The American Southwest has long attracted artists eager to record its magnificent forms, light, and spirit. Photographers such as Timothy O’Sullivan, Edward Weston, Ansel Adams, Paul Strand, Eliot Porter, Laura Gilpin, and contemporary master David Michael Kennedy have traveled the deserts and mountains of New Mexico to make images of this magical place.

David’s approach to landscape photography focuses on the photographer’s relationship to the land. On daily field trips down back roads, we search for the elusive magic that lies beyond the obvious. David prefers to “chase the light” rather than plan a definite itinerary, because you never know how New Mexico’s ever-changing weather will affect the light and the skies.
