Art in all its forms has always been a motivating factor in Diana Diriwaechter's Swiss and American life. Even though she was drawn to photography at any early age, Diana completed her Swiss education with a degree in business. In the US she then chose special effects and films as her career and graduated from the Savannah College of Art and Design with a BFA in Computer Art. Working at Blue Sky Studios as a lighting and material technical director on 3D animated motion pictures such as, "Robots", "Ice Age The Meltdown", and soon-to-be-released "Horton Hears Who", increased her way of seeing through other eyes. Since then the camera lens has become her tool of expression in portraits, especially those of children. Whether on location or working from her studio in Harlem, Diana explores life with her eye on her lens.
