Barstow Photography

Photography – Minneapolis

Visit my Fan Page here to view more of my work. My name is Erik Barstow and I’m from the St. Croix River Valley. I joined the Army Reserve when I was 17 and reenlisted in the United States Marine Corps when I was 19. I was honorably discharged when I was 23. I served as a correctional officer in the Minnesota Department of Corrections until I was 26. I went to video school at the Globe College of Minnesota School of business. I worked on various video projects for a few years. While I was doing that I was learning a lot about digital photography. I have been photographing since 2005 and I have never stopped. I specialize in night photography and High Dynamic Range photography. I also handle portraits for seniors, weddings, and kids. After I was injured in an auto accident last year. I have been focusing more art pieces than using it as an actual profession. I will shoot anything that I find great to look at. I love the night photos of my work. Especially the photos of the St. Croix River Valley. It's been the main source and inspiration of my photography. As you will see this through out my work. Large portion of this area is located in Taylors Falls, MN and St. Croix Falls, WI. I highly suggest visiting this beautiful area especially as fall approaches! Thanks for taking the time to look at my work! I am very happy to support RAW! I am more happy that RAW chose to support me!
