Who is this guy?

David J. Willis is a multifaceted photographer/artist, DJ/musician and chef now living in San Antonio,Texas. He has been capturing images using photography for over 45 years. His journey as a photographer began with the loan of an Instamatic 110 camera from his third grade teacher while on a class trip to San Francisco in the mid ‘70s. That trip began his lifelong love of the medium. Having spent most of his life in the rural coastal and mountain towns of Northern California, David grew up immersed in nature. His unusual upbringing was steeped in photojournalism, the darkroom, art, and biology. He often developed his own B&W film in the kitchen sink as part of his home education curriculum. These early experiences shaped his understanding of the photographic medium and heavily influenced his way of seeing and interacting with the world. David seeks to capture the subtle, impermanent beauty of the natural landscapes that continue to inspire his work. Utilizing his unique perspective, understanding of light, traditional photographic techniques and that modern digital stuff, David looks forward to sharing his work with you. While primarily focusing on natural landscapes, he occasionally branches out into urban/street and abstract subject matter. His work is done with available light only and an absolute minimum amount of digital processing. David hopes to capture enduring images that will delight, engage and inspire.
