Description:Stillness in Motion captures the dynamic interplay between the enduring and the ephemeral. Through a long exposure, the sea transforms into a soft, ethereal mist, creating a sense of calm and perpetual movement. This tranquil energy is contrasted by the timeless strength of the rocks, which stand as monuments to both geologic time and the relentless rhythm of the tide.
ABOUT THE ARTIST:
Taylor Elam
Taylor Elam's journey from the demanding world of fine dining to the tranquil art of photography is a testament to a lifelong creative passion. For nearly two decades, Elam honed his craft as a professional chef, a career defined by precision, composition and presentation. This extensive experience, which included years collaborating with photographers in the culinary industry, provided a unique foundation for his visual storytelling career.
After nearly two decades in the kitchen, Elam reignited a long-lost passion for Fine Art Photography. A native of South Orange County, his deep connection to the ocean, fostered through a lifelong love of surfing and beach culture, made the natural world a perfect starting point. This profound relationship with the coast is now a central theme, vividly captured in his seascape, landscape and nature genres.
As an all-around creative, Elam's career is a tribute to his deep-seated love for the arts. Driven by a desire to constantly evolve, he embraces a diverse range of subjects and is always seeking new challenges. Elam creates images that are both visually compelling and deeply personal, thanks to a lens uniquely informed by a chef's precision with a surfer's soul.
