Roger H. Czerneda

Roger Czerneda’s love of photography began when he worked at his uncle’s camera store. After obtaining a Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Waterloo, Roger worked as an environmental chemist and computer programmer, all the while continuing to develop his photographic and graphic design skills. By 1986, Roger grabbed his camera and computer and began life as a professional, first in film and now totally digital. He’s made the leap from commercial and industrial photography to also express himself as a visual artist. Roger is drawn to subjects in the real world that inspire the imagination or that tell a story. www.photo.czerneda.com
