Wendy Paton is an award winning American photographer, best known for her dramatic black and white candid, nocturnal portraits. Specializing in analog photography and printing in a traditional darkroom setting, she splits her creative life between her studio in Lambertville, New Jersey and Paris, France. In 2012 the launch of Paton’s first monograph, Visages de Nuit, published by Kehrer Verlag, coincided with the solo museum exhibition, Wendy Paton: Visages de Nuit, in Moscow at the Lumiere Brothers Center for Photography. In 2014 WENDY PATON | NUIT BLANCHE, opened at The James A. Michener Art Museum in Doylestown, Pennsylvania. Her images have been published in international publications as well as exhibition and museum catalogs, and appeared on CNN and Russia Today television. The artist’s exhibitions have been seen in galleries and museums throughout the U.S. and Europe. Paton’s photographs are included in the permanent collections of Still Art Collection, Russia, SpallArt Collection, Austria; Musée de la Photographie, Belgium; James A. Michener Art Museum, PA, U.S.; Lumiere Brothers Center for Photography, Moscow; International Center of Photography, New York; Bibliothèque Nationale de France and the Personal Collection of His Serene Highness Prince Albert II of Monaco as well as other notable private, international collections.
