About Tom Roy
My Background
What started as a hobby taking landscape photo's so long ago. Being taken under the wing of a Professional Photographer working for the Port of New Orleans who taught me composition, how to draw the eye to what's inportant.
Jump forward to Oklahoma, I was hired as a lab tech, machine and hand printing color and black and white photo's. I started shooting in the studio on a 70mm long roll, weddings with a Hasselblad 2X2 and 645.
Photography as Communication
I am surrounded both by natural beauty and interesting people. I use my camera to document the world and then capture images with a focus on the magic I find in daily life. My pictures of the circle, the drum and the dancers tell stories of our heritage, our belief's, hopes and prayers for our people.
Sharing Stories
Through my prints and photo books, I invite you to bring bits of my stories into your life and home. New prints are released regularly, so check back often. If you sign up for updates, you will get notified about new prints or books, sales, and shows.
