JEFF P. WILLIAMS-PHOTOGRAPHY
I have been fascinated with photography most of my life. Since shooting historic fence posts at Mt. Vernon, VA, at age 8, I have had a love affair with the camera.
Today, when I'm not teaching pre-engineering to high school students in Lawrence Country, OH, or working on Williams Horse Farm, I am usually outdoors with my camera in hand, with my wife Kim by my side, looking for the next frame.
I like several types of photography including nature, wildlife, landscapes, seascapes, floral, and macro. I would like to become more experienced in portrait and event photography.
If I have a dream left in my life, it would be to travel the country shooting pictures of the national parks, cities, rural areas of our great nation and sharing them with all.
I hope everyone takes their time viewing my gallery and I will return many times to post new work.
