Biography

Laura Cochran took up photography in 2018 when she retired at the age of 56. Laura leans heavily into the style of minimalism, as it provides a serene, expansive feeling when it is done right. She tries to impart these qualities through her photos. She and her husband live on the tranquil island of Cozumel, Mexico.
