Jim’s imagery has been featured multiple times in National Geographic’s Your Shot competition and he is a National Geographic Top Shot award winner. His photography has garnered awards and recognition from several international competitions, including The Smithsonian Magazine Awards, The International Photography Awards, The Sony World Photography Awards, The International Neutral Density Awards, The International Monochrome Awards and Nature’s Best Photography. His work has been published in magazines such as: Landscape Photography Magazine; Ideal Living; Southern Living Magazine; Savannah Magazine; Georgia Golf and Golf Digest.

Jim moved to The Landings in 2014 from California when he retired from Adobe Systems, Inc. as Vice President and General Manager of Adobe’s Creative Cloud.

A self-taught photographer, Jim began exploring the medium as entertainment during long business trips to Europe and Asia. He ventured into nature photography after moving to The Landings, honing his craft on the scenic vistas of the local area, and through extensive world travel.

Today, Jim’s priority is collecting images from around the globe, intended to stir awareness and offer glimpses of elements in nature and distant cultures that are rapidly changing, and in some cases at risk of disappearing entirely.

In addition to his busy travel schedule, Jim is a partner in Signature Gallery located in City Market, and is a board member of the LAA. His work may be viewed at www.jimguerard.smugmug.com or contact him directly at jimguerard@gmail.com.
