I don&#8217;t have a mission statement per se, but I do try to convey the feeling of being in nature to my viewers. I want people to feel as if they are there with me, regardless of the location. It could be a mountain waterfall 12 miles from any streets or roads or it could be a scenic pull-off I encountered when driving through a state park. I want people to see, feel and appreciate nature and our magnificent American landscapes. \u201c<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">White got into photography when he was 12, and he\u2019s been taking pictures ever since. &#8220;My mom got a free Vivitar 35mm point-and-shoot as a premium for taking out a magazine subscription,&#8221; recalls White,<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;&#8220;<\/span>and I used it to photograph my friends and <\/span><span class=\"s2\">our<\/span><span class=\"s1\"> skateboarding exploits.&nbsp;<\/span>So my first subject was sports, and as soon as I started using the camera and getting the film developed I knew photography was my passion.&#8221;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_48367\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-48367\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-48367\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Sunrise-over-Nubble-Light_1.jpg\" alt=\"landscape photography Darren White\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Sunrise-over-Nubble-Light_1.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Sunrise-over-Nubble-Light_1-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-48367\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Sunrise over the Nubble Light lighthouse in York, Maine.&nbsp; Nikon D810, Sigma 24-105mm ART at 24mm, ISO 100, f\/7.1, 30 sec.&nbsp;(Photo by Darren White)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_48368\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-48368\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-48368\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Sunset-Dance.jpg\" alt=\"landscape photography Darren White\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Sunset-Dance.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Sunset-Dance-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-48368\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">A winter sunset over the beaches of Bandon, Oregon.

The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/when-you-should-quit-your-day-job-for-a-full-time-photography-career\">decision to become a full-time photographer<\/a> came when he and his wife decided to move from the Pacific Northwest to Colorado.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_48365\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-48365\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-48365\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Oxbows-Autumn_1.jpg\" alt=\"landscape photography Darren White\" width=\"1000\" height=\"668\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Oxbows-Autumn_1.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Oxbows-Autumn_1-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-48365\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Fall colors in the early morning light from Oxbow Bend, Grand Teton National Park.&nbsp;Nikon D810, Sigma 24-104mm ART at 105mm, ISO 64, f\/5.6, 1\/250 sec.

By becoming a full-time photographer, I had more time to really build and market my work, and everything kind of fell into place.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">&#8220;I feel that in one way or another, all photographers use photography as a means of expression,&#8221; observes White. &#8220;I started shooting landscapes seriously when I was 16 and had my driver&#8217;s license.

I think photography came naturally, since my parents were both artists in their own way. My father was very good at leather crafting and my mother was a beautician. I took a photography class in junior high school when I was in 7th grade and loved being able to use the manual cameras. In high school I was a photographer for the school newspaper and I was Chief Photographer for the yearbook. I spent a lot of time in the darkroom developing and printing images. I shot everything from kids in the hall to all the sports.

I like how easy their menus are to use and because the D810 is such a well-rounded camera, it&#8217;s my favorite. It turns out large, high-res files that I can print big or crop, I can shoot any time of the day and still get great images, and it&#8217;s great for astrophotography. As for the lenses, I can honestly say that over the past 25 years I&#8217;ve used a lot of lenses and it just seemed like I had issues with each brand. When I acquired the Nikon D810 I also purchased the Sigma 24-105 to go with it. Right out of the box I was blown away with the ease of use and the image quality. It was the sharpest lens I\u2019d ever used for landscapes. As Sigma came out with more lenses I\u2019d rent them and give them a try and I really couldn&#8217;t believe how good they were. I now own 6 Sigma Lenses, I\u2019m delighted with each and every one of them, and I plan to get more.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_48355\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-48355\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-48355\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Comet-Storm-Astro-Mag_1.jpg\" alt=\"landscape photography Darren White\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Comet-Storm-Astro-Mag_1.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Comet-Storm-Astro-Mag_1-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-48355\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Milky Way rising over Eleven Mile Reservoir near Lake George, Colorado.

Most of my work is fairly straightforward, and while some is built on visions in my head, 90 percent of my images are basic shoot-and-process. Perhaps 10 percent I would call creative visions meaning that I\u2019m creating scenes that don&#8217;t exist in the real world.

No matter where I&#8217;m traveling, I\u2019m always trying to find a way to incorporate photography into my time there. I spend a lot of time planning and scouting locations. I use Google Earth and PhotoPills to plan my night shoots from home. It sounds lazy, but when the tools are at your fingertips why not use them?<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;<\/span>I know if a location will be good for a Milky Way shoot just by the direction the subject is facing. I also know what time of year will be best based on the direction. Every subject has an optimal time to be photographed and we landscape photographers can now do most of the planning here at home, which makes our time in the field much more productive.&#8221;&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_48351\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-48351\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-48351\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Autumns-Breath_1.jpg\" alt=\"landscape photography Darren White\" width=\"1000\" height=\"668\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Autumns-Breath_1.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/Autumns-Breath_1-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-48351\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Sunrise over Longs Peak, Rocky Mountain National Park overlooking Bear Lake at the peak of fall color.&nbsp;Nikon D810, Sigma 24-105mm ART at 28mm,&nbsp;ISO 100, f\/10, 1\/15 sec. (Photo by Darren White)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">While many other photographers spend untold hours post-processing a single image, White says he spends about 15 to 20 minutes maximum on any single image. When he &#8220;builds a photograph,&#8221; he takes various parts from one image and various parts from another and combines them seamlessly into one unique scene.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">&#8220;Lots of folks have mixed feelings about this because so many people feel that photography is supposed to be about<i> reality,<\/i>&#8221; he says. &#8220;In my opinion, our sensors are now our canvases and we can paint on them with any kind of light we want to create whatever we want. I know how to combine good images into a single compelling shot. I know how to read my histograms for the best possible exposure. I have done that for many years, and now I\u2019m constantly striving to take things to a new level. I am always learning new things.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s1\">To find out more about Darren White and see more of his images, visit his Instagram <a href=\"http:\/\/www.instagram.com\/darren_white_photography\">@darren_white_photography<\/a>, his <a href=\"http:\/\/www.darrenwhitephotography.com\">gallery<\/a>, his <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nightphotographyworkshop.com\">workshops<\/a>, and his <a href=\"http:\/\/darrenwhiteblog.com\">blog<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Darren White is a nationally acclaimed artist best known for his spectacular landscape images of the Mountain West that convey the awesome grandeur of the natural world.
