Dusty Doddridge

Dusty Doddridge is a landscape photographer based in the beautiful rolling hills of Middle Tennessee in the vibrant city of Nashville.  He enjoys connecting with others and helping photographers achieve their artistic goals through writing, speaking and leading workshops in some amazing landscapes around the world. Fine prints are the ultimate expression of a landscape photograph and Dusty feels honored to share prints of his work in homes and businesses.

In 2010, Dusty launched his photography business which allows him the opportunity to share outdoor adventure and creative expression with others through workshops, writing/speaking, and making fine prints.

“Wild areas are beautiful beyond words and must be experienced. They border between the real and unreal and always contain mystery and adventure.”

During this presentation Dusty will be describing his process for capturing magnificent trees and forestscapes.
