About Me and My Photography and Writing

My name is Tanya Bartlett, and I am from the Cincinnati area. I have a lifelong love of photography and writing.
As a photographer, I am endlessly inspired by nature, landscapes, and abstract subjects. I love traveling and going to parks and botanical gardens to get some great photos, and afterward, I love editing the photos. Though I enjoy writing in various forms and genres, my love for poetry is special and extends to my childhood memories of hearing and reading the words and rhymes of Dr. Seuss and Mother Goose.
I am so grateful to have photography and writing as tools for processing the world as I see it. For me, they are both celebratory and cathartic, and I will never take the privilege and ability to experience and express myself through these mediums for granted. I hope my work conveys to you the same incredible joy and wonder that it brings to me.

Poetry

The poetry pieces I write are usually inspired by subjects and themes within nature, philosophy, and politics. I share some of it here on my writing page and some of it on my YouTube channel.
