ABOUT
THE PHOTOGRAPHER
James A. Rasmussen
James A. Rasmussen
is an award-winning, nationally recognized photographer who displays and sells
his work in juried fine art shows. He is the recipient of numerous commendations,
including Best of Show.
Mr. Rasmussen earned a Bachelor of Arts in Design from the University of Illinois
and has been a professional photographer for over 25 years. Beginning his career
in photo-journalism and advertising photography, he found his passion in shooting
for his own pleasure and selling his images. This love of photography has taken
him across the country as he captures unique images of popular American landscapes,
cities, and sports teams. His work compels the viewer to take a fresh new look
at familiar scenes.
Mr. Rasmussen has blended a Hawaiian flavor into his collection of Americana.
He has captured the islands' most beautiful scenic wonders. Taking his expertise
across the ocean, Mr. Rasmussen has also preserved some of the greatest scenes
of Europe. Views of England, Ireland, France and Italy are an integral part
of the Rasmussen Photography Collection. Most recently, Mr. Rasmussen celebrated
with the World Champion Chicago White Sox by capturing the excitement of the
city's festivities in a number of photographs and photographic collages.
Rasmussen Photography clients receive high quality works of fine art. Mr. Rasmussen
notes that a true photographic artist only begins his work when the picture
is snapped. Images are produced to his unbending standards. Presentation is
an all-important factor. A firm believer that his work is best featured in double,
triple and open V groove mat formats, Mr. Rasmussen uses high quality mat board
and a professional mounting procedure. Each piece is individually hand cut,
signed, numbered and titled. Surrounded by a beautiful frame of either metal
or ornate woodwork, the result is a striking piece of art suitable for display
in your home or office.
Also captured in Mr. Rasmussen's photographs is his great love for his work.
The most impressive evidence of Mr. Rasmussen's reputation is that his works
of art grace the homes and offices of many enriched clients.
Working with both 35mm and 4x5 formats, Mr. Rasmussen is able to provide his
clients with the finest quality no matter what size the finished product will
be. If you would like to view his collection or contact him for a project, please
