January 18 Program: 25 Years of Texas Parks & Wildlife Photography

Our speaker, Earl Nottingham, is considered one of Texas’ preeminent photographers. He attended the Art Institute of Atlanta and earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Photography from East Texas State University.

After operating as a freelance photographer for several years, he took over as chief photographer for the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department in 1996, where he then served for 25 years, retiring in 2021. His assignments for TPWD and its magazine took him to every corner of the state, documenting its landscape, people and historical treasures. Based in Temple, Texas, Earl continues shooting professional assignments and teaching workshops.

Earl will speak about the many ways that TPWD is involved in conservation efforts throughout Texas outdoors and the way photography is used to bring it to the public’s attention through engaging images.

Earl’s book, “Wild Focus” was published December 6, 2021 and is currently available from several online sites including Texas A&M University Press and Amazon.
