Steve Meier Photography

I create images to tell a story.  

​

For the past few years, I have considered myself a conceptual photographer.  I take an idea that I obtained from my thoughts, dreams, or a nightmare, and I express that as an image to you.   These images have meaning, they are my heart, but just as with a lot of things, the message is not always visible to everyone.  ​

​

I am an explorer.  I spend countless days outdoors on the trails and backroads, in search of something.  I spend countless hours on Google Earth to find those anomalies that might be interesting.   While out, I sometimes happen upon gorgeous scenery, and as a photographer, I must capture this moment!   With the exception of my Milky Way images, I have never headed out to just capture a landscape photograph.  

 

I love photographing forgotten and abandoned locations.  Our homes and offices are sugar coated to look how you want people to see you.  Once abandoned, these locations become raw.  I love the smells and sounds that come with these places.  The wind through the open rafters, the smell of wet wood, and the thoughts of how this place came to be in its current state.  The art on the walls, is not museum art, but life art.  They reflect the real lives of the artist, some, very talented.
