Member’s Gallery – Prints (Virtually): Four Season in the Appalachian Highlands with David Lattanzi

For a few weeks every year, nature photographers converge on the Appalachian Mountains to capture the beautiful fall foliage. Yet this unique region offers year-round opportunities for image making, as Dave hopes to convey to you.

Dave Lattanzi got into photography over 20 years ago after finding his mother’s old Canon AE-1, primarily to impress his girlfriend. His love of photography has lasted far longer than that relationship. His photographic journey started with traditional black and white darkroom processes that still influence the way he shoots today.

He has a love of both nature and travel photography, often in combination. He has been fortunate enough to travel the world with his camera, having visited 50 states, 5 continents, and more countries than he can count. But his heart belongs to the West Virginia highlands, and he is devoted to capturing the unique beauty of those lands. He counts Fay Godwin, Bruce Percy, Clyde Butcher, and Galen Rowell among the myriad photographers that have inspired him over the years. He has been a member of NVPS since 2018.
