Datura Photography

Nature and Travel Photography by J.R. Robinson

About Me

I am a California-based photographer specializing in Landscape, Travel, and Wildlife Photography.

Over the years my wanderings have led me all over the U.S. and Internationally in search of beautiful images and new cultural and natural inspirations.
My Background

I first took an interest in photography as a diversion from my work as a filmmaker in Los Angeles, California.

Working on major television and motion pictures, still photography became an outlet and a way to explore my passion for creating interesting images and telling stories through them.
Love for the Outdoors

My search for new and exciting experiences to capture with my camera in turn led to a passion for the outdoors.

As I began to explore further afield, I became enraptured with nature, and with hiking and backcountry exploration in particular.

This love grew into a passion that led me into long-distance hiking, and I over the years I have undertaken several long trails around the world, including the Pacific Crest Trail and the Camino de Santiago, among others.
Photos with a Purpose

It is my hope that through my images, and the stories I tell with them, that I can inspire others to get out and develop a love of nature and exploration like mine, and harness that inspiration to affect change in the way we approach, manage, and appreciate the outdoors.

I hope to share, not only the pictures of the places I've been, but the experiences of being there, and the deep connections I've formed with all of them.
This Website

This website is organized by both geography and subject matter, with information about the places I've visited as well as personal retrospectives and ruminations inspired by those journeys.
