Russ Bishop is a California based landscape and travel photographer with an affinity for the high and wild places. Early years spent hiking and climbing in the Sierra Nevada Mountains instilled in him a passion for travel, adventure and discovery - and photography became the natural conduit for expressing his vision. From alpine environments to travel destinations worldwide, his goal is to capture the essence and emotion of a place by drawing the viewer into the frame as an active participant in the journey. His award-winning imagery can be seen in advertisements, posters, books, and international publications with clients that include National Geographic, Sierra Club, GEO, Sony Music, Sunset, and Random House.
