PhotosByFeist: About me

My dog and I visiting Shenandoah National Park, a favorite destination of both of ours.

I am a part-time photographer. I love it that way, because photography is my *escape* from the daily grind, *not* my daily grind! I bring that fresh enthusiasm and avoid creative ruts by photographing part time. I've photographed all sorts of things in my time, from weddings to professional events. I've had good fortune to travel the world quite a bit during my education, and photos were the centerpiece of those trips.

PhotosByFeist was founded in 2004. In 2009, I discovered my passion: pets. I still do weddings and the like, but my main focus (no pun intended) is on pet photography. Through my travels, where I observed stray dogs in so many countries, and the time I spent working with a local rescue, I decided that my pet photo events would benefit rescue.
