About Artist

Stephen Berger

As a photographer I of course love when I get 'the shot’ but the act of being out with my camera makes me feel present, connected and hyper-aware of my surroundings. It’s a moving meditation which leaves me feeling grounded and alive. It's also an interactive process. My style is what I would call “street photography in nature" (and sometimes in the city/urban environments). Always handheld I wander with my camera, see something that inspires me and press the shutter in the hopes of capturing the moment. Then I move to the next one. Between the meditative awareness and the interactive process, these photographs represent my sense of the energy, beauty, and feeling of those moments. While I've done a lot of wildlife photography and I absolutely aim to make it artful I consider it a skill I've developed while the atmospheric nature shots and portrait shots reflect more of how I feel and see the world. That work has been described as "Our Zeitgeist: A lot of trouble. Enough joy to see us through". My desire is to capture, share and illustrate the beauty that surrounds us and to do so as a reminder that as crazy as the world seems at times, it also (and always) beautiful!
