"As an aritst I'm constantly striving to produce images that inspire and offer an emotive perspective of the landscape.  Nature's simplicity can illuminate our perspective as well as our emotions and provide hope, and a reminder of the small miracles that take place all around us."   -Everett Houser

Emotive.

“Photography is not just about capturing what you see, it’s about capturing what you feel.  It’s about the sharing of a story and an experience. It’s about allowing the viewer to not only see what you captured, but to feel what you experienced.”
-Everett Houser Photography


                                                       

                            
                           

“If we listen there is a deeper story in Nature.”

-Everett Houser Photography

As an artist and photographer I strive to capture and convey the wonder, simplicity, and emotion found in Nature. To bring a sense of magic to moments that often go un-noticed, and to offer a tiny glimpse of those small instances when Nature inspires us to wander.

My goal is to produce images that inspire and evoke emotion. To allow the viewer to be drawn in by a moment and to experience it as if they were there. And to offer a unique perspective of the landscape and the stories we find there. as well as offer a view of the landscape well as as offer a sense of hopen emotive perspective of the landscape.  Growing up I had a passion for photography, painting, and writing, and was always driven by a desire to capture images, and the stories they conveyed. Driven by a passion for the outdoors, my goal is to capture those silent moments that convey the spirit, mood and emotion of some of Nature’s most beautiful and fleeting moments.

As a nature and landscape photographer I specialize in emotive scenes aimed at inspiring the viewer. My goal is to produce scenes that are artful and soulful and carry a message of hope. I strive to produce images that are more than just a snapshot - but are an expression, emotion, or an open letter that shares the story of the beauty & spirit of Nature.

Most of my work is captured in the simple and uncommon spaces we often pass by on a daily basis. Places that are often overlooked, and yet have the ability to transform into something magical. If we look once, we may miss it. But if we look again under a certain light, and field of view - we discover something entirely different.

When I’m out in the Nature shooting, It’s about patience and allowing the elements and different moods of Nature to set the tone. It’s about not only seeing with your eyes, but with your heart.

My purpose is to evoke emotion through my work, while allowing the viewer to reflect on the beauty and the experiences that Nature offers.

Exploring is really about getting out and experiencing the environment and connecting with it on a deeper level. Straying away from the trail and getting closer to unique perspectives allows for newer and more intimate discoveries.  When you're out here in Nature, it is very much an emotional experience.  When you’re surrounding yourself in this immense peace and quiet, and the first light at dawn, and the sounds of Nature waking up for the first moment.  It’s about your attachment to the surroundings and to what you’re feeling and experiencing at that moment.

 

“Stories that linger in the heart are often found on a hillside at dawn.”
