WMSmith  > Bio > About me
First off, I would like to thank you for taking the time to look at my site. I appreciate it.


For some strange reason I have always looked at things different than most people.
I have always been interested in art, painting, drawing, music and all kinds of cool
and unique things. If it is creative in some way, I just tend to gravitate towards it.

For a few years of my life I worked as a billboard painter in Las Vegas and had the
opportunity to work with some amazing artists both traditional and graphic.(try standing on a
12” wide plank of wood 75’ in the air and painting an image 10 times your size)………..yup crazy.

Some of my passions are DH Mountain biking, music, guitar and my kids.
I like to think of myself as not just a guy who captures images, but a person
who has done many of the things I shoot and has a good athletes perspective.

I hit my local downhill trails every chance I get and have been fortunate to meet an
amazing amount of friends through these two wheeled works of art we call our bikes.

So, how did I get into this? I guess you could say my Mom & Dad got me into photography and art.
My Dad was always messing around with some kind of new gear or shooting pictures of things
when I was a kid, and my Mom is very creative, with a great eye for color. My Dad was also the guy
who showed me how to draw and how to look at things and find the "art” in normal things or the
picture inside the picture.

My parents have always and continue to encouraged me in everything I do.

Thanks Mom & Dad.


I hope that when you look at my shots you see the art in them as I do.

Thanks for looking,
Wil
