JACK FOLKER -
PHOTOGRAPHER
My interest in photography began in Junior High School with my first camera and
a love of taking pictures of family, friends, animals, and anyone who would stay
still long enough to show up on film. After graduating from California
State University at Long Beach in 1968 with a Bachelor's in Fine Art, I
continued to take photos as a hobby. In 1995, my day job involved extensive travel, thus allowing
me to experience the magnificent vistas and solitary beauty of the western U.S.
I then became much more serious about the quality of my results and photography
moved from a part time hobby to become my passion in life.
The motivation for showing and selling my photographs is twofold. I have a strong desire to encourage others to experience some of the breath taking locations that
I have had the good fortune to see, as well as to help promote their
preservation and conservation. My photographs represent thousands of miles
of automobile travel, hiking and paddling. I would be more than happy to help make it possible for you to also see and photograph these locations.
I donate some of the proceeds from my sales to both The Audubon Society
and The Nature Conservancy and I hope you will consider doing the same.
