Profession: Photographer

Company: Hayes PARC, Phoenix; (602) 230-7879; hayesparc.com

Background: When photographer Marilyn Hayes was young, she often would water her backyard with a garden hose, praying for greenery to pop up. “You always want what you don’t have,” she muses, explaining, “I grew up in Arizona, in the desert.” It is this love of lush landscapes that comes through in her photography, which she creates without a camera, using 19th-century early photographic processes.
