About the
Photographer
William Meyer
was born and raised in St. Louis, Missouri. He moved to San Francisco
in 1960 and became a career in the engineering field. Having always
had an interest in art and graphic design, it was in 1980 that
he began taking a few basic courses in photography & printing.
He found that working with the camera provided an exciting and
stimulating diversion from his then 20-year engineering career.
For the most
part, Bill is self-taught, learning his craft through his constant
involvement and perfecting his vision through trial and error.
His love for the natural world and his dedication to the art form
show in his work. He has an understanding of lighting and composition
that results in images that are strong, yet simple and clean.
The many years of practicing his craft have produced a body of
work that is both vast and diverse.
Bill recently
relocated to historic Louisiana, Missouri. As one of the many
artists and craftsmen moving into the area, he finds that it is
an ideal place to continue his photographic work.
At
this time, Bill is unable to respond to original photograph orders
due to a serious accident. He has, however, self published a line
of unique greeting cards showcasing his Angel series.
