Russ Schleipman, a Vermonter, has traveled globally for corporate, advertising and editorial clients. The work on this site reflects the many opportunities he has had to apply his vision to a client's needs or to his own archive of images. He pays rigorous attention to design and composition, and strives to reveal the unusual in the usual. He loves the challenge of finding a visual surprise and feels that it's always there if you look hard enough. He has won multiple awards and has been featured in the Communication Arts Photography Annual over a dozen times.

He feels privileged to have been asked to shoot, among many others, the deep Sahara, the New York Stock Exchange, the Borneo rain forest, the Concorde, Tienanmen Square, the Vatican, MT Saint Michel, Scotland Yard, the streets of Havana, the flight deck of the USS America, steel mills, oil refineries, Patagonia and flowers for Vera Wang.

CBS Sunday morning did a story on Russ's shoot at Mt St Michel for the French Government Tourist Board.  His work has been chosen for the Communication Arts Photography Annual over a dozen times. He was very recently honored with the ...........award for excellence in photography by the Rockport Art association.
