About the Artist

 

Hi, I’m Scott — a photographer, filmmaker, and storyteller with a deep love for capturing the world in ways that reveal its hidden beauty. For over thirty years, I’ve been chasing light, exploring abandoned towns, and documenting landscapes that carry stories of both the past and the present. Photography, for me, isn’t just about taking pictures — it’s about creating images that make people pause, feel something, and see the world differently.

When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll often find me serving my community as a volunteer firefighter with Lower Saucon Fire Rescue. That work is just as important to me as my art — it’s about being there when people need it most, and it’s shaped how I approach life, creativity, and storytelling.

In recent years, I’ve also taken to the road, living part-time out of a camper van and traveling to photograph national parks, historic landmarks, and remote places that most people overlook. Those adventures keep me inspired, and I share many of them on my YouTube channel where I talk about photography, drones, and the creative process.

At the end of the day, my work is about connection — to people, places, and moments in time. Whether I’m shooting a forgotten main street, a quiet lake at dawn, or an unfolding story in my community, I’m always searching for that spark of truth and beauty that makes an image unforgettable.

ARTIST STATEMENT

“If my photos have a mission, it is this: capture rarely viewed scenes and environments and present them in an interesting way. It may be a lonesome tree on an isolated hill or the dark interior of an abandoned building. Whatever the locale, on the best of days these images will stir up unexpected feelings and thoughts in the viewer.

My aim is to create minimalist images, reflecting man's relationship and eternal struggle with the elemental forces which shape our world and the intangible search for fragments of human meaning within that environment.” – Scott Krycia
