About
Bill started out as the staff photographer for In-Fisherman. During these formative years he focused on all aspects of photographing fish, including still photos, film and video. He set up the in-house darkroom and helped establish the fishing photograph as an educational tool. His next stop was Creative Publishing International, where he continued to develop a unique eye for live-action sporting photography especially in the freshwater fishing arena. Recreating and capturing freshwater environments in a glass-sided photography tank resulted in stunning images of trout, pan fish, bass and walleye. His extensive work 'on location' during these years honed and developed a unique talent for explosive, live action photography including spectacular fish jumps, dramatic landing shots and beautiful scenics that capture the excitement and serenity of sport fishing. As a cinema photographer, Bill has filmed and produced product commercials for Rapala, In-Fisherman television and shot film for National Geographic.
Bill?s current passion is documentary-style still-photo essays, surrounding the topic of foraging for edibles from the wild. His Native American wild ricing series has captured the entire cycle of ricing from dormant beds under the ice to harvesting, finishing and to the table, Bill?s images are a comprehensive record of a unique lifestyle and life cycle. Images from this photo series have been featured in two Twin Cities (MN) gallery exhibits.
