In the mid 1970's, at age 12, Ron's family moved
from San Diego to interior Alaska in the area now
known as the Wrangell-St. Elias National
Park. Their move to this vast wilderness
developed two passions that have stayed with Ron to this day, his love of the
outdoors and his desire to capture the beauty of the natural world in photographs.
In the
wilderness, pursuing inspiring natural light is where Alaska
based photographer Ron Niebrugge is most at home.
Taking the ordinary and using beautiful natural light to create
the extraordinary has been a passion of Ron’s for many years.
Ron’s images have caught the attention of many and he is
pleased to have among his clients such businesses as National
Geographic, Sports Illustrated, Walt Disney World, Smithsonian,
Continental Airlines, Alaska Airlines, National Park Service, and a
number of large advertising agencies to list a few.
Aside from Ron’s own stock
photo agency, Niebrugge
Images, he is also
represented by seven other stock agencies in six countries.
When not
shooting stock Ron keeps busy with assignment work; past assignments
have taken Ron to remote areas of Kenai Fjords National Park on behalf
of the Park Service, up a 3,000 foot mountain covering a mountain race
for Runner’s World, into Prince William Sound during the winter for
Continental Airlines Magazine, remote areas of the Inside
Passage for Four Seasons Tours and the luxury resort property of Ritz-Carlton in Rancho Mirage.
Ron is equally
comfortable photographing resort property in a major tourist destination
or working with a corporate client as he is working with biologist in
remote parts of the world; and he has experience doing both.
A business background and MBA with a marketing emphasis help him
understand the needs of his clients.
Ron has used Canon
cameras and lenses exclusively for many years.
Currently he is using Canon’s state-of- the-art digital EOS
1Ds Mark III.
Ron
lives with his wife Janine in Seward, Alaska.
