David Richter
Artist | Professional | Photography
Germany
I am just a regular guy, a photographer, a caffeine-addict, a Thai food lover, the average beer-drinking bastard, an artist, a hater, adventurer, friend, dude and your scariest nightmare. Some say I am pretty funny and awesome but what do they know...

I do Facebook, so add me there if you care. Just click here and then the little thumbs-up will take you there. I also tend to add some random facts to my twitter every once in a while. (Mostly a shameless self-promotion, just be warned.)

I do sell my work on my website. I print on archival quality paper, offer image licensing at standard rates for print and web and also provide photo retouching services. Contact me if anything is up your alley.

I am easily inspired, I like to travel and to spend some quality time outdoors. I sleep in a tent in subzero temperatures if I know the light that following morning will be worth it and sometimes even when I know it's going to suck. Talking of which, hiking at night in bear country is not one of the things I particularly enjoy.

I have the weird feeling that the inspiration field is fairly small, so if you feel you need to know more about great friends, photography monsters and sometimes both in the same person, here you go: (in no particular order)... Galen Rowell, Marc Adamus, Ryan Dyar, Miles Morgan, Stephen Oachs, Brian Rueb, Guy Tal, Joshua Cripps, Floris van Breugel, Jim Patterson, Scott Davis, Zack Schnepf, Chip Phillips, Jason Edlund, Justin Reznick, Kevin Pieper, Vincent Favre, Kah Kit Yoon, Seung Kye Lee, David Bank, Ian Plant, Joseph Rossbach and more. That will keep you busy for a while, googling these guys. ;-)

Favourite genre of music: Hip Hop, Acoustic, Rock
Favourite photographer: Ansel Adams, Galen Rowell, Marc Adamus
Favourite style of art: Dramatic landscape photography
Operating System: Mac and PC
MP3 player of choice: iPod touch 4G
Shell of choice: Soft ;-)
Personal Quote: I drink coffee, so I can do dumb things faster.
Interests
... yet another shameless plug.

Sorry for the absence as of late. Things have been fairly crazy around the office but here's some exciting news for me. (and I hope it's somewhat interesting for at least some of you, too.)

Since its launch, I have been active on Google+. Recently, the great photographer Ivan Makarov announced an idea to make a book featuring the growing community of Google+ photographers, offer it for sale and donate the profits to a charity.

Fast forward a couple of weeks, amazing efforts on the side of Ivan and the 15 volunteers helping putting this together, 523 contributing photographers, countless votes, discussions and hang-outs and there it is: plusonecollection.com/.

The Limited Edition is $200 and available till Feb-20-2012. So grab your copy before that date and receive a 200-page book with 193 fine art prints on museum quality paper and a special print with each order; one of the 193 images in the book, is my image "Granite Reflections", which can be seen here:



and in the Bay Area NBC feature here: youtu.be/xULDmaEIeyg [0:35-0:38] (Special thanks to Thomas Hawk for recording it and making it available!)

plusonecollection.com/purchase/purchase-print-book/

All net profits from the sale of the book (normal and limited edition), e-book and app (coming soon and featuring all 523 photographs.) will be donated to the charity KIVA.


Then, I have been fortunate to contribute to an amazing online magazine called CameraPixo.
Be sure to check it out if you have a chance. The latest version can be found online here: issuu.com/camerapixo/docs/camerapixo17/ and will very soon be available for download. My portfolio is on page 260-279.

Ready, set, go.

Best,
David
