A hospital photographer by day and a creative photographer by night is using her artistic eye to celebrate an art she says has no limitations.
Physician headshots and surgeries are just some of the many images photographer Jordan Porter-Woodruff has been taking since joining the team at UChicago Medicine five years ago.“My boss comes into my office and he gives me this camera and says, ‘You have to learn how to use this,’” Porter-Woodruff said.The pandemic began shortly after one class, but with the techniques she learned, Porter-Woodruff decided to enhance her craft by taking artists portraits of creatives she’d always admired.
The show features artists in the spaces they create and with their works. She aims to capture vulnerability.While the stories behind Porter-Woodruff’s personal portraits differ from her work with UChicago Medicine, she says it’s all connected. “A lot of my photography has also come out of my own vulnerability. I didn’t know where life was taking me there for a second,” she said. “I never imagined this being what I am doing. I was very uncomfortable in the process and I had to find my comfort in what was happening. I think for me what I want people to take away from it is a lot of beautiful things can be born out of discomfort.”Note: This story will be updated with video.
