Stan Shelton Jr. was born 1984 in Lexington, KY where he was raised. Stan grew up with many interests in life, and after spending years working for a Structural Engineering company, he purchased his first Nikon DSLR in the summer of 2016, it was then his true passion for photography was recognized as infinite. Identifying himself as a landscape photographer he loves doing macro, night, street, wildlife, cityscapes, and portrait photography. He strives to be an artist that can capture 

the moments that one can only wish would last forever. Considering himself extremely lucky to call a passion a career, he finds much enjoyment from not only meeting and talking to someone new, but creating a true connection, an image with them. His self-learning and exploring method makes photography just as exciting now as his very first picture. As a traveling artist Stan is dedicated to bring back images to people that might not otherwise have an opportunity to witness the beauty.
