About the Photographer - Marcus W. Reinkensmeyer

Although it is only a part-time avocation at this point, Marcus W. Reinkensmeyer finds himself increasingly involved in landscape and waterfront photography. Recently, he “rediscovered” his passion for photography after a long time away from the fine arts, mainly due to the press of family and other professional activities. Marcus is grateful for the support of family and friends in the revitalization of his photography ventures.

As a long-time avid hiker and cyclist living in Scottsdale , Arizona, Marcus attempts to capture images of remote wilderness areas as well as scenic areas with man-made structures. His work is intended to reflect and celebrate the essential elements of nature, the transient quality of weather and light, and the fragile essence of today's changing environment.

Reinkensmeyer's photographic credits include publications in Shutter Bug , the Photographer's Edge, The Court Manager and a Hurricane Relief Charitable Campaign calendar project for the National Association for Court Management ( www.nacmnet.org ). His work can also be found in a new book, Windswept Landscape: Images from the Arizona - Utah Border, a joint collaboration with two other landscape photographers, www.blurb.com.

In his other “real world” life, Marcus Reinkensmeyer serves as a public sector executive. He holds a Master's Degree in Public Administration from Northern Illinois University , a Bachelor's Degree (Fine Arts and Psychology) from Michigan State University Honors College and a Graduate Fellow of the Institute for Court Management, National Center for State Courts.
