About Brown Cannon III
"I grew up in Denver, Colorado in a house with a darkroom and a pile of National Geographic Magazines. Photography was a hobby for both of my parents who handed me an Asahi Pentax 35mm (Honeywell) when I was 10. And since that time I have used the camera to satisfy my curiosity about the world.

I was the kid who made slide shows of class trips and showed them to the parents (if any of you read this, forgive me for that…) Much of my free time growing up I took pictures, yet it took me a while to decide to turn the "hobby" into my work. It was during a pre med chemistry class that the choice was clear. We had to build a pinhole camera, take a picture (mine was of the clock tower building in downtown Denver) and then write a report about the chemical process by which the image comes to life. Shortly thereafter I found myself at the Art Center College of design.

Since graduating I have concentrated on travel, sports, lifestyle and portraits of people in their environments. I currently reside in Mill Valley, California where I work with companies and magazines from around the world. If I am not behind the camera, I am usually on the mountain or in the surf."
