From 2002 to 2008, he threw himself into learning as much as possible about photography and during that time he slowly developed a group of clients as he gained more experience.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Finally, in 2008, my wife kicked me in the butt and just said &#8216;go for it!'&#8221; he recalls &#8220;So, decided to take a big leap of faith and give full-time photography a go, with a promise to myself, and my wife, that I\u2019d go back to a more conventional line of work if I couldn\u2019t make a career happen.

I was mostly just making snapshots at that point, but those snapshots made me feel something special. My magic moment, however, was that when, as a complete beginner, I had the opportunity to head out onto the Arctic Ocean and spend a couple days assisting and shooting alongside the legendary British polar photographer, Martin Hartley. Seeing how he didn\u2019t just capture snapshots but told entire stories within frames&#8230; well let\u2019s just say that inspired me beyond words. I realized looking at his photographs that photography could be art, it could be a dream profession, and it could actually change the world.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;I realized looking at [Martin Hartley&#8217;s] photographs that photography could be art, it could be a dream profession, and it could actually change the world.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Dave Brosha was almost entirely self-taught as his photography progressed but he\u2019s always struggled with the notion of being self-taught. &#8220;I didn\u2019t have any formal training,&#8221; he notes, &#8220;but I\u2019ve learned an endless amount from reading the words and studying the photographs of some of my heroes in photography, including Joe McNally, Galen Rowell, Annie Leibovitz, Martin Hartley, and Sebastiao Salgado. Some of their individual images represent to me an entire classroom of learning if you take the time to study and appreciate them. I guess that\u2019s been my strongest form of learning: studying images by those I admire, and trying to mentally \u2018reverse-engineer\u2019 them, asking myself \u2018how the heck did they possibly do that?\u2019, which is usually followed by \u2018I want to do that.\u2019 It\u2019s an incredible educational motivator.&#8221;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_54879\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-54879\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-54879\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/dbrosha-20.jpg\" alt=\"Dave Brosha photography\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/dbrosha-20.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/dbrosha-20-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-54879\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">&#8220;The Wanderer&#8221; \u2014 Tom Smitheringale, The Sahara, Egypt (Photo by Dave Brosha)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_54875\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-54875\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-54875\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/dbrosha-24.jpg\" alt=\"Dave Brosha photography\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/dbrosha-24.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/dbrosha-24-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-54875\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">&#8220;Frequency: North&#8221; \u2014 Northwest Territories (Photo by Dave Brosha)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>But when it comes to categorizing his photography, Brosha pushes back because he sees himself as a box filled with every imaginable genre.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I got my serious start in photography in a small town of about 20,000 people (Yellowknife, Northwest Territories) and it wasn\u2019t a large enough place to really specialize,&#8221; he adds. &#8220;This was fine by me, however, as I\u2019ve always been interested in all genres of photography and I spend my time almost equally doing landscape, portraiture, commercial, astrophotography, and editorial.

It\u2019s an excellent lens for wide-angle compositions and a superb astro lens\u2026 but I also find myself making environmental portraits with it as well!&nbsp; Finally, as I travel yearly to some of the world\u2019s greatest bastions of wildlife, Africa and Antarctica, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/sg150600snk.html\">Sigma 150-600mm f\/5-6.3 Sport<\/a> is my lens of choice for capturing a diverse range of animals and it\u2019s built-in OS optical stabilization gives me the freedom to capture razor sharp pictures handheld even at super-telephoto focal lengths.

