Featured Photographer Bruce Berg



HOW BRUCE STARTED IN PHOTOGRAPHY....
 Bruce’s father was a good amateur photographer who passed his love of life and images to his son. Armed with a Kodak Brownie at age 10, Bruce loved capturing candids of people. Fast Forward a few decades. Now an Internationally acclaimed Master-Photographer and Portrait Craftsman, Bruce is considered by many of his peers to be one of the more creative photographers on the West Coast, creating images to fit a variety of styles. Lately, Bruce has been featured in two international professional photography publications, Professional Photographer and Rangefinder. Along with speaking to various state organizations, he has spoken at Society of Wedding & Portrait Photographers International convention in Las Vegas where over 12,000 photographers attended, and in London UK at the Society of Wedding and Portrait Photographers Convention. As the most Award-Winning photographer in Oregon (and named Oregon’s Photographer of the Year four times)







With over 20 years of experience as a creative portrait & Oregon wedding photographer, Bruce Berg brings a spirit of fun and elegance to the gorgeous image. Specializing in wedding , amazing high school senior pictures, or unique, artistic portraits for children and family.
Located in the Eugene, Oregon area, Bruce Berg Photography provides award-winning and stunning photography.
Bruce and his work were featured in USA Today and other national publications highlighting his specialties of wedding and fashion portraits, as well as photographs for Oregon high school seniors. Bruce has been awarded Oregon’s Photographer of the Year four times. Professional Photographers of Oregon awarded Bruce the title of “Oregon Wedding Photographer of the Year” three times, and he has received the award for “Best Wedding Album” in Oregon nine times along with “Best Wedding Portrait.” Bruce’s Senior photographs won Oregon’s “Best Senior Portfolio” five times in a row.

    If you want hands on learning register for a workshop and take your photography to the next level.

  4. The Free class is titled: Above the Noise.

    While I will spend about 15-20 minutes showing lighting and posing, the class will discuss how to get heard, get your name out there and tips on pricing your work.

    Although I go into much more extensive discussion about these topics during my 3 hour classes, I did want to help move all those who attend a way to move their business FORWARD and MAKE MONEY. You can have the greatest photography in the world, but if you aren't making enough money, you won't keep going.....hopefully I can help you do both!
