Jim Schlett's lifelong journey with photography began with a simple yet profound giftóa Polaroid camera received as a graduation present in grade school in his native New Jersey. This seemingly unassuming camera sparked a passion that would guide him throughout his life.
Building on this early fascination, Jim pursued his love for photography academically, earning an Associate of Arts degree in Photography and Art. His commitment to the craft extended far beyond the classroom, as he continually enriched his knowledge and skills by attending various photography workshops and presentations, including those at the prestigious Maine Media College.
He embarked on a remarkable journey exploring the breathtaking beauty of our National Parks. Jim's extensive travels have taken him to over 185 National Park sites, capturing the essence of these natural wonders through his lens. He has been selected as the Artist in Resident (AIR) at 12 different National Park sites
