Photographer
Adrienne Rubbens
An invitation...
Do you engage in an activity that slows down the busyness of life and allows you to find peace and grounding in the present moment -- similar to meditation, and through the practice of doing. Do you lose a sense of time and feel invigorated or rested afterwards?
As an ongoing project, I am curiously researching, how individuals or groups find their sense of calm, with an understanding that these moments might be very personal. Please contact me if you are willing to share your experience with me.
In gratitude, Adrienne
About me and my work...
​I am a photographer, born in Ontario, Canada and now living in the village of Gémenos, France.
My love of photography began as soon as my mom let me make an image with her Baby Brownie.
In 2016 my focus became more artistic as I felt called to practice photography with much more intention.
Wandering with my camera is a way for me to slow down; to notice my surroundings, to connect and to be present. I have found that practicing photography, along with yoga, have helped me to navigate through life's trying times, and that creativity is essential as we evolve and learn about ourself and others. It is through photography that I found the courage to explore my surroundings with curiosity and appreciation.
I am content, behind my camera and looking out through the lens at the world in front of me.
Photography is a great tool to observe and learn about life and the human condition.
It is my hope, to make images that invite us to pause and take a breath and to notice what we are feeling physically and emotionally -- to connect to oneself, to expand the sense of who we are and question our presence within our environment, and community, and how our actions and energy collectively will take us forward.
