LFA is a collective of photographers who share a love of photography in it's many incarnations and act as a sounding board for each other; sharing knowledge, resources, and insights. We started as a group of individuals meeting to foster our own creative endeavors and to further the awareness of their medium in our community. Some members focus on traditional processes and tools of the medium to create their art; others push known limits to find a vocabulary for their expression.

To date we have produced four successful gallery exhibitions. For two of the shows, we voted on a title/concept for a show and produced work illuminating the concept. The other two shows highlighted each photographer's best work from the past year. In addition we produced collateral material and orchestrated an opening gala for each show.

Our last thematic show was entitled ‘a view from the kitchen‘ which included a myriad of images from 8 different perspectives of the show title. Images ranged from literal interpretations of the title to a series shot in Hells Kitchen, Manhattan. To expand on the theme we prepared a dinner for 50 of our closest in the gallery for the opening.
