For Nashville based fine-art photographer Justin Mrusek, a picture is worth far more than a thousand words. Each frame holds a lifetime of stories – and no two are the same.

“There are rules to photography,” Mrusek says. “But they are meant to be broken.”

A native of Southern Ohio who’s career began in Ireland, Mrusek is a self-taught craftsman unencumbered by convention, but a student of greatness nonetheless.

Called to reveal the extraordinary beauty which is often hidden in plain view, Mrusek travels the world with a camera and a singular vision. “A landscape doesn’t tell you what it wants to look like,” he says. “It allows me to present my truth instead.”

Losing himself behind the lens, Mrusek seeks a visceral connection with each of his subjects – whether that’s a windswept savannah or bustling city street, the tiniest link in the chain of life or the king of the jungle himself. A firm believer in letting photos breathe, his work is often raw and thought provoking, swirling with a conflicted mix of peace, movement and color which makes each shot unique.
