Amongst awe-inspiring landscapes, a solitary figure often stands, camera in hand, aiming to capture the essence of nature’s most elusive creatures.
Amy Eskind, a freelance journalist by profession, merges her love for storytelling with photography, especially wildlife photography.
She moved in 2021 from Washington, D.C., to Utah and fell in love with the wildlife. The beauty of the region and its biodiversity deepened her interest in photography and gave her new perspective on the stories she wanted to tell, she said.
Today, she has 22 pieces of photography displayed in the high-end luxury retail store, The Bed Room.
“I really enjoy taking photos of animals,” she said. “I like the connection. I try and create emotion in my pictures.”
As a freelance journalist always looking for stories, Eskind tries to find narratives that captivate and engage. When she discovers a compelling candidate, she pursues it with enthusiasm and curiosity. Her stories and op-eds have appeared in publications such as People magazine, The Washington Post and The Los Angeles Times.
Her transition to wildlife photography did not diminish her interest in storytelling. Instead, it allowed her to combine her knack for narrative with visual elements. She wants each photograph to be more than just an image, but rather a story captured in a single frame.
“I took a trip to Katmai National Park in Alaska just to take pictures of bears,” Eskind said. “It was phenomenal. The bears didn’t pay any attention to me because there was salmon in the water. It was an incredible situation.”
In addition to showcasing Eskind’s wildlife photography, The Bed Room specializes in high-end linens, mattresses and bed furniture.
The store’s commitment to quality and elegance makes it an ideal venue for art displays, blending fine furnishing with works of art, owner Scott Hollis said.
“We believe at the Bed Room Park City, you deserve the satisfaction of making bedtime the best part of the day. You deserve the peace of mind of knowing that when you pull up the sheets, you’re going to sleep,” said Hollis. “Comfortable, cozy, luscious, and invigorating — your bed should be a place you can go to escape, dream and rejuvenate. Sleep should be the ultimate experience. And it can be. We have carefully curated one of the best collections of luxury sleep products from around the globe.”
