Saxon Holt

Saxon Holt is an award winning garden photographer of more than 20 books, and Fellow of the Garden Writers of America.

He owns PhotoBotanic, a garden picture resource for photos, e-books, and photography workshops. Workshops at garden clubs, botanic gardens, and symposiums have led to the e-book series – The PhotoBotanic Garden Photography Workshop.

The first book in the series, Good Garden Photography, was recognized with the 2015 Gold Award from the Garden Writers Association as the Best Book Overall for garden books published in 2014.

His work as a photojournalist increasingly focuses on the relationship between gardens and the land, seeking a sustainable aesthetic that can enhance both gardener and the earth. An advocate for authentic photos that inform viewers of realistic garden practices, he urges his students to tell their own stories with pictures, to think like a gardener.

Mr. Holt lives and gardens in Northern California where he has found the climate for both plants and adventuresome gardeners to be a constant source of inspiration.http://photobotanic.photoshelter.com
