A New Yorker by origin and a Wilmingtonian by choice, Ellen Rosenfeld Assael sees the world on foot. Her photographs are made on long walks, where a patch of light on an old wall or a shadow across a doorway is reason enough to stop and look.

Her black-and-white and color work moves from the historic streets and beaches of Wilmington and Wrightsville Beach to New York, Paris, London, Lisbon, Porto, and Morocco.
