A
Seattle resident since 1969, Tom Haseltine is a full-time professional photographer who exhibits at galleries, juried shows and art festivals throughout the western United States. He teaches photographic processes as a Creative Uses Consultant for Polaroid, shoots for corporate accounts, stock agencies and many other advertising and assignment projects. He is an award-winning photographer whose work is found in many national and international collections.

Enjoying the challenges of many photographic avenues, Tom has worked for newspapers and ad agencies, shot corporate brochures, advertising and product images, portraiture, fashion, weddings, sporting events, travel and fine art. He is widely published through cards, calendars, magazines, posters, mousepads, newspapers and books.

Tom also markets one of the largest photographic note card lines in the Northwest, featuring both his own work and that of many prominent regional photographers.

He travels extensively in search of material when pursuing a theme or concept. Much of his portfolio is photographed in Europe, Egypt, Southeast Asia, Puerto Rico and Mexico, as well as the United States, giving a rich international flavor to his work. Tom emphasizes the perceptual mode of photography, striving for a photojournalistic, documentary, "roam and shoot" style in capturing our world: human interaction or condition, natural beauty, architecture, abstraction, humor and incongruities, and the contrasts of colors, textures and cultures.
