About ObsidianPhotography.com – The Gallery
Welcome to Obsidian Photography!
Obsidian Photography first began in 2002 on the student servers at the University of Oregon and has been a nature photography site ever since. The site has changed over time, however the goal remains the same; to share and enjoy nature and landscape photography by L. A. Miller.
The name Obsidian Photography came from the location the photographer, L. A. Miller, was at on the first “official” photo shoot for the website. This mountain was the South Sister. The South Sister is one of three conjoined mountains with an abundance of obsidian veins, near the central Oregon town of Sisters, Oregon.

About L.A. Miller – The Photographer
L. A. Miller first began planning and going on photo shoots for the website in 2001. On a very small budget, their gear consisted of a Canon AE-1 Pro, a Canon 50mm f1.4 and the usual choice of Fuji Reala, Provia or Velvia films.The photographer currently uses a Sony A7, among other gear, and manual adapted lenses to keep the old filmic look.