I guess my driving force in each and every shoot is to try to search for what is unique in a scene, or with a personality. I\u2019m not looking to shoot within a recipe or a cookie-cutter style that I\u2019ve preconceived, but rather to create a new style with each shoot. It\u2019s a process of exploration, and that\u2019s what drives me and my body of work \u2014 to push myself to shoot differently today than I did yesterday; to push my eye and my comfort level and my creativity to new places. I don\u2019t always succeed in this quest by any means, but I love the challenge of it all \u2014 and it makes me artistically satisfied even to make the attempt.&#8221;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Photography, to me, is a deeply personal artistic tool to enact emotions in others \u2014 to wake people up to the importance of this shared space we live in \u2014 and that humans all around us and on the other side of the world&#8230; are all important.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Brosha describes his general approach to his art as &#8220;heartfelt,&#8221; and he expresses this view with his signature passion, &#8220;I care deeply about what I do and the subjects that give their time to me. I feel like I owe them to photograph as passionately and fully as I can, and to give as much or more of me in the artistic process as they gift to me. I feel the same way when I\u2019m photographing alone in nature: photography is a privilege and I feel very fortunate for the opportunities I\u2019ve had to make a career out of it. I want to treat nature with respect and really try to capture images that scream from the rooftops just how beautiful this planet is and why we should all give a damn about it. Photography, to me, is a deeply personal artistic tool to enact emotions in others \u2014 to wake people up to the importance of this shared space we live in \u2014 and that humans all around us and on the other side of the world&#8230; are all important.&#8221;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_54871\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-54871\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-54871\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/dbrosha-27.jpg\" alt=\"Dave Brosha photography\" width=\"1000\" height=\"613\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/dbrosha-27.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/dbrosha-27-300x184.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-54871\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">&#8220;The World Out There&#8221; \u2014 self-portrait, Iceland (Photo by Dave Brosha)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_54866\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-54866\" style=\"width: 643px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-54866\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/dbrosha-30.jpg\" alt=\"Dave Brosha photography\" width=\"643\" height=\"1000\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/dbrosha-30.jpg 643w, https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/dbrosha-30-193x300.jpg 193w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 643px) 100vw, 643px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-54866\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">&#8220;Stargazing&#8221; \u2014 Self-portrait, The Pinnacles, Australia (Photo by Dave Brosha)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>But for Brosha&#8217;s evolving work, there is no conclusion to this ongoing process of transformation.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I find my interest in photography actually shifts several times a year,&#8221; he notes. &#8220;I tend to take three or four themes every year and work those themes \u2014 sometimes concurrently, sometimes consecutively \u2014 until my brain and creative soul needs a shift. I\u2019ve been on this pattern for several years now and can foresee following it for a number of years to come. I work on what I\u2019m passionate about at a given time and place, but am not afraid to shift my work on a dime if something else strikes me at a particular time in my life.\u201d In short, Dave Brosha is a consummate photographic artist on a lifelong voyage of discovery so it is hardly surprising that he is always seeking and creating something new and compelling.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h4>Diving deeper into Brosha&#8217;s portfolio:<\/h4>\n<figure id=\"attachment_54867\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-54867\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-54867\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/dbrosha-31.jpg\" alt=\"Dave Brosha photography\" width=\"1000\" height=\"644\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/dbrosha-31.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/dbrosha-31-300x193.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-54867\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">&#8220;You Are My Whole World&#8221; \u2014 self-portrait, The Isle of Skye, Scotland (Photo by Dave Brosha)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&#8220;I am heavily influenced by the late, great Galen Rowell in the landscape realm, and one thing that I always appreciated about his body of work was he wasn\u2019t afraid to show the relationship of humanity in the natural world,&#8221; he recalls. &#8220;That\u2019s always stuck with me: when I head into nature, it\u2019s often a religious experience for me. I feel small in this vast, beautiful planet but rather than feeling \u2018small\u2019 with negative connotations, rather, it\u2019s the opposite for me. I feel in awe by the world around me \u2014 I feel respect. Through my images I hope to convey some of these feelings: the awe and the mystery of nature and that we can co-exist with it and respect it.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_54892\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-54892\" style=\"width: 878px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-54892\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/dbrosha-5.jpg\" alt=\"Dave Brosha photography\" width=\"878\" height=\"1000\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/dbrosha-5.jpg 878w, https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/dbrosha-5-263x300.jpg 263w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 878px) 100vw, 878px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-54892\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">&#8220;The Last Trapper&#8221; \u2014 Roch Boivin, The Yukon (Photo by Dave Brosha)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&#8220;This man \u2014 Roch \u2014 is the real deal,&#8221; Brosha notes of the photo above. &#8220;Just a character that lives a very traditional, off-the-grid lifestyle.&nbsp; With many portrait subjects you spend a great deal of time finding the perfect environment in which to capture their personality:&nbsp; with him all I needed was simply and beautifully\u2026him.&nbsp; He had presence and power and soul.&nbsp; A portrait photographer\u2019s dream!\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_54895\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-54895\" style=\"width: 667px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-54895\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/dbrosha-3.jpg\" alt=\"Dave Brosha photography\" width=\"667\" height=\"1000\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/dbrosha-3.jpg 667w, https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/dbrosha-3-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 667px) 100vw, 667px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-54895\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">&#8220;A Warrior&#8217;s Soul&#8221; \u2014 Danny Boy Stephens, Northwest Territories (Photo by Dave Brosha)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&#8220;Daniel &#8216;Danny Boy&#8217; Stephens was one of the more interesting subjects I\u2019ve photographed,&#8221; he adds. &#8220;He&#8217;s an indigenous Mi\u2019kmaq from Canada\u2019s East Coast, but he at one time was a sniper in the U.S. Marines.
