About the Gallery
EXPRESSIONS Gallery, located on Cape Cod at 578 Main St. in Chatham, showcases the coastal photography of Steven Koppel and serves as headquarters for the EDI Institute.
This gallery embodies much of what Steve is passionate about, providing opportunities to witness:
- Expressions of Steve’s experiences on the tidal flats and beaches of Cape Cod
- Expressions of the beauty of Cape Cod’s natural resources, and the importance of their preservation and protection
- Expressions of healing and resilience through the work of the EDI Institute
EXPRESSIONS Gallery is also home for Steve’s retreats and seminars and a venue for educational programs focused on photography and the environment. All images on the “Across the Cape” page of this site can be viewed in person at the gallery, and all others can be ordered in custom sizes.

About the Team
Amy Jasperson is the newest member of the EXPRESSIONS team, working closely with Steve to provide all gallery visitors with meaningful and gratifying experiences. After moving to the mid-Cape with her family during Covid-19, Amy’s first book purchase for their coffee table was Steve’s book of images of the Cape Cod National Seashore. A graduate of Wellesley College with a double major in Art History and Political Science, Amy is inspired by Steve’s visual expressions of the Cape’s sky, sand, and sea. Originally from Central Massachusetts, she creates stained glass and mixed media art inspired by nature on the Cape, cares about clean water and natural preservation, and enjoys spending time near the water every day.
Isabelle Quinn has been part of the gallery team since we opened, playing a key role in guiding daily operations and offering thoughtful customer service. A 2021 graduate from the University of Massachusetts Amherst’s Commonwealth Honors College with a degree in Global Marketing and Communication, Isabelle greatly enjoys sharing the story of EXPRESSIONS and being involved in the creative and entrepreneurial directions of the gallery. Growing up on the Brewster Flats, Isabelle shares an adoration of Cape Cod’s natural beauty, which also inspires her own personal artistic endeavors involving found materials from the beaches of the Cape and beyond.
