MINDS EYE A regular feature on the photographer’s creative process

Inspiration: A Brief Word
Last week I spent a couple of afternoons at the Portland Art Museum, acquainting myself with my local cultural facility. The work of American portrait artist Chuck Close was the central exhibit. Close has been portraying faces for decades in many media, always pushing the boundaries of how differing media express the human face. Never one to be satisfied with a process, Close was deliberate in looking for untried and unusual methods of creating an image and his mind was wide open to new processes. Some processes had previously been reserved for other forms of expression or subject matter, some had never been used, and some involved the help of many other people over long periods of time - in some cases, years.

Visits to major fine art exhibitions such as this always help to inspire me to continue to explore the limits of possibility of photography, which, like any art at its finest level, has the potential to connect us emotionally to something beyond our immediate experience. What was particularly significant about the Close exhibit is that it exemplifies the inverse relationship between the familiarity of a subject or medium and its process to create. In other words, fine art embodies a relationship of product to process that expands or stretches conventional understanding; it commonly challenges the comfort zone. In nature photography, my challenge is to create and present images which - through their unfamiliar subjects, unique presentation or both - question our relationship to nature or our understanding of it.

We approach all projects with an artist’s eye for making extraordinary images. We want compelling results with emotional weight, a distinct style and a story to tell. We bring the best of those images to this on-line portfolio.

WORKING WITH US
Operationally, we function as an image bank of stock photography as well as a service provider of location photography. We eagerly accept assignment work from a variety of sources, both for-profit and not-for-profit. Our rates are affordable and respond to our markets.

When you contact us we employ a customized and personalized style of service that is client-centered. Reliable, attentive and detail-oriented, we believe a face-to-face interview and portfolio presentation is the best way to gauge a match between client and photographer - at your location or ours.

We invite you to choose an artistic approach to your next photography project and call us.

COMMITMENT TO CONSERVATION
Our proudest partnerships are with those who share our passion for the natural world and value the contribution that fine images make to conservation. We support conservation efforts by providing professional photography of land with high conservation, cultural, historical, scenic, wildlife, ecological and habitat values.

In turn, we see the value in supporting worthy causes with our work. For our part, we donate 5% of all fine art print sales of Colorado landscapes to the Colorado Coalition of Land Trusts, a non-profit advocacy, education and outreach organization dedicated to the protection of Colorado’s heritage. Visit www.cclt.org for complete information.

Other worthy causes may arise from time to time. We look forward to hearing about yours.

We see this as an undercurrent to all our business. Whether we are consulting on an architectural shoot, photographing farmland in eastern Oregon, selling fine art prints to a corporate client, or writing a feature story for a travel publication - our driving message is that we want people to know about the multi-faceted heritage of this country so they too will feel as compelled to invest in its conservation.

We invite you to share in our mission.
