Victor Ellison is a photographer from Boone, North Carolina. His photography featuring the Blue Ridge Parkway and Western North Carolina has received several awards and publication in such magazines as Smoky Mountain Living, Creative Quarterly The Journal of Art and Design, and Landscape Photography Magazine.
Growing up in an area with such diverse landscape, flora, and fauna, Victor developed a deep-seated love of nature. He has spent his life hiking the Southern Appalachians which has garnered him an intimate understanding of the land and its wildlife.
