Vincent J W Koch
Artist

It all started on a nice fall day on the Oregon coast when I was sixteen years old. I decided to go for a stroll down the beach when I saw this beautiful sunset. I just had to try to capture the beauty that I was witnessing, so I picked up the camera and took the shot that proved to be the start of my career. When I found that people were asking to buy this print, and that they truly loved what I had accomplished, I decided that doing what I loved would be an excellent career. Once high school was finished I enrolled in one of the highest acclaimed photographic schools in existence (The New York Institute of Photography). At this point I completed all the technical attributes it takes to make a great photographer. I was in search of taking photographs that I loved: photographs that could really make someone feel true emotion! As a result I shot thousands of photographs and developed the art you see today. When I photograph a subject I find its true beauty and that is what I bring to life. I know that when you look back at my photographs of you and your loved ones in years to come, it will bring back all of the emotion you had when the photograph was first taken!
