Jeff Shoemaker
 
 
I’m Jeff, a 24-year-old photographer and Information Systems graduate from UNR with a passion for capturing moments that last beyond the instant. I first discovered photography in high school through a class that sparked my creativity, and I found myself drawn back to it at the beginning of college. What started as a class project quickly grew into a side hobby — and eventually into something much bigger.
Since then, I’ve explored a wide range of photography, from the energy of marching band performances to the stillness of landscapes, the personality of portraits, and the thrill of aviation and automotive subjects. I especially love experimenting with long exposures, finding new ways to make light and motion tell a story.
For me, photography is about more than just images — it’s about capturing emotion, movement, and perspective in ways that words can’t.

Fact 3
Just like with my photography, I enjoy the simpler things in life - being out and about with friends, good food, and nice views.

Fact 4
I love history, so if we’re out for a city session you will get a complimentary tour guide to distract you from the camera!
