Growing up in a rural beach town, Stratton was enamored by the magic of his surroundings from a young age. Photography was also deeply integrated into his roots; his great grandmother was one of the first-ever models for Kodak, and his grandmother worked on the original program of Photoshop. Stratton took these passions and has traveled to over 20 countries around the world capturing and collecting images that feed his soul. Images span throughout the United States from California to New York City…from the streets of London to Argentina and Chile.

From the Artist... Whatever the subject, Douglas Stratton’s intent is the same… capturing the essence of his surroundings. The artist depicts not just beautiful compositions and intriguing scenes but seeks to transport the viewer into the ambiance of the place itself.  He captures multiple levels of exposure in each photograph, reviving the dynamic range of light that gets lost in translation between man and machine.
