ABOUT THE PHOTOGRAPHER

Hello. My name is Scott Chandler, I am the owner and photographer of Milepost 318 Photography. I'm pleased to have you visiting my website and portfolio.

I'm a native-Nevadan born in Reno in 1974. I'm happily married to my wife and best friend, Nikki, of almost 10 years and reside today in northern Nevada. I've been capturing photos of various subjects since 1988 using both film and now digital camera equipment. I pride myself and my success on a personable demeanor, creative skills, collaborative networking with other photographers and artists, and a professionalism that contributes to each job's success. As a photographer, I am constantly seeking new challenges to place upon myself no matter the subject material or technique.

Many people ask how did I arrive at the name of 'Milepost 318 Photography'? Usually one of the first questions I get is "What does Milepost 318 mean?". Simply put, my family roots are based in railroading and my dedication to this site and business is tied to this. My early years in photography were of railroading action in the rugged Sierra Nevada mountain range of northern California; railroads use milepost markers as reference points to places and towns along their routes. Milepost marker 318 is a scenic place along the Feather River in northern California where I used to camp as a young man. But most importantly, it is where I proposed to my beautiful wife in 2000. For me, the name Milepost 318 is a way to never forget the experiences and way of life that I was raised with, and how it shaped me as the person I am today.

If you are looking for family, wedding, school, youth athletics, business, modeling portfolios, or executive portraiture, or if you see an image on my website that you'd like to have replicated for your home or office; please allow me the opportunity to serve you and exceed your expectations.

Thank you for visiting.
