Marc Adamus

Marc Adamus

Marc Adamus was born and raised in Corvallis Oregon. He went through high school and into culinary school after graduating. However, at culinary school Marc lost a sense of passion for food and really wanted to explore the world of photography, specifically landscape photography. At the age of 19 Marc obtained his first camera and by the time he turned 24 he really jump-started his career in being a professional photographer. Marc masters in the realm of landscape photography. He has revolutionized what a landscape masterpiece is with his use of light and scenery. He has managed to create a very distinctive style for himself, that few have been to recreate. Marc uses strong foreground elements like wildflowers to pull his viewers into the image towards his main subject. He then wraps the entire image in beautiful light and color to really recreate a scene that unfolded between his eyes.  Marc spends 200 days out of the year in order to capture his breath-taking landscape photos. He is very committed to his career as a photographer and goes to remote locations that few dare to venture of the path and go. He is able to view these locations and witness place that few eyes have seen to photograph and show them to the world. Marc leads groups of people to different continents, providing gear and food and will teach you all about his process for taking the perfect photograph. He will also cook you some gourmet meals from his culinary experience from years back in college when he went to culinary school. Marc continues to pursue landscape photography as a career as he's ended up in many National Geographic books and magazines and has won many awards along the way.

Above is my favorite image of Marc Adamus. I love this image because of the scale of the mountains compared to the guy standing on the rock. It creates a strong sense of depth. Marc finishes the image by wrapping it in a great since of light to make the image feel complete and powerful.
