Portfolio Project – (In Person) Final Review, Group 2 with Brian Zwit

The final review for Group 2 of the Portfolio Project will be held with Brian Zwit on Tuesday, May 19.

Over 40 years ago, Brian discovered that photography provided a powerful means for expressing his vision of the world. Over the years, his love of the outdoors and photography, as well as an aptitude for computer technology, have morphed into a passion (some would say “obsession”) for capturing the elegance and majesty of the unique landscapes and flora of the United States. While the pursuit of nature takes him all over the continent, he favors the West, Northeast, mid-Atlantic, and Canada’s Eastern Provinces and, wherever he is, his love of hiking and backpacking takes him far beyond populated areas into settings which few people visit.

In addition to landscape photography, Brian is always experimenting with other genres of photography and has accumulated thousands of architectural, travel, dog, and city and street life images. During the pandemic, Brian learned film-making and is working on a couple of film projects. Lately, he has become particularly enamored with instant photography and now owns way too many instant cameras. Brian’s images are in private residences and corporate offices, and have appeared in regional magazines. Corporate clients have also used his images for promotional and internal publications.

Brian has been teaching workshops, field trips, and classes, and speaking to camera clubs, schools, and other nonprofis as well as for-profit entities for over 15 years. He has taught Lightroom to over 1000 students. Brian is well-known for his ability to distill complex topics to their essence and explain them in simple, easy-to-understand ways. He is a recognized expert in digital workflow with Lightroom, Photoshop, Nik software, and other editing applications.
