Originally from Central Illinois, I always assumed I would end up based in Chicago. Instead, though, I came to Austin to attend the University of Texas and just never got around to leaving.
Along with college, I soon became immersed in Austin's commercial photography market by hiring on at a local photography studio. While I continued to work at the studio, I graduated from the University of Texas with a Bachelors of Art in Art. Around this time, my work started to be represented by Swanstock Fine Art Photography Specialists.
Not long after that, I officially started Robert Wood Images on a full time basis, focusing on commercial and editorial work.
As my business grew, I gradually started getting recognition for my personal work. Shows included a solo exhibit in Portland, Oregon, a group show in New York City, and lots of stops in-between.
These days I am almost exclusively focused on creating fine art imagery. My current mood is very much influenced by editorial imagery and my love for creating images with a bit of spontaneity.
For more information about my work, image sales, or anything else, call 512-789-4225 or email robert@robertwoodimages.com.
