DARRON FRANTA PHOTOGRAPHY:
For just about as long as I can remember, photography has been a part of my life. Something I have always felt drawn towards. I think the impetus was the National Geographic, photography and travel magazines my aunt would hand-down to me as a young boy. Thanks to my mom, my first camera, a Kodak Colorburst 50 was acquired when I was around 10 years old and I can remember always needing more instamatic film!
My passion for photography is now fueled for my re-discovered love for travel, exploration, adventure, continued learning and nature’s beauty. Traveling to amazing, unique destinations and artfully capturing the views and the moments is what drives me. Having first been moved by the vistas, grand landscapes and canyons of the desert southwest, I’ve committed myself to explore and share all that I can. Nothing makes me happier than bringing these scenes and my artistic visions into people’s personal homes or workspaces so that they too can enjoy the outdoors ... indoors.
