Wayne has had a passion for photography since his days as a high school yearbook photographer and editor in Williamsport, Pennsylvania. After a brief stint as a professional musician followed by a long career in information technology management, he has returned to things creative as a stock and fine art photographer. His primary interests are in nature, architectural and outdoor photography, with an emphasis on capturing the special magic of New England. Since 1974, he’s resided in Sudbury, Massachusetts, where he volunteers his time and photographic talent to a number of local land conservation organizations. Largely self-taught, his work emphasizes strong textures and colors, both natural and manmade. One of his greatest pleasures is in finding and capturing unexpected, small-scale compositions in nature – on the forest floor, on the bank of a stream, perhaps in a pond.
He is currently working on a project to capture on film the architecture, natural beauty, and historical significance of the Blackstone Valley in central Massachusetts and Rhode Island, the birthplace of the American industrial revolution.
He has been a featured photographer on several well-known international photographic websites. His work has been published by the Massachusetts Trustees of Reservations, the Sudbury Valley Trustees, and Twin Lights Press. His images have been shown in numerous galleries and public buildings in Eastern Massachusetts, and are included in various private collections.
Wayne is a member of the North American Nature Photography Association and the Sudbury Valley Nature Photographers.
