About The Photographer

Artistic Statement

My goal is to always provide an excellent finished product and to approach each project with a fresh perspective. Whether the task is portraits, corporate office design, or the creation of a top quality home environment utilizing fine art photography, each challenge is unique.

Biography

Through the medium of photography in all its forms, Tobin Fraley offers a creative vision of the world bringing its diversity into focus. His goal is to inform, connect, communicate and share his inspiration with people who appreciate good art, good value and exceptional photography.

Fraley has been immersed in photography since picking up his father’s Leica in 1967. Over the subsequent years he has honed his skills in this medium while continuing to explore his interest in the history of carousels.

In 2003, he began exploring a small nature preserve near his home in Illinois, eventually producing a book titled 36 Acres. In addition, for 18 years he taught a wide variety of photography classes at the Chicago Botanic Garden.

I just finished a three week course on iPhone photography and can see such a drastic improvement in my photos. I highly recommend this class to everyone regardless of photography experience. You will leave with tons of tips and tricks, a handle on composition and some effective editing techniques to take your photos to the next level.
