Scott Helfrich

Welcome! My Name is Scott Helfrich. I live in Deland, Florida and I love taking Nature Photos. I grew up in Southeast Michigan hiking and fishing with my Mom, Dad and two brothers. My Dad was always a Photographer, but I really didn’t get into it until after High School when I started hiking myself. While I always had a camera, my Dad was the photographer. Over the years I owned a good collection of film cameras from Nikon to Pentax, but never had the money to get a long enough lens. That changed, when cameras went digital and became affordable. I happened to I see photos made by a friend and just had to get a Digital SLR after owning a Canon point and shoot for a year. I own my Canon 40D,Canon 7D with a 70-200 f2.8, 100-400 f4.5 and a 300mm f2.8,as well as a Nikon D200,Nikon D300and a couple small lenses for 6 years now and just love it !!
Published in many magazines,including Ocean Living,Birdwatching,Florida Wildlife Federation,Birds and Blooms and others as well as winning contests including the National Wildlife Federation's Photo Contest and Florida Wildlife Federation's Photo Contest.
