about sally
 

 

Photographer Sally Savage is best known in Rockland County, NY for the photo-journalism she has contributed to just about every aspect of life and change there since the late 1960s. Also as a fine-art photographer who until recently still made her own black and white print darkroom prints. Savage has exhibited, published and taught photography widely throughout the New York tri-state area.

 

 

Overseas assignments have  included a trip to Jamaica for a photo story on the Food for the Poor program; a visit to the heart of Australia, and a photo essay on an unique handicapped children’s facility in London, England. However, Savage’s most extensive work has been to follow the changes in her own small village of Piermont on the river in the Hudson Valley. There, she recorded changes from the late 1960s to 2022.  

 Savage was awarded the Rockland County Executive Arts Award: Visual Artist in 2001, and her work has twice been selected by the Rockland County Art in Public Places program. She was trained at London’s School of Printing and Graphic Arts in England, and most of her adult life has been spent in Piermont, N.Y. where she raised three children and developed her photography business. 

Mother and Daughter
Sally has recently moved to Cottage Grove near Eugene, Oregon where she has been invited to show some photography in their unique book shop "Kalapuya" for the town's bi-weekly Art Walks. In the same building is a large barn-like pub "The Axe and Fiddle" where her daughter Kate Savage is concurrently showing her paintings!
