“Photography is a love affair with life”

Burk Uzzel

I love people! And it shows. The best way to photograph life is to love life and the people that make life happen. I have been posing and directing people for over 42 years and I have learned over the years that the best way to get the most out of people is to be respectful and kind. I work to understand the people I am working with first and then work to create the image. Everyone has a story and I work to know who my subject is first before pulling the cameras out. Most folks tell me they love working with me and thank me for making them feel special. It’s a gift.

Pursuing The Art of Photography

You can feel a great photo the second you lay eyes on it. My images stand out in the crowd because it took me 42 years to capture it.

When there’s a moment in time as special as this, you can’t afford to miss it! This is Mona and she loves horses like no other. My 41 years of experience allows me to hit my targets each and every time.
