Project Description
Elaine Swyt
Photography – Wilsonville, Oregon
I am a native Oregonian. After a career, first in Human Resources recruiting talent all over the world for major corporations, I launched my web development and design business, Mediaphysics in the S.F. Bay Area in the early ‘90’s. I returned to Oregon in 2006 when my husband, Joe, retired and we both now reside in the Charbonneau District of Wilsonville.
My passion for photography grew out of my design work, helping my clients market their products and business ideas. My world wide travels further developed my portfolio. I am inspired by the colors, dimensions, and stories behind each. I feel truly blessed to experience this third and most amazing adventure in my life’s journey.
I hope you enjoy my work here and on my online gallery.
