TJ Vissing

Photographer TJ Vissing has traveled around the world documenting its landscapes and capturing eye-catching fine art images. He says that the process of being a photographer on the road forces you to slow down and look with intention while searching for the perfect angle and light.

Over the years, TJ has spent hours observing the natural world, from waves breaking in Hawaii to clouds moving over the mountains of Peru. The result? Landscape images that are completely natural, photorealistic depictions of the beauty of the natural world around us.

Eclectic Elephant Photography

The artist behind Electric Elephant Photography describes himself as “an engineer from Ohio trying to experience everything the world has to offer.”

Through social media, he showcases his inspiring landscape images from as far afield as Kentucky, Colorado, Arizona, and Nevada. From the jagged peaks of Colorado Springs to the Ohio countryside blanketed in snow, he takes the viewer on a journey across the United States, with the occasional building or monument thrown into the gallery's mix.

Derek Dammann Landscape Photography

Based in Cincinnati, Derek Dammann is one of the city’s most well-respected landscape photographers; his work has toured around the United States. His portfolio includes breathtaking images from Iceland and the Virgin Islands, as well as scenes much closer to home.

The quality of Derek’s work is second-to-none, with brilliant colors and intricate detailing in all of his shots. We particularly love his after-dark work using long exposures for a burst of light and color.

Tony Henson Photography

Tony Henson is a Liberty Township-based landscape photographer who also offers headshots and portraits throughout the Cincinnati and Dayton areas. His landscape images are expertly composed, with the use of wide-angle lenses inviting you into the frame.

Aside from breathtaking shots of the natural world, Tony is also an expert at cityscapes, documenting theatres, monumental buildings, and bustling streets across the United States. Particularly creative are his shots of camera LCD screens amidst nighttime scenes.

Cincy Images

Jayson Gomes is the man behind the camera of Cincy Images, which specializes in scenes of Cincinnati. He established the business back in 2003 and has since built up a collection of around 7,000 images across hundreds of online galleries.

If you’ve ever wanted to see The Queen City from multiple angles, Jayson’s website is the place to go. His work has been featured in several local publications, as well as being showcased in buildings across Cincinnati.

Steve Zeinner

Steve Zeinner is not only a highly experienced landscape photographer but a PROCAM and Nikon USA Ambassador. His photographic journey was inspired by his love of action sports and a desire to document his adventures.

Aside from selling landscape prints online, Steve also runs private workshops to help aspiring photographers hone their skills. He loves everything from urban scenes to wildlife and aerial photography, as well as underwater shots.

Ben Wright Photography

Born and raised in Cincinnati, Ben is a relatively new photographer – but you wouldn’t guess it at the quality of his work. He not only shoots weddings, real estate listings, and portraits but also cityscapes and the natural world.

We love the expansive views he offers, whether it’s of the White Sands National Monument or the sparkling waters of Lake Tahoe. In describing his approach and style, Ben does "whatever feels right in my head." The young photographer has yet to find a uniform look for his work and likes to keep it fresh.  

Mark Tepe Photography

While Mark Tepe describes himself as an architectural and interior photographer, we also know that his landscape work is exceptional. Over the years, he has traveled everywhere from Maui to the Grand Tetons capturing inspiring shots of what he sees.

Closer to home, Mark regularly aims his lens at Cincinnati streets, bridges, and bars to document the buzz and energy of the downtown area. His calm and natural landscape photography is contrasted against the hard work it takes to get such shots.
