Shana Kaplan

In the vast expanses of the Western United States, where the rugged beauty of big mountains, big waters, and big skies converges, I find my purpose. As a digital landscape photographer, my work is a celebration of nature’s awe-inspiring landscapes, and a call to adventure and environmental stewardship.
My journey into photography is deeply rooted in a profound connection to the natural world. The Western U.S., with its expansive mountain ranges, expansive bodies of water, and expansive skies, serves as both my canvas and my inspiration. Each photograph is a visual narrative, inviting the viewer to embark on a journey through the untamed beauty of these landscapes.
The essence of my work lies in capturing the spirit of adventure. I am drawn to the challenge of navigating the untamed terrains, embracing the unpredictable elements, and seizing the fleeting moments that define the landscapes I explore. Through my lens, I aim to share the exhilaration of these experiences, inspiring others to embark on their own journeys of discovery.
Beyond the breathtaking aesthetics, my work carries a deeper message of environmental conservation. The landscapes I photograph are not just backdrops; they are fragile ecosystems facing unprecedented challenges. In highlighting their grandeur, I seek to foster a greater understanding of the urgent need to protect and preserve these natural wonders for future generations. The elements of big mountains, big waters, and big skies serve as the pillars of my visual narrative. As I traverse the Western U.S., my lens becomes a storyteller, weaving tales of adventure, beauty, and environmental responsibility.
Through my photography, I invite you to embark on a visual journey that celebrates the magnificence of our planet and inspires a collective commitment to its preservation.
