History

My name is John Caughlan and my wife and I reside in St. Cloud, Minnesota. I have been taking pictures of the North Shore since 2002. The first couple of years I used my father's Pentax 35mm camera. During this time I learned about lighting and composition, developing an "eye" for images. In 2004 I purchased my first digital camera, a Nikon D100, with the hopes of taking my photography to the next level. Since then I have expanded my photography equipment and subject matter to include portrait pictures.

Equipment

-Nikon D2Xs, D200, & D100 digital cameras
-Nikon Nikkor VR 24-120 lens
-Nikon Nikkor VR 80-400 lens
-Tamron AF 90mm MACRO 1:1 lens
-Adobe Photoshop CS2
-Epson Stylus 2200 printer

Goals

My photography goals include: to learn as much as I can from other photographers, pursue creative avenues within my photography, market my work on and off-line, and continue to provide new and updated images on my website. We enjoy feedback from people, please let us know what you think of our images.
