Will Poindexter was captivated by photography at an early age growing up in rural Georgia. He was fascinated in the way that a photograph could capture and freeze a moment in time, allowing the viewer to conjure his own story.

Today, his approached to photography is deeply rooted in his background as a classical painter. His photographs reflects a masterly of combining photography with the elements of classical painting, weaving stories with textures and light. Will continues to strive to capture imagery that reflects the Hawaiian culture and its beautiful scenery.
