I became interested in photography at 14 years old when I bought my first Instamatic camera. I was taking pictures of anything and anyone, unfortunately most of those photos have been lost through the years. I concentrate mainly on Outdoor and Travel Photography. There is nothing more enjoyable to me then to be out on a cold October morning photographing Hot Air Balloons launching in Albuquerque, New Mexico, or driving on Route 66 from Chicago, IL to Santa Monica, CA stopping at every little town to see what treasures await my camera lens.
I am now working full time as a photographer and have a company where I use my images and design and sell bookmarks, key chains, post cards,and Fridge magnets to various state and national parks and retail stores across the country. My images have been featured in over twenty calender titles from Route 66 to Texas themed. Visit my other website www.bookmarksbydoug.com to see some of my items. I live in Amarillo, Texas.
