My name is Jamie Daubendiek and I was first intrigued by photography from my grandpa who always had his film camera out taking pictures throughout my childhood. From my initial curiosity, I took a class in photography during high school where I learned all of the basics. When I attended Luther College I took another photography class and also had my first digital camera which helped me take a lot of memorable photographs. During that same time I completed the New York Institute of Photography. After college I moved out to Colorado and had a wonderful experience taking pictures of the gorgeous scenery through all of the seasons. I have recently moved back to Iowa and I enjoy taking landscape photographs wherever I travel. I find it fascinating that each photograph that is taken is one moment in time that can never be exactly reproduced again.

Nature macro photography. I began my adventure with macro photography about eight years ago. I fell in love with the fascinating and amazing world of nature up close. It never gets boring for me as I continually make new"discoveries" through my lens. I'm often told that I have a unique perspective to which I respond, "just look a little closer and see what I see". From the brilliant color of flowers to comical bugs to the complex world of fungus, macro photography allows me to discover the intricate beauty that exists everywhere in nature.

I am a self taught photographer and have been taking pictures for over 35 years. Photography is a passion of mine. Photography allows me to capture the world around me and share it with others. I print, mat and frame my own work. I am a fine-art nature and landscape photographer. If my photography has a mission, it is this: present images and environments with a unique perspective and awesome light. It may be a lonesome, snow-covered tree on an isolated farm or the bright iridescence of a spring daffodil. My hope is that these images will stir up unexpected feelings and thoughts in you, the viewer.
