"Oporto Bridge"


Sharon Tenenbaum was educated as a Civil Engineer in Israel, and practicing as a Professional Engineer in Vancouver Canada. In late 2007 she made a decision to part from engineering in order to pursue her passion for photography after being inspired by a life changing journey to South East Asia. After Jostling through the streets of Delhi, trekking the Himalayas and cycling through Myanmar (Burma). She chose to express her fascination of all she witnessed through photography. Returning home to Vancouver, B.C., she began to see her home town through a new pair of eyes. These backyard discoveries gave birth to her ‘Vancouver Portfolio’. As a Photographer, Tenenbaum is an entirely self-taught artist, having learned her craft through personal research and practical experience behind the camera. Sharon has chosen to combine her engineering side with her artistic side to create a 'Bridges Portfolio'. Although an emerging artist, in a relative short period she has managed to define an artistic direction and distinctive style in her work, acquiring international recognition in the process.
