RichaRd Reynolds
Richard Reynolds has been photographing nature for more than 40 years. his interest in
photography began in 1968 when he borrowed a Kodak signet camera to take to Big Bend
national Park.
after three years in college studying pre-engineering and architecture, he enrolled in 1973 at
Brooks institute of Photography in santa Barbara, ca, where he received a bachelor’s degree
in industrial Photography and color Technology in 1976. From 1976 – 1980, Richard was
Technical staff assistant at the University of Texas department of Journalism where he managed
the photo lab and instructed students in lab and studio photography techniques. during that
time he honed his black and white and color landscape photography skills in Texas and the
american southwest. From 1980 – 1983 he continued to improve his nature and landscape photography skills while living
in Greensboro, nc. in 1983, he returned to Texas to take a job as chief Photographer for the Texas Tourist development
agency and in this position, he traveled the state, documenting its people, tourist attractions, and numerous natural resources.
during that time Richard’s photographs were used thousands of times in travel guides, encyclopedias, textbooks, magazines,
and newspapers around the world. in 1990, he struck out on his own to establish a stock photography business specializing
in Texas subjects. during that time he continued to sell his work to prominent state and national publications such as Texas
highways, Texas Parks and Wildlife, national Geographic Traveler, sunset, southern living, outside, Reader’s digest,
Westways, aaa World and many others.
Richard has been the sole photographer of a cookbook, 10 books of landscape and nature photography, and co-photographer
of two others; the sole photographer of several dozen calendars, and has 28 Texas highways covers to his credit. he currently
resides in austin, TX with his wife, nancy.

In the Studio . . .
Veteran professional photographer Richard Reynolds has conquered limitations of conventional photography by combining cutting-edge computer programs to create stunning giant floral images in his studio. Problems encountered in the field such as wind, rain, and inconsistent lighting have been eliminated as well as the technical limitations imposed by optical physics such as depth of field issues.
Reynolds has captured a wide variety of floral subjects, many grown in his own garden in Austin, Texas.

80 images for each section.”
