Glennis K Lofland is a self-taught photographer of Siksikaitsitapi (Amskapi-Pikuni) descent and is based in Norfolk, Virginia. She draws on her experience growing up in the country, her Amskapi-Pikuni heritage, and her travels throughout the United States and around the world.

She challenges herself to find an unexpected angle, perspective, subject, or framing of a landscape. The photograph is less about the literal scene, and more about the light or the color, a shadow, or an emotion.

"When I’m photographing a landscape, I am forced to slow down. Like a painter or artist approaching a sketch, I really look at what’s there—the light, the color, the lines and shapes—and feel what the scene evokes. It becomes almost meditative as I watch the changing light and what that does to the moment. It’s that experience I try to bring to others through my photographs: to slow down and take a moment to really see something new or something that you remember."
