Tara was raised at the end of a long dirt road in Vermont. After wandering west and subsequently graduating from Brooks Institute of Photography in Santa Barbara, California in 2007, she returned to the coast where her sarcasm and preferential treatment of winter weather would be better appreciated.
Tara is a Brooklyn based photographer focusing on international humanitarian efforts, women's rights, community service projects and environmental issues.
