About

Kevin McNeal is a Washington St. photographer focusing on grand colorful landscapes that reflect the most unique places on earth. Capturing moments of magic light and transferring this on print, images behold a combination of perseverance, patience, and dedication to capture the images in ways unseen before. The stories of how these images are rendered come across in the feelings the images convey. Traveling all over North America with his wife by his side, shooting diverse landscapes and finding remote places to bring the message to the public that this Earth is worth saving. His award winning images can be seen in galleries and showings across the United States, and was recently selected to the Art Wolfe Art Gallery for the Environmental Photography Invitational. As well Kevin was the grand winner of the Landscape category for the Natures Best Magazine and was selected for the Smithsonian National Museum of History in Washington D.C.. Artist’s Statement “ I believe that the Earth shares secrets with us that only can be discovered by trying to understand our position on this planet. We are never fully intimate with the planet but are given brief moments that make our souls want more. These glimpses of nature’s power are fleeting and never the same twice. I also believe it is important to share with those who want it. The treasures that await us given the patience that is out there. What I try to do is bring some of that magic to my images to share with the rest of the world. Each of my images tells a story that everyone can relate to in some way whether is was success, fear, or challenging oneself to overcome obstaclesOut And About.

  1. Kevin,
    A friend of mine climbed Mt. Rainier in Washington State the morning of Aug 10th. She’s looking for a picture of the mountain from that morning. Do you have any photographs of Mt. Rainier from that morning? If so, would you be willing to sell a print? If not, do you know someone that might?

    Thanx,
    Robert Corrington

  2. I have only just discovered your work and am amazed! It’s like feeding my eyes 🙂 I’m also finding a huge amount of inspiration from your work for future embroideries.
    Thank you for pursuing your passion and allowing other people to share it.

  3. Kevin, Love your work, really exceptional stuff. I’m fascinated by your color balance and saturation and I know you’re a big advocate of on-camera filters and I assume you employ their use in most of your images, so hopefully you can help me make a significant purchase decision. I’m planning a trip to Olympic National Park in mid-September and intend to shoot the coastal haystacks, waterfalls and inland forests; can you recommend what my best options would be for Singh Ray filters? I currently have the 4×6 1 and 3 stop soft step NDG’s and recently purchased the Vari-N-Duo with primary intent for waterfall captures but I want to be able to enhance the water foregrounds and sunset skies on the coast like your Shi Shi beach shots. Would the LB Color Combo be your recommendation, sounds like you use it quite a bit? Your feedback is much appreciated. Happy Trails, Richard
