Safiyyah Scoggins

I am Peripheral Visions Photography (PVisions), a freelance photographer with over 20 years experience. I'm PVisions because of my great eye for details, and strong knack for capturing natural moments unnoticed. What will you find in my photos? Organic emotions! Favorite subjects captured are Rosa Parks, Grammy nominated singers Les Nubians and Indigenous People.

I journeyed to photography at the age of 9 when I purchased my first camera that I saved money, and walked a few miles, to buy. My first 35mm film camera felt so natural. I was "Trigger Finger!" Ansel Adams once said you can shoot rolls of film and you'll be lucky to get one good shot. This is something most photographers know well and I am no exception, which is why I'm so appreciative for the creation of digital cameras; it's more affordable to shoot like crazy!

My wish list is a Hasselblad Medium Format. My desire is to do still photography for film, television, entertainment, fine arts, journalism...

For mounting and framing I create architectural and picturesque landscape (scenic) photographs, some of which are spiritually based and speaks of my personal transformation. I cater to all event types. I love shooting candids because of its natural state. I produce slideshow videos to music. I create editorial style photo books that breaths life into the story of an event, which often entails research. People marvel at the details of my work and the feelings captured.

Enjoy the journey of Peripheral Visions Photography ~ Visions of Light Mirrored!
