About

Aster Field

Photographer

I photograph quiet landscapes and the long roads between them, chasing weather, first light, and the feeling of being very small in very large places.

About

My work sits between documentary and landscape photography. I plan trips around weather windows rather than landmarks, and I would rather wait three hours for the fog to move than take a sharp photo of a boring sky.

Everything here was shot on long walks, slow mornings, and a few very cold nights. If an image looks effortless, it probably took the most attempts.
