Wesley Berg
Wesley Berg specializes in wildlife photography and in particular on photographing the wide variety of mammals and birds that live in the San Juan Mountains of southwest Colorado. He lives in Silverton, Colorado and spends a lot of his time out skiing, biking, hiking, climbing and trail running in the mountains around Silverton. He almost always has his camera with him to capture images like that of a lynx and her offspring who followed his track while he was out backcountry skiing.
Wesley grew up in Colorado and developed a love for the mountains at an early age, climbing several of the 14-thousand foot peaks long before it became a popular pastime. He often carried a camera to take pictures of the fantastic scenery viewed from the top of mountains, but eventually gained an interest in photographing the wildlife he saw. He also incorporates one of his other interests into his larger framed photographs as he designed and builds the frames for his wildlife photos out of walnut and cherry hardwoods.
