Dr. Bill Lutin was born in Tennessee, where he spent the first 30 years of his life and has lived in Georgia 30 years. He is a photographer who got his start 53 years ago working in scientific and medical photography in the days of wet chemicals and silver-based photo prints. Bill recently retired after a 31-year career in pediatric cardiology. During that time, Bill had the opportunity to travel extensively as a clinician and teacher, and he has always carried a camera with him, capturing images of our world and rendering it as he sees it onto prints. About 20 years ago, he began to concentrate on nature photography. Bill believes in the fundamental beauty of the world, the magic of light, and in the power that pictures have to make us feel good. He is an active participant in the Healing Artist Program at MCG, the Georgia Nature Photographers Association, the Audubon Society, the American College of Cardiology, the American Academy of Pediatrics, and the Sierra Club. His photographs have been published and recognized with awards in local and regional competitions. Bill is married to Kerry Kline and has two incredible and creative children, Mike and Mandie. Their help, advice, support, and encouragement gave him the impetus to share his images with the world. Bill can be contacted on Instagram @billlutin or by e-mail: brightideasphoto@gmail.com.
