"Stunning", "Classic", "Surreal",
"Breathtaking". A few of the
accolades for Peter's BW fine art
landscape photography. Often
traveling far and hiking miles to
altitudes of 10,000 feet or more,
his work exemplifies a classic eye
with a modern sense of impact.
“I was greatly influenced by Helmut Newton, Herb Ritts, and
Weston throughout my commercial
career. Even though their work was
primarily portrait or still life,
the depth and contrast of their
black and white images incline me to
push the visual envelope further in
terms of classic landscape
photography. I definitely admire
such greats as Ansel Adams and Galen
Rowell, but I strive to create a
different feel to classic landscape
photography by using my own
interpretative POV. I try to enrich
the viewer by making the image come
alive as much as possible. I don’t
want to create ‘pretty’ pictures; I
seek to create images to wonder at.
That being said, I refuse to
manipulate my photos on a computer,
though I can appreciate those who do
it well. I create my art inside the
camera on one frame. What you see is
real, not an illusion.”
Over a period of 25 years, Peter
worked throughout the
US and Europe as a commercial still
photographer with numerous clients
and was published throughout the
world. He followed with an
exploration of cinematography, which
led him to become a respected
director of photography. In the past
6 years,
Peter has returned to his roots and
his love of the natural world,
concentrating on his fine art BW
landscape work.
He has a great love of trees that
often figures prominently in his
images. He
predominately works in medium format
film.
