About Steve Somerville
Welcome to my fine art photography website. Images are organized by theme in the Galleries section, probably the easiest way to navigate through this site. I hope you like them. Feel free to leave comments. Please contact me with details if you have specific home or office decor needs.
My backstory:
Since junior grade school I'd been diligently studying the photos in newspapers as well as Sports Illustrated and National Geographic magazines and decided I wanted to try my eye at becoming a great photographer. Not really grasping the depth of this thinking at the time I ventured ahead anyway.
In 1984 I went to London, England where I became a darkroom technician at a photographic agency called Colorsport, a company that distributed their photographs to publications all around the world. My job was to manually print black & white photos, process and copy colour slide photos, and send them off by post or courier to these publications (digital cameras, Photoshop, email and the internet weren't around then). But the bonus was that they sent me to photograph soccer, rugby, athletics, boxing and cricket matches. They handed me two well-used Nikons, a bunch of lenses, a beat up old camera bag and some black & white film. My first assignment was with Colin "Big C" Elsey, a renowned rugby photographer (google him) who showed me how to load film quickly, properly hold the camera with the big lens and anticipate where to be for the next play without getting bowled over by 250-lb. players. I was impressed by his fast-thinking abilities and reaction skills and tried my best to emulate him. One of my photos from this assignment was published in the national Daily Telegraph newspaper. I was thrilled. Still there was much more to learn. I continued venturing ahead.
I returned to Toronto in 1986 and immediately began freelancing with the Hockey News, Toronto Sun and other publications, while photographing stock images of nature and wildlife. I landed a part-time job as a news photographer with Metroland Publishing newspapers, a division of the Torstar Corporation. I maintained my freelance work photographing for several publications and Colorsport. Assignments included covering the NFL, NHL and the Calgary Olympics.
In the meantime, I introduced travel and adventure writing to my skill set and had articles and photos published in the Ottawa Citizen, Toronto Sun, Explore magazine, Travel Holiday magazine, TorStar publications, and many others. Google: Prowling Lions Steve Somerville, for my series of travel articles on African wildlife..
Today I shoot stock images of abstracts, nature and wildlife, and also work in graphite, creating detailed fine art originals - many of which are presented here.
Thanks for visiting, I hope you enjoy it all.
Venturing ahead, Steve Somerville
