc., The Staver Group, the National Institute of Flamenco Dance, Flutist and Producer Pamela Whitman, The Albuquerque Youth Symphony, United Online, Sutton & Sutton Realty, and others. She also regularly photographs destination weddings, travel and portraiture.

In addition to photography, she has enjoyed a career as a Human Resources professional in the entertainment and online industries, holding positions at Paramount Pictures, Sony Pictures Entertainment, NetZero, Inc., and others.

Although she became visually impaired due to a retinal abnormality, keratoconus, and several complications following a cornea transplant in 2004, Glennis’s art was transformed as a result, and the images she creates come from a new way of seeing the world around her.

Glennis shoots with a Canon EOS 5D Mark II, Canon EOS 5D, and a Canon G9.
