Driven by a lasting love and admiration for our natural world, Niel Hayes has been photographing captivating images of landscapes, architecture, and nature for over 20 years. His fine art photography portfolio captures the simplest, most common subjects and transforms them into elegant, breathtaking images.
Niel is a Rocky Mountain native who grew up just outside of Denver in the city of Littleton. After graduating with his undergraduate degree from Brigham Young University, Niel moved to the beautiful Northwest to pursue his Masters in Mechanical Engineering at WSU Vancouver.
Currently Niel and his wife, Dani, live in Atlanta Georgia, where Niel is pursuing his Engineering career. Niel describes his passion for photography as “an excellent creative and technical outlet; combining artistic interpretation and tools that operate under the laws of physics.” Niel’s personal mission is to help people experience the world through his photography and gain a greater respect for our sometimes unnoticed and seemingly common surroundings.
