Behind the Scenes with Fine Art Photographer Steve Richard. **Disclaimer: Photography/ Video in this gallery feature the human body in its natural form.
Steve Richard has been plying his trade in the mysterious photographic arts for well over a quarter of a century. Steve is both a stills photographer and a cinematographer, thus bringing an unerring sense of style and composition to all of his work. Steve’s visuals capture the imagination, challenge preconceptions, and merge a classical ethos with urban grit and 21st Century techno-savvy.
Born and raised in a small town in Eastern Canada, Steven took his first photograph at the age of 12, over 37 years ago. Much of the early years were spent developing his craft while working in the various commercial facets of the photography trade. During this time he developed a significant love hate relationship with photography, and actually gave up shooting a number of times. During these down times he has worked as full time musician touring across Canada, a recording studio engineer, a fiber optic network designer, a teacher at Dalhousie University, a cinematographer , and has developed the necessary skills to produce a fine bowl of Tom Ka Guy soup. His passion for photography developed into a full obsession about a decade ago when he decided to only shoot the subjects that would interpret his view of the world. For the most part this meant a combination of humor and beauty mixed with the dark side of life. He now spends most of his fine art focus on dance and bodies in motion.
