About Me.
|
Welcome to Meadow Valley Design Photography. Living in the northern portion of the Sierra Nevada Mountains, close to where they meet up with the Cascade Mountain range offers abundant opportunities for taking photographs in each of our four distinct seasons. It is a beautiful area, rich in history, wildlife, magnificent forests, stunning lakes, scenic rivers and streams and uncrowded hiking trails. In fact, the Pacific Crest trail is only 6 miles from where I live in Meadow Valley.
I began a career in professional photography 14 years ago, but it has been a hobby for 50 years. You may find my work on display at Plumas Arts on Main Street Quincy or hanging in a local business or restaurant. Each photograph is limited to 15 prints.
