Bill Wallen - Instructor

Bill Wallen is local landscape and wildlife photographer.  While those are his specialties and what he enjoys most, he is most certainly a very diverse artist.

In 2004 he became a volunteer photographer for the United States Fish and Wildlife Service, photographing endangered wildlife and documenting the uses of Wild Life Refuges in the Mid-Atlantic region.

In addition, Bill has conducted Digital Photography Workshops in cooperation with several of the wildlife refuges.  He has been a co-instructor at the Fish and Wildlife’s National Conservation Training Center in Shepherdstown West Virginia.  There, he has taught teenagers digital photography that, in turn, taught them about conservation.  Photography, especially digital photography has become one of the most important ways of documenting our environment. 

Bill has spent a lifetime in photography receiving his first camera at the age of seven.  He started shooting Nikons in 1969 and now owns almost everything Nikon has made to date, with more to come.

Bill also began to work for Metromedia, now known as 20th Century Fox since 1988.   He is a technical director and works on film and television productions through out the country.
