Ambiguous
Michelle Swanson lives in Beaverton with her hubs, four homeschooled kids, and four crazy dogs, after moving here from Wyoming several years ago.  Michelle enjoys many different photographic styles including dance photography, miniature scene photography, night photography, film photography, and especially enjoys teaching a community-based teen photography class. Recently Michelle has begun using this art form to work through her life long struggle with Bipolar Type 2 disorder, where this photo, “Ambiguous” is part of that larger collection. Michelle’s hope is that in speaking openly about her struggles with Bipolar, she’ll help to reduce the stigmas surrounding mental illnesses
