Gary Albertson
Fine Art Landscape Photographer
From his earliest memories, Gary has been drawn to the natural beauty of Northwest landscapes. Following 25 years as an award winning graphic designer, including an internationally acclaimed self-published book, "FIRE MOUNTAIN: The Eruptions of Mount Saint Helens," Gary retired from corporate communications. He traveled extensively to Mexico, the Yucatan Peninsula, the Caribbean, and the South Seas. It was on these journeys that he honed his photographic skills.
In 1995 he moved to Camp Sherman on the banks of the Metolius River. This unique volcanic valley became his base for explorations of Oregon’s amazing landscapes to all borders. In 2010, Gary lost ninety percent of his eyesight as a result of pigment dispersion glaucoma. Yet he masterfully continues to capture the raw beauty of Northwest landscapes. But his first true love remains the Metolius Valley, when he explores smaller landscapes on his journey into blindness.
