Ian Raymond has worked in Laconia, New Hampshire for over thirty years.
He owns and operates Raymond Photography, a studio specializing in commercial, architectural, and industrial photography as well as fine art portraiture and landscapes, many of which are displayed in homes throughout New England.
His love of the landscape is closely tied to his work as an environmental activist. “In my travels I have come to truly appreciate the beauty that surrounds us, and how important the natural environment is to our quality of life. It is my hope that my photographs will serve not only as an historical record of a picturesque landscape, but also as an inspiration to others to preserve what we have been blessed with.”
Throughout his career he has enjoyed shooting such varied subjects as fine art nudes, artists and their art, musicians, authors, politicians, products and places for mail order catalogs and magazines, chocolate for Sylvie the chocolate lady on the Isle de St. Louis, stock photos of Bora Bora, Kauai, France, Scotland, England, and the American West.
Ian lives with his wife and two children in Sanbornton.
He is currently working on a book of images of the Lakes Region entitled:
“The Lakes Region, Rediscovering The Beauty Of Central New Hampshire”.
