ABOUT

With Argus 75 box camera at age two . . .

John Kaminski, Photographer

I've been fascinated with cameras from a very young age.

Today I strive to apply that same sense of fascination to my photography. As an "observational photographer," I seek to observe, find a perspective and preserve a moment in time. If the image has a twist, a juxtaposition, something unexpected or humorous, that's even better.

I'm happy and fully engaged with life when roaming the streets, or some festival or event, camera at the ready looking for those moments and images.

This website is to share some of that with you.

Training, Awards and Exhibitions

I've studied photography at the Maine College of Art and the Maine Media Workshops and College.

My work has received awards three times at the annual Maine Photography Show, including first place Black and White (2017).

I've also shown at:

Fogfest Arts Festival (by invitation) , Campobello, New Brunswick, Canada

Praxis Gallery, The Decisive Moment (juried), Minneapolis, Minnesota.
