ABOUT BRET

Bret’s passion for photography began when his parents gifted him his first camera - a Canon AV-1 35mm film camera - for his high school graduation. Since then, he has explored a variety of subjects, but wildlife has always held a special place in his heart, with photographing Alaska’s brown bears along the beach standing out as a favorite experience. His photography bucket list includes destinations such as the Galapagos Islands, Banff and Lake Louise, the Pacific Northwest, Acadia National Park, Costa Rica, Yellowstone in winter, New Zealand, Iceland, Ireland, and Australia. Of all the places he has visited so far, Yellowstone remains his favorite. In addition to wildlife, Bret also enjoys capturing the energy and excitement of sports photography, and the personality and connection found in portrait photography.
