Kelly Lee Webeck is a photographer and visual arts educator based in Berlin, Germany. She received her BFA in visual art studies from the University of Texas at Austin and her MFA in photography from Indiana University, Bloomington. Her photographic research is about Holocaust history, memory, and education. During her graduate studies, she spent one year on fellowship at Freie Universität Berlin to research Holocaust landscapes and memorial sites. During this time, she photographed the city and beyond, falling in love with the quality of light, the energy, the grit, and the thriving photographic community. She connects deeply with Berlin and is thrilled to share the city as an immersive, energetic backdrop to teach in.

As an artist, she is interested in bookbinding, analogue photography, and the use of vernacular photography in contemporary practices. She teaches visual arts at an international school in Berlin and teaches courses online related to contemporary photographic practices as well as Sketchbook Practices for Photographers. She has maintained a sketchbook practice that supports her photography for more than 15 years.
