Slightly Out Of Tune by Elaine Liu

This photographic series of local jazz musicians began in the year of 1999 and is a ongoing project. As part of this musical family, with much joy, I fell in love with each and every character. I, as a photographer, cannot help but see the beauty, strength, bonds and often comical facets on and off the stage. Each of the subjects is cast in a highly personal and often surprising light to reflect the ever changing nature of their inner most expressions to me.

The Artist
