Hudson Valley photographer

I just stumbled upon this Hudson Valley photographer -- he leads workshops too.

All of the information below is directly taken off his blog or website.

Focusing on the Hudson Valley allowed Robert to discover not only beautiful landscapes often taken for granted, but the changing mood and character of the region. Seeking to capture the beauty, or convey the emotional qualities of a place or moment in nature, his images have elicited responses ranging from evocative, to spiritual and breathtaking. He frequently travels beyond in search of other dramatic and unique locations, including the Adirondacks, and the coast of Maine.

Robert takes pride in a hands on approach to creating his expressive prints, working on every stage, from the initial exposure and processing, to printing and framing. His prints have been purchased by private collectors and commercial clients throughout North America. His photographs have also been featured in publications such as the NY Times.
In addition, Robert is a respected educator in all aspects of photography including field work and digital editing and printing. He now teaches photography workshops, gives seminars in the region on a regular basis, and is a frequently invited speaker to industry associations.
A member of the National Association of Nature Photographers, National Association of Photoshop Professionals, Beacon Arts Community Association, and Beekman Banners Project.

Why Do I Photograph The Hudson River?In a recent interview for InsideOut Magazine's Second Annual Art Issue, I was asked "why do you photograph the Hudson River"? It was a question that had several answers, but in the end, it came down to my passion for the place I call home. Read more about the interview and my feelings about the valley on the blog.
