Meet the Team

Jenny hansen das

Jenny Hansen Das is a photographer living, studying, and working in Seattle. She focuses on finding the small, absurd, or unusual moments of life. Much of her photography centers around the simplicity of the everyday but presents it in an unexpected way.

Her work combines analog and digital modes, prioritizing the creative process over the image’s origin. The final pieces are often handcrafted, resulting in one-of-a-kind works that cannot be reproduced. Her experimentation with alternative processes, including Chromoskedasic Sabatier, reflects her interest in pushing the boundaries of photographic expression.

Jenny holds a certificate in fine art photography from the Photography Center Northwest.
