Nearly 10,000 years ago, rising sea levels filled a meteor impact crater to form the Chesapeake Bay. Cameron Davidson has spent the last 20 years creating a portrait of the Chesapeake from the air, revealing man's impact on the land and the water. The view from this privileged vantage point yields an abstract beauty that is seldom seen, from the seven bends of the Shenandoah River to the important marshlands and islands of the watershed, spanning six states, from Virginia to New York.

"To call Cameron an aerial photographer is an injustice. His work is bold, colorful and always has a strong sense of design. Above all he also has immense passion..."  Seth Resnick

Cameron Davidson is an aerial and location portrait photographer who shoots for a variety print publication, including Vanity Fair, National Geographic and Smithsonian. His work has been profiled in Communication Arts, Photo Design and Print Magazine. His awards include CA Photo Annual, Graphis Photo, Print Design Annual and the Pictures of the Year competition. He has published five books of photography.

"It defies imagination to ponder just how many hundreds of hours Cameron Davidson spent aloft...He takes us there with him, every hour of the day, every season, in every kind of beautiful light." David Burnette
