John Magnoski
For 26 years, photography has taught me to wait. To stand still long enough for an ordinary place to reveal what it holds.
I believe the created world points beyond itself, and I try to photograph it with that in mind.
My hope is that these photographs invite you to linger, and perhaps notice something you might otherwise have passed by.

John Magnoski is both a fine artist and a fine craftsman. His impeccable taste and attention to detail have turned my home into a showplace. I'm proud to own five large prints of his.

John’s fine art prints were the perfect way to elevate the spaces in our new home … a selection of our favorite places unique to the Midwest. We will definitely be buying again!
Nina // Milwaukee, WI -
The print is beautiful! … The way you captured the falling water seems to imply motion. The water is rendered in such a way that suggests a glimpse of something that could not be seen in person.

Journal
Thoughts and reflections on faith, family, beauty, culture, photography, and the ordinary things worth noticing.
Prints + Frames
I print each photograph with archival pigment inks on archival fine art papers to preserve its depth and tone for years to come. Custom hardwood frames, crafted in the U.S.A., are available to complement any piece.
