OUR STORY
About Us
Warren King and Mary Heern are Arizona- based photographers who have a passion for capturing their offroad adventures and sharing their knowledge with others. They have a combined experience of over 30 years in commercial photography. After several years of working independently they joined forces in 2011 to open a commercial studio in the Midwest where they photographed thousands of clients, educated hundreds of photography students, and built a community of like-minded photographers to explore and create while building lifelong friendships.
Opportunities brought them to Arizona almost 8 years ago, which inspired them to explore the beauty of the Southwest. As their interest grew in overlanding they found themselves building up 2 Jeeps lovingly named Ansel and Adams in honor of Ansel Adams. Ansel was the founding father of landscape photography who helped establish our National Parks. Warren and Mary find great inspiration in his compositions, use of light and his dedication to his purpose. Their Jeeps allow them to travel deeper into the amazing landscapes, closer to wildlife and under darker skies. As their adventures continued to take them to beautiful locations, they started sharing their passion and knowledge of photography through social media with hopes of elevating others in the craft and inspiring them to get out and explore. Their passion for helping others led them to create a community of explorers in the Phoenix area who regularly get together and photograph the surrounding beauty.

Giving Back
As their portfolio of the Southwest grew, they started asking themselves how they can bring a greater purpose to their images? In a time where food insecurity has affected nearly 10% of people worldwide, their goal is to “Picture a World Without Hunger” by donating their proceeds from print sales to help feed those in need.
​
We have chosen to donate proceeds of our Fine Art Prints at ForLoveandCraft.com and the images in our Picture a World Without Hunger shop to Midwest Food Bank. They turn every $1 donated in to $30 of food to help feed the hungry. In addition to donations, Warren and Mary love to volunteer at Midwest Food Bank location here in Arizona.
