Denise Silva’s presentation focuses on learning to how to refine your imagery with a focus on simplicity through the elimination of non-essential components from your composition. By stripping an image down to its bare essentials, minimalistic imagery emphasizes your subject and tells your story. Simplicity can be powerful when executed properly.  

Her interest in photography started when her grandmother would share her slideshow travels to Egypt and Africa.  Thirty-five years later, those seeds took root and inspired her to embrace photography and travel, from which Road Runner Photography Tours was born.

Denise is recognized as one of the top 200 Women Photographers Who Inspire by Nature Photo Guides and has had multiple articles published in Extraordinary Vision (EV) Magazine, and is a featured artist in Breakthrough Photography’s Guide to Night Sky Photography. 

Her passion is to share her knowledge of photography, while introducing people to the amazing landscapes, wildlife, and people all over the world. Denise embraces the idea that everyday above ground is a good one, so get out and enjoy!
