About Lee Reeder

I am the proud father of Christopher, Natalie and Austen Reeder. Kelli Ashley, a transportation and logistics professional, is my mate. I have been photographing scenery and nature since the age of 12 while hiking and backpacking with my first cameras (a Mamiya, a Miranda and a Konica) in Southern California. I have been developing my own photos since the age of 15. At the age of 19, I began working professionally as a photojournalist in the U.S. Army in West Germany. Photography has been a big part of a lifelong journalism career that has put me at the editorial and creative helms of several national and international magazines and journals. Although writing and editorial management have been the bulk of my work, photography has always been my passion. In 2004, at the age of 47, I created my scenic and nature photography business, 1000 Words. Since then I have traveled extensively in the West, capturing moments in nature. People consistently tell me I have "the eye," meaning a different perspective that sets my photography apart from that of others. It's partly that, but it's also the result of much patience and hard work. Anyway, I hope it all results in me sharing my passion for the natural beauty of our world through my own perspective, and for your enjoyment.
