From the first moment Bruce Lescalleet picked up a camera, he felt deeply connected to the land God created. The journey in photography began while attending North Texas State University, where he immersed himself in the craft and honed his skills through location photography in and around Denton, Texas. In those early days, the magic of film, light meters, and hours spent in the darkroom shaped his technical skill and artistic vision. Every photograph captured was a story—an intimate conversation between Lescalleet and the beautiful world that God designed. As he honed his craft, he felt His presence in the land around him—the light that dances across the plains, the mountains standing tall in the distance, and the sunsets painting the sky in hues of gold and crimson. Every image is a reminder of God's creative power and His artistry.

Over the years, his passion for capturing the soul of Texas landscapes has only grown stronger. His lens has traveled from the rugged coastline to the endless plains and the lush, hidden corners of East Texas. Each shot, whether of wildflowers swaying in the breeze or a tree silhouetted against a setting sun, is a tribute to the raw beauty and quiet strength of the Lone Star State, a special place Bruce believes God created for us to enjoy.

Through his traditional approach to photography, he's come to understand that each image is more than just a picture—it's a gift from God, a fleeting moment frozen in time. These photographs are part of the Texas Photography collection. Feel the warmth of Texas sunlight on your skin, hear the whisper of the wind across the prairie, and embrace the timeless spirit of the land our Creator made. All glory to God for the creativity He has given him to capture this world He created.
