Elizabeth Waterman

Los Angeles-based Elizabeth Waterman is an American fine art photographer and director. A through line in her distinctive body of work is the depiction of the ongoing metamorphosis of artists and performers of many genres. Her singular images explore women, obsessions, and portraits of artists. Waterman’s style has been called both transcendent and transformative. It is also elegantly composed, and infused with directness and authenticity.

Currently, Waterman is showing work from her sold-out 2021 book, MONEYGAME, published by XYZ (Lisbon, Portugal). The coffee-table volume features color and black & white photographs from Waterman’s five-year foray into the strip club industry, and her editorial text. The more than 75 images were shot in New York, Los Angeles, New Orleans, Las Vegas, and Miami. She is also presently working on a book on Thailand’s wide ranging entertainers, and will have a book on adult entertainers titled “Candyland '' released in October 2024 by Unicorn Publishing Group UK.

Waterman also has an extensive commercial and editorial portfolio. Born in Taos, New Mexico in 1985, Waterman holds a B.A. in Fine Art from the University of Southern California.
