Hello,
My name is Walt Sorensen Owner and photographer at Walt's Photos. I'm glad to take a moment to tell you about me and our company. We are a Advertising photography, Commercial photography, and Micro-Stock Photography Company. We are glad you are here to consider us to fulfill your photographic needs.
I started into photography some 20+ years ago as hobbyist with a growing passion for photography. I loved how singular images could tell complex stories that developed in the viewer's mind. This passion drove me to study photography and resulted in a degree in Visual Art and Design with an emphasis in photography, and eventually to open a professional photography studio.
More recently I have received many professional awards and been involved in number of indevidual and group gallery exhibits. In 2005 I was selected to participate in a artist exchange with Nantou, Taiwan, Where I was privileged to present a lecture about my photography to the Photographic Society of Nantou. Along with being selected as an artist delegate I was also commissioned by West Valley City to create a "Portrait' of the city with the E-Center as a focal point.
As part of the 2007 legend of hidden hollow event produced by Brolly arts. I developed a 27 piece outdoor photographic installation called "Landscapes Including the Hand of Man." The installation was a reflection on things left behind by people in historical locations as well as State, National, and International Parks. The photographic installation is a reminder to pick up our trash and help keep our world a beautiful place.
I have worked as an in-house photographer and photoeditor for several local companies to produce specific long term projects. These long term in-house projects is a great long term service we provide in addition to my Commercial photography services. I am currently involved in one of these long term projects which has resulted in some restriction to the services we provide. As noted on the home page we have restricted new business to Saturday consultations by appointment.
I consider myself a photographic generalist, and a technical expert, where my photography covers a broad range of subjects and styles: from landscapes and portraiture to product and lifestyle. I utilize a wide array of equipment to produce my work depending on the needs of my projects; from traditional 4x5 view cameras to some of the latest digital technology.
The style I shoot the most reflects my ambition to create a story that speaks to the viewer. Simple scenes with little twists in the details that capture "A slice of life."
To better serve my clients, in addtion to working with every job, I have several photographers who work with me on specific projects; either to provide a specific skill or to be a second shooter. Our team of photographers provide our clients with photography our clients love.
