About Newman Nature Photography
The Picture Taker
Capturing Louisiana’s Wild Beauty
Growing up in the country, close to woods and water, I developed a deep love for nature: the buzz of bugs, the delicate flight of butterflies, the graceful movement of birds. This early connection became the heart of my work.
Today, I live on Black Bayou in Caddo Parish Louisiana, where I’m constantly surrounded by inspiration.
Creative Process
Through Nature’s Lens
Each image begins with quiet observation. Jerry often shoots during early mornings and golden evenings, moments when the world slows and the light dances gently across the bayou. His editing style is subtle and true to life, enhancing natural tones and contrast to reflect the scene as it was experienced.
Every photograph captures what Jerry calls “authentic moments”, real glimpses of Louisiana’s wild soul that can’t be staged or rushed.
