Hello steemit community! I hope to be a regular poster of visual entertainment. If you are a fan of Lake Tahoe and/or landscape photography, you might enjoy my posts... I'm happy to have found this site!
I am Scott Thompson, of Scott Shots Photography. I have been a professional photographer for nearly 20 years. In 2002, I moved to the Lake Tahoe, California/Nevada area with my wife and son where I was able to shift my "focus" to my landscape photography career. I primarily photograph the Tahoe area but I occasionally travel for photos too. My landscape images have been licensed countless times by local publications and small businesses. I also shoot a ton of real estate photography and produce virtual tours for clients in the area.
Oh yeah! I also print my own big prints on an Epson 9900 and sell my prints out of local galleries, businesses, and off my website https://www.ScottShotsPhoto.com. I know most of you probably aren't in need of big limited edition prints so I will try not to be too spammy here (I'll save those annoying sponsored posts for faceboo) I'm also an author of two photo books and I hope to work on another one soon.
A bit more about me before I shift the attention to my work... I'm 41, married, I have a son who will be starting college next year (film school), our old awesome dog recently passed away. Besides photography and spending time with my family, I also love to hike, backpack, camp, snowboard, mountain bike, fish, and kayak - the typical Tahoe dad I guess.
I'm usually very open about locations, gear I use, camera setting, and more. If you have any questions about my images that I didn't answer in the post, please ask in the comments. Here are some images below so you can see what you are in for if you follow me.
Thanks again steemit community for checking out my work. I hope to start finding lots of interesting people to follow and interact with. If you know anybody that I should be following, please let me know. Also, I'm a noob here. I've read a lot about steemit recently but please let me know if you have any advice or if I break any steem-etiquette. Cheers!
Scott Thompson
