Lisa Winner is a documentary photographer, specializing in family and storytelling. Firmly rooted in place, her work explores complex subjects: humanity, and how we exist in the every day; nature, and its ever-evolving state of being; and relationships, the true-to-life stories that can’t be replicated in a portrait studio. Her work captures the little nuances that tell a family’s story, to help the viewer understand her subject’s relationships with one another and their relationship to the natural world. Through visual storytelling, her projects aim to create empathy and greater understanding around the questions they explore.
Her work has been featured in multiple group exhibitions, including 1854 Media BJP Open Walls Arles 2021, and Texas Photographic Society’s TPS 29: The International Competition. She resides in Alameda, CA with her husband, two human children, and three dog children, Winston, Chloe and Mr. Rufus.
