Greg Root
Greg Root’s photography journey began 15 years ago by taking classes at Crealdé. He started out photographing his two sons’ high school sports along with wildlife while on vacations. Over the years, his passion for the art has changed and he moved to photographing architecture and landscapes. He put this love and skills to work as part of two Documentary Photography Master Classes with Peter Schreyer --“The Las Vegas Project” in 2021, and “It’s a Wonderful Life in Winter Garden” in 2024. Over the years he discovered that his favorite subjects were architecture and night photography, which led him to his current love of photographing and educating others about the night sky.
