Image of me and camera.jpg

What started as a hobby has become a passion.

The diversity, colors and beauty of wildlife and nature, from epic landscapes to the big worlds that exist in the smallest of gardens, amaze me. I like to explore and capture compelling images of whatever I discover along the way. My other passion - golf - also allows me to enjoy the natural beauty of the great outdoors.

This site serves as a virtual gallery of some of my favorite images. I’ve also had my images displayed in local art galleries and participated in art shows, and will post any future appearances here.

I’ve had articles and some of my images published in Nature Photographer Magazine. And I was proud to have an image selected for the cover of Till The Dark Angel Comes by William S. King, a history of abolitionism leading up to The Civil War. This dark, shadowy image of the Allegheny Mountains seemed to fit the sobering account and places the reader near where much of the action occurs.

If you’re interested in using or purchasing any of my images, or if you simply have questions about them, please contact me at info@rayparisiphotography.com. Or if you simply share the same passions for photography and nature, I would love to hear from you. Note: Golf-related images are not available for sale.
