Lisa Weatherbee

“I believe that representation matters, and that belief stems from a childhood where I didn’t always see myself reflected in the media images around me.”

Meet Lisa

Lisa Weatherbee is a portrait and lifestyle photographer living in New York, NY. She is highly conscious of the power that photography and media imagery have to shape the way we see ourselves and each other. An experienced photographer for brands, advertising, and stock, her past clients include Apple, Canon USA, Cavan Images, Citibank, Madewell, The New York Times, and others.

For her Artist Development Fund project, Lisa will explore family and identity. “Throughout my career, my work has been about inclusiveness, diversity, and depicting humans and families in ways that feel real,” she says. “I believe that representation matters, and that belief stems from a childhood where I didn’t always see myself reflected in the media images around me. I grew up wanting to change that. My images show families of all shapes and sizes, expanding and breaking down gender norms.”
