Autorenporträt

Randall Sanger is a West Virginia-based landscape photographer. Through his photography, his ultimate desire is to glorify God's creation and showcase the natural beauty of West Virginia, and inspire others to preserve and protect the many special places found in the Mountain State. For over 20 years Randall has been traipsing about West Virginia in search of grand vistas, majestic waterfalls, and intimate forest scenes. He spends most of his time exploring and photographing the amazingly beautiful scenery found in the New River Gorge National River, the Monongahela National Forest, the Canaan Valley National Wildlife Refuge, and the various state parks and wildlife management areas throughout the state. Randall is coauthor of the multi-award-winning book West Virginia Waterfalls: The New River Gorge. He conducts photography workshops throughout West Virginia and beyond. His images have appeared in print and digital publications (both regional and national), are in private and corporate collections, and have been used for marketing and corporate recruitment. He works with several advertising/marketing agencies, with duties ranging from capturing specific images for various publications to covering events like the National Boy Scout Jamboree, and he was photographer in residence for the Canaan Valley National Wildlife Refuge. Randall is a juried fine arts photographer with Tamarack: The Best of West Virginia, located in Beckley, and his work can also be viewed at the Buxton and Landstreet Gallery in Thomas, West Virginia. He resides in Williamson with his wife, Melissa, daughter, Hannah, and trusty hiking companion Rocky, a mixed-breed dog.
