Studio Map | Born in
Savannah, Georgia, and having traveled the world, Greg finally settled
down in the beautiful scenic town of New London, Minnesota. Greg’s
interest in photography began with the receipt of a camera as a gift
from his maternal grandmother. For many years, photography was simply
a magical means of capturing a snapshot of friends, celebrations, and
places. As Greg became aware of the work of photographers such as Ansel Adams, William Eggleston, Henri Cartier Bresson, Diane Arbus, Dorothea Lange, Edward Steichen, and Richard Avedon among others; he came to realize photography can offer much more than just capturing a snippet of a time and place - and that there is a difference between a picture and a photograph. Greg’s passion is capturing images through the medium of film that evoke feelings and emotions in much the same way that painters, sculptors, potters, poets, writers, and musicians do in their respective mediums. Where Ansel Adams is world-renown for capturing spectacular black and white photographs of the American West, Greg seeks to share his vision of the spectacular vistas of the everyday beauty that surrounds each of us - including the spectacular vistas of everyday New London and surrounding communities. |
