Bert Zickefoose. Capturing the essence of life through a lens.

Hi, I'm a mostly self-taught photographer with a passion that began back in high school, capturing moments on film for the yearbook. What started as a hobby quickly grew into a lifelong love of photography—especially when it comes to the outdoors and historical places that tell stories of the past.

With over 30 years of experience in law enforcement, I’ve developed a deep appreciation for detail, patience, and the importance of capturing moments that matter. My work often reflects my interests: the beauty of nature, the quiet dignity of historic sites, and the simple, powerful moments that might otherwise go unnoticed.

Outside of photography, I'm a proud spouse, parent, and grandparent. Family means everything to me, and those closest to me know I rarely go anywhere without a camera in hand.

Thanks for stopping by—I hope my photos inspire you to slow down, look a little closer, and appreciate the world around you.
